There were not enough MOT tests of Maserati Grancabrios in 2025 to publish reliable figures: we need at least 1,000 tests of cars aged three and over. Cars have their first MOT at three years old, so newer models appear once they reach that age. How we work out MOT figures.
Registrations of Maserati Grancabrios for the first time in Great Britain peaked at 151 in 2010. In 2025, 13 were registered.

DVSA lists 4 safety recalls for the Maserati Grancabrio since 1992, the first in 2012. The most recent was launched on 5 July 2019.
All 4 Maserati Grancabrio recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Maserati Grancabrio. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
