This 2023 Maserati GranTurismo Mule Looks Like It’s from a Cartoon

No, your eyes are not deceiving you and the adjacent spy photos have not been tampered with Photoshop or some other visual trickery.

Your next Granturismo wrapped up as a Guilia QF test mule

Would this confirm that it will be built on Alfa Romeo's Giorgio platform?

I like that. I sticker that says “drive on track only” and then drive it on the road. Things are normal in Italy.

I imagine it would use the Alfa platform, as they wouldn’t want to engineer the whole drive train for one model.

Exciting, obviously that is a Giulia so will not look like it in final guise

 

[safrane]

That does look awfully large... last thing the GT needed was to get any bigger.

 

[midlifecrisis]

It's all probably staged just to build up the desireability. I'm sure BL test drivers did the same with the Morris Ital by nipping into a Happy Eater for the photographers to get decent shots...

It is a meaty wide boy Guilia for sure

I don't get how that becomes a 2 door GT, but I know nothing.

It’ll be a mule for running gear, bodywork isn’t relevant. Wheelbase is longer than a Gulia, mainly at the front end, it also looks like it’s got a lot more cooling it wouldn’t surprise me if it’s got the big V8 rather than the Alfa V6.

Photos are from Sweden...

And where do you think the chap driving it is from?

 

[Ryandoc]

Encouraging. Obviously that thing shared about 5% of what it’ll look like and is purely testing out all the stuff under the body.

Please please don’t **** it up Maserati

I’m going ‘wedge’ for the final design. That’s what happened last time the French were involved.

And brakes that don’t work when the engine isn’t running?

Its likely going to be an updated Alfieri design with MC20 elements thrown in. A wedge shaped like the Khamsin or Indy would be sweet.
