The Ferrari Portofino – a luxury GT like nothing we have ever seen before!
The Ferrari Portofino is a new V8 GT model which takes its name from one of the most beautiful cities in Italy - Portofino. Just like the new model of Ferrari, this picturesque port is synonymous with elegance, sport and supreme luxury. Allow yourself to be seduced by the aggressive design and comfortable interior of this exclusive car.
The Ferrari Portofino has a top speed of 320 km/hour
In unmistakable Rosso Portofino red, this luxury car has a top speed of 320 km/hour, can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/hour in 3.5 seconds and has 600 bhp hiding under the bonnet. These unique properties make it the most powerful convertible around, combining the advantages of a folding hard-top roof and spacious cockpit. The two rear seats offer the unique opportunity for extra passengers to enjoy short trips.
Luxury innovation and technological improvement
The fully aluminium chassis represents a significant reduction in weight as compared to the car’s predecessor – the California T. The car has modified air-conditioning for driving with the roof down and a wind deflector decreases cabin noise by 30 percent.
The famous Ferrari V8 turbo has taken on new components with the new model as well as new software to manage the drive unit. You will find there a new intake system and redesigned pistons. The characteristic snarl of the Ferrari V8 has also been improved, something you will in particular appreciate when driving downhill.
The major revolution also relates to the geometry in the whole of the exhaust system. The new threaded one-piece exhaust header reduces losses. The gears offer a higher level of acceleration and fuel consumption has significantly dropped compared to the previous model.
Improved dynamics for driving comfort
The new technological improvements have also left their mark on the dynamic characteristics of the Ferrari Portofino.
The third-generation electronic rear differential (E-Diff3) has been integrated with F1-Trac, improving mechanical grip and control of the car on the limit.
The Ferrari Portofino is also the first GT in the series to be equipped with an EPS system (Electric Power Steering). The magnetorheological damping system (SCM-E) has been improved and the result is an even more dynamic and responsive car which offers superior ride comfort.
Design of the Ferrari Portofino: aggressive, elegant and sporty
The Ferrari Design Centre is responsible for the aggressively shaped luxury design with two possible configurations: a coupé-convertible with a retractable hard top. This adds extra sleekness to the silhouette, lending it a sportier character without impinging on its elegance and dynamism.
The large radiator grille stretches from edge to edge and the new headlight assembly gives it a wild appearance.
An interior which all cars long for
Special attention was also paid to comfort on board, which is guaranteed by a plethora of new features.
The interior catches the eye at first glance with its 10.2” touchscreen display, new air-conditioning system, new steering wheel and extremely comfortable electrically adjustable seats with a new backrest design boosting legroom for rear seat passengers.
The moment you get behind the wheel, you know what it feels to be unique. Take the steering wheel into your hands, press down on the pedals and enjoy a drive in this timeless red arrow with a prancing horse on the bonnet!
The unique Ferrari Portofino was on show at the Frankfurt Motor Show and will be on sale in the luxury Scuderia showroom, the exclusive sales and service branch of this brand and the Maserati brand in the Czech Republic. Its price will be somewhere around EUR 190,000 excluding tax.
