Beneteau Gran Turismo 50 brings Alpine collaboration and crossover luxury to NZ

1 min read

Combining bold design, luxury finishes, and innovative crossover styling, the Beneteau Gran Turismo 50 arrives as a genuine step forward for power cruising in New Zealand.

Sitting above the well-regarded Gran Turismo 35 and Gran Turismo 40 in the Beneteau lineup, the Gran Turismo 50 represents the brand's continued evolution of the express cruiser. Developed in collaboration with Alpine, this limited-edition model brings sharper performance, distinctive styling, and a refined approach to onboard luxury. The design philosophy draws on Japanese principles of Kanso, the pursuit of simplicity, and Yugen, a sense of grace, with every element both inside and out shaped by that balance of sophistication and purpose. The result is a boat that blends power, elegance, and innovation in a way that feels genuinely considered rather than merely assembled.

For Beneteau, the Gran Turismo 50 also marks a milestone, drawing on more than 140 years of boatbuilding heritage and an ongoing commitment to craftsmanship and forward thinking. With that foundation behind it, the Gran Turismo 50 is well placed to make its mark on the New Zealand luxury cruising market.
