The Gran Turismo represents an entirely new way of producing bus seats. Based on widely differing requirements, the Italian company Grammer S.r.l. has developed a seat that surpasses the EU safety demands, while also improving comfort. The weight of the steel seat frame has been cut by 30 percent, which corresponds to 15 percent of the entire seat weight.

Although at first sight the Gran Turismo looks just like an ordinary bus seat, it actually represents a new generation compared to the heavy welded steel seat structures fitted to almost all touring coaches.

“The Gran Turismo undoubtedly represents a new generation of bus seats,” considers Innocenzo S. Carbone, Managing Director of the company. “A new generation of seats for the next generation of buses.”
