Maserati GranTurismo Convertible to be launched next year

Maserati needs a third product to reach its 12,000-car sales target by 2011. "The convertible will go on sale in March 2009, but we have not decided yet at which show we will unveil it," a company source told Automotive News Europe at the auto show here.

With the addition of the GranTurismo convertible, Maserati expects to surpass 10,000 sales in 2009, up from about 9,000 units anticipated this year.
