GranTurismo is the highest production category for competition racing and rallying, and as this seat is our top of the line model, we found the name fitting.
Inspired by the Recaro Rallye II, GTS Classics re-engineered and redesigned this seat. Recaro had designed this seat model to offer a bucket seat with maximum side support that has the ability to flip forward for easier access to the rear seats without the necessity of using a tilting bracket. The seat only came as an OEM in the Scirocco Cup Cars from 1976 and in the Opel Manta and Ascona 400.
We created the GranTurismoSport with a steel tube frame that takes up all the mechanical support, the mountings and the hinges with regulator. The steel tube frames are laminated together with the fiberglass covers to create a strong, durable seat which offers support, comfort and convenience.
The GranTurismoSport offers high lateral support, high knee support and duralastic belts in the bottom and in the back for the additional comfort on longer events and drives. This classic design and the optional unique headrest set this GranTurismoSport apart from all other classic seats and is an original and exclusive GTS Classics design. Singer vehicle design offers a similar seat in their exclusive cars but all electric, while we kept it classic and manual.
The GranTurismoSport is available in fabric, leatherette or leather, with any combination of materials and patterns. Grommets are available in nickel or brass to let you design the seats just like in the “Singer†cars. Available openings for the submarine belt, variety of headrests and application for the Trips device.
