Maserati has officially revealed its performance-oriented GranTurismo S, following the leak of two images online. The GranTurismo debuted a year earlier at the European show, so it seems fitting this sportier variant will break cover at the same venue.

The GranTurismo S is powered by a 4.7 liter V8 in place of the regular GT's 4.2 liter unit. Output is 440 horsepower — a nice boost from the standard 405 horses.

An advanced MC-Shift dual-clutch transmission will replace the ZF six-speed automatic.

New high-power Brembo brakes will improve stopping distance. The system features front brake discs made with dual-cast technology — a dual casting of cast iron and aluminum, paired with aluminum mono-bloc 6-piston brake calipers

The exterior has some subtle visual enhancements, and the interior is upholstered in Poltrona Frau leather and Alcantara for increased luxury.
