What is Grand Tourer (GT)?

It is usually a coupé or convertible with two or four seats. The focus is on comfort and stable cruising rather than outright track performance. The GT badge is also used for sporty trim levels. Large boots for luggage are a typical feature of a true GT.

How it works

A strong engine, a refined suspension and a well-equipped cabin make long trips relaxed.

Why it matters for your car

Running costs for tyres, brakes and insurance can be high. Rear seats in four-seat GTs are often small.
