So Levante late 15, Alfieri late 16 & GranTurismo late 17. I wonder where each will be built?

 

[Andyk]

So the GT will be with us for another 3 years...

 

[bigbob]

Who knows? I wish Maserati would give clarity on GranTurismo cessation (or not).

I read somewhere that the Levante is being built at Turin so Modena for the two Coupes?

 

[dem maser]

I think same...Modena is the coupes

I don't think the reporter said that, just that you can still buy one at the moment, and that the replacement will be along in 2018.

HRO told me last week that Maserati told them GranTurismo production will stop end of next year.

If so suggests that Alfeiri will be built at Modena.

2015 with a 2ish year wait for a replacement....saying that it the other cars in the range come out then they will have a 4 car line up without it.

We'd discussed this a while back - I think it will have more to do with global emissions targets than anything else. The GT's engine isn't very efficient when compared to the new stuff.
