Granturismo generations, and what changed
These boundaries are not copied from a brochure — they fall out of the measurements. Where the Granturismo's length or wheelbase jumps between consecutive model years the platform changed: a facelift moves a bumper by centimetres, a new generation moves the whole car — for the Granturismo that gives 2 distinct generations below.
| Generation | Length | Wheelbase | Weight | vs previous | Weight change |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2008-2022 | 488 cm | 294 cm | 1866 kg | - | - |
| 2023-2026 | 496 cm | 293 cm | 2028 kg | +8 cm | +162 kg |
Between 2008 and 2026 the Granturismo gained 8 cm in length (+1.6%) and 162 kg in weight (+8.7%). Cars did not so much grow as thicken — crash structures, airbags and equipment weigh more than the metal they replaced, and on the Granturismo that is 162 kg against 8 cm. Full dimensions by year →
