The F8 Tributo, created by the Centro Stile Ferrari, builds a bridge to a new design language that continues to emphasize Ferrari's typical high performance and aerodynamic efficiency. With 720 hp and a record-breaking specific power output of 185 hp per liter, this is the most powerful V8 engine in a Ferrari production car to date. The new Ferrari F8 Tributo, which will undoubtedly captivate visitors to the Geneva Motor Show, is therefore a tribute to this powerhouse and the car's uncompromising design.
Successor to the 488 GTB
The V8 is installed in the new two-seater in the center-rear position. Ferrari has developed this architecture, which ensures optimum weight distribution, to perfection in more than 40 years of tinkering. The F8 Tributo thus takes the place of the 488 GTB, enhances its performance and provides even better control when driving at the limit as well as greater comfort on board.
It also boasts increased aerodynamic efficiency (10 %) and the latest generation of the Side Slip Control System (SSCS 6.1). In addition, the dry weight has been reduced by 40 kg compared to the 488 GTB. This increases responsiveness and driving pleasure without compromising comfort in the interior.
