The Maserati GranTurismo, unveiled to the world at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, set a record for the most quickly developed car in the auto industry, going from design to production stage in just nine months.

The reason being that Italian sports car brand, Ferrari, after selling off Maserati brand to the Fiat Chrysler Group (now Stellantis), took the designs of the proposed replacement of the Maserati Coupé and after some modifications, launched it as the Ferrari California in 2008, leaving Maserati with no Coupe.

After a nine-month development period – from design to production stage – to replace the Coupe Ferrari had been developing for Maserati before the split, the new Maserati GranTurismo was launched for the 2007 model year.
