Beneteau’s Gran Turismo 50 just dropped a tease…and now we want more! 
But not until it's World Premier - Paris Nautic Show on November 26th-30th, followed by a prime spot at BOOT Dusseldorf in January.

Since the launch of the New Gran Turismo range, Beneteau has finally dropped the first teaser of the all-new Gran Turismo 50. While her sister ships, the GT35 and GT40, made their debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025, 36° Brokers, along with the rest of the boating world, have been eagerly awaiting the GT50’s arrival. And just to keep everyone on edge, Beneteau just released a couple of teaser images that are well worth a look.

Finished in Alpine Blue, the sneak peeks give nothing away except pure anticipation.

This new design signals a bold evolution of its express cruiser line. This next-generation GT delivers a striking crossover design, improved ergonomics, and a far more versatile onboard layout, all built around the changing needs of today’s coastal boaties.

A New Direction for the Gran Turismo Line

The New Gran Turismo marks a major shift from previous GT models. While retaining the sleek, sporty lines the range is known for, the new design introduces smarter use of space and a seamless onboard flow.

Key improvements include:

• Open-flow main deck: Earlier GTs featured segmented areas; the new GT50 connects cockpit, lounge, and helm into a unified living space.
• Adaptive layout: Underway, the GT50 feels secure and performance-driven. At anchor, it transforms into a spacious, villa-like environment.
• Three-season helm station: A major upgrade providing enhanced comfort and adaptability in changing conditions  ideal for New Zealand’s varied climate.
• Refined ergonomics: Wider passageways, cleaner transitions, and improved helm visibility create a noticeably more intuitive onboard experience.

The result is a Gran Turismo that feels bigger, smarter, and far more lifestyle-focused than its predecessors.

Stylish, Versatile, and Designed for Real Boating

Behind its aggressively stylish profile, the GT50 is built for true versatility. Expansive social zones link through a free-flowing main deck, culminating in its standout three-season helm. Whether cruising, entertaining, or relaxing at anchor, the boat adapts effortlessly to the moment.

What This Means for Kiwi Boaties

The new GT50 is built for New Zealand’s coastal lifestyle, with an adaptable interior that makes day trips and weekend escapes effortless. Generous living spaces, comfortable sleeping areas, and easy movement onboard keep overnighting simple, while the three-season helm and refined ergonomics deliver confidence and comfort whether you’re cruising the Gulf, hopping to Waiheke, or heading north to the Bay of Islands.

A New Benchmark for the Gran Turismo Range

With its modern crossover identity, elevated ergonomics, and innovative layout, the new Beneteau Gran Turismo 50 represents a major step forward for coastal cruising. Stylish, spacious, and exceptionally versatile, it sets the tone for the next chapter of the Gran Turismo line  and for boaties wanting more from their on-water lifestyle.
