Boating News | May 2025

Introduction of Redesigned Gran Turismo Range

Beneteau has announced the upcoming launch of a redesigned Gran Turismo range of express cruisers, with three new models — the Gran Turismo 35, 40, and 50 — set to debut within six months.

The models are designed to offer a crossover experience, combining performance with luxury. Key features include expanded exterior areas, minimalist styling inspired by Japanese design principles, and a focus on user connectivity and comfort. Beneteau’s collaboration with Alpine, the high-end sport speciality brand, will also result in limited-edition models across the new range.

Design Philosophy and Features

The new Gran Turismo series has been developed to meet changing customer expectations, offering 30% more exterior space and a layout that emphasises connection to the water. Solar power, lithium batteries, and gyro stabilisation are standard features, enhancing comfort both underway and at anchor.

Eric LeVine, Motor Yachts Sales Director, described the new Gran Turismo range as embodying “Sport-Lux”, aiming to provide open spaces with a premium feel. Product Manager Robert Chaffer highlighted the design philosophy rooted in simplicity and grace, aligning with the original express cruiser ethos of sleek, well-proportioned craft.

Public Debut and Availability

The Gran Turismo 35 and 40 will make their public debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September 2025. All three models, including the flagship Gran Turismo 50, will be on display at the Düsseldorf Boat Show in early 2026.
