2026 BENETEAU Gran Turismo 40 - On Order

Born from over a century of heritage and modern innovation, the all-new Gran Turismo 40 redefines express cruising. Designed by Michael Peters Yacht Design with styling from Andreani Design, this sleek performance cruiser delivers exhilarating speed, impeccable comfort, and refined, automotive-inspired aesthetics—an elevated cruising experience from the moment you slide behind the helm.

Exterior Design

On deck, the Gran Turismo 40 provides exceptional outdoor living. The expansive cockpit with dual L-shaped seating flows seamlessly to the aft swim platform, while the optional foredeck sunpad with flip-up seating creates the perfect space for relaxing at anchor. 

Interior Design

Calm interior spaces with ambient lighting embrace the new Gran Turismo’s design ethos of simplicity. The forward section flows to an island berth with ample storage, while the convertible midship berth offers a lovely, versatile space for movie night, storage, a quick nap, or whatever you feel up to. The full-size head and shower will remind you of the comforts of home. Thoughtful touches like ambient lighting, integrated reading lights, and soft-close drawers highlight the boat’s attention to detail, making the Gran Turismo 40 a perfect blend of sophistication and practicality for modern cruisers.

With twin Yanmar 370 hp inboard engines, the Gran Turismo 40 delivers thrilling speeds paired with a helm console of masterful ergonomics. Whether you’re on an open-throttle run to your local spot or on a lazy champagne sunset cruise, the smooth ride and perfect layout will never cease to amaze both captain and guests.
