Ferrari's New Grand Tourer Model: Amalfi
Italian automotive giant Classic Ferrari for sale, has introduced its new grand tourer model Amalfi to car enthusiasts, replacing the Roma model that was quietly discontinued last year. Named after Italy’s dazzling Amalfi coast, this new model begins a brand new era in the segment that the brand defines as the entry-level.
Upper Class Entry Level
Although it carries the “entry-level” label, the Amalfi has a nod to the upper class with technical improvements and design evolution. Based on the infrastructure of the Roma, Ferrari engineers have increased engine performance, optimized the transmission and completely revamped the interior. These changes make the driving experience even more exciting.
V8 Engine Even More Fierce
Under the hood of the Amalfi is an updated version of the twin-turbocharged 3.9-liter V8 engine. This unit, whose power has been increased by 20 horsepower to 631 horsepower, accelerates the vehicle from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3,3 seconds. The new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission offers smoother and faster gear changes, taking driving pleasure to the next level.
Design: Modern and Aggressive
Although the Amalfi is reminiscent of Rome in general terms, it has a much more modern and aggressive design when you look at the details. The widened lower air intake, the reshaped headlight structure, the license plate slot integrated into the rear diffuser and the sharpened body lines reflect the model's contemporary character. Here, Ferrari seems to have succeeded in combining the elegance of the past with the lines of the future.
The Cabin Revolution: From Digital to Physical
The Amalfi’s interior has also undergone a radical transformation. The ramped structure separating the driver and passenger has been removed, replaced by a simple, driver-focused cockpit. The most striking element is the return of physical buttons. Among these details that will please Ferrari enthusiasts who are wary of digitalization, the aluminum start button and the traditional 10,25-inch infotainment screen stand out. The new steering wheel is designed to maintain a completely mechanical feel.
Price Not Announced
Ferrari has yet to release an official price for the Amalfi, but considering the price tag of its predecessor, the Roma, was around $250, it is expected that the Amalfi will enter the market at a similar price point. This will continue to be a hot topic among car enthusiasts.
