Beneteau is set to revolutionize the world of express cruisers with the new Gran Turismo range, three completely redesigned models that combine sportiness, elegance, and innovation in a fresh interpretation of fast cruising. Designed to deliver authentic emotions without sacrificing comfort and ease of use, the new Gran Turismo models will be perfect both for day trips and for those who wish to enjoy long cruises in style.
The world premiere of the Gran Turismo 35, 40, and 50 is expected at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025, where Beneteau will unveil an all-new design featuring even more generous spaces, flowing lines, and an aesthetic capable of standing the test of time without losing its charm. The new range is born under the sign of "Sport-Lux," a philosophy that blends performance with an atmosphere of discreet luxury. The outdoor spaces are designed to promote conviviality and direct contact with the sea, while the interiors recall the elegance of a true floating villa, with refined, functional spaces perfectly organized for an uncompromised onboard lifestyle.
Starting from a completely new creative approach, Beneteau's designers were inspired by the Japanese principles of Kanso and Yūgen to create hulls with clean, light, and extremely balanced lines. The result is a harmonious blend of power and elegance, enhanced by a masterful use of light that highlights every detail, inside and out. Great attention has also been paid to the helm station, designed to offer a sporty and responsive driving experience. All controls are within easy reach, ensuring efficiency, autonomy, and maximum control for a total connection with the boat.
The exterior style of the new Gran Turismo models stands out for its modern and sleek design, immediately recognizable at first glance, while every aesthetic choice on board conveys a sense of refined exclusivity, crafted to satisfy even the most demanding owners. An additional touch of exclusivity comes from the collaboration between Beneteau and Alpine, the iconic French sports car brand. In the coming months, the limited editions "Gran Turismo Alpine Edition" will be revealed—special models that blend Alpine's racing DNA with Beneteau's nautical expertise, creating unique boats with a bold character.
With this new range, Beneteau ushers in a new era for express cruisers, strengthening its leadership with a proposal that combines innovation, passion, and meticulous attention to detail. For more information, please contact the NSS Yachting staff.
