Specifications

Rear view

Engine and transmission

The F8 Tributo uses the same engine from the 488 Pista, a 3.9 L twin-turbocharged V8 engine which has a power output of 720 PS (530 kW; 710 hp) and 770 N⋅m (568 lb⋅ft) of torque,[5][6] making it the most powerful conventional V8 powered Ferrari produced to date.[2] The transmission is a 7-speed dual clutch unit with improved gear ratios.[6]

Handling

Software

Several new software features are installed on the F8 which are controlled via the manettino drive-mode switch on the steering wheel. The car is equipped with Ferrari's latest Side Slip Angle Control traction- and stability-control program. Additionally, the Ferrari Dynamic Enhancer, an electronic program for managing drifts, can now be used in the Race drive mode.[6]

Performance

Claimed manufacturer performance for the F8 Tributo is 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.9 seconds, 0–200 km/h (0–124 mph) in 7.6 seconds, with a top speed of 340 km/h (211 mph).[1] Ferrari also stated that the Tributo's downforce has been increased by 15 percent as compared to the 488 GTB.[6]

Design

Interior

The lower fascia has been redesigned, taking several cues from the Pista, namely the S-Duct. The hood has been re-sculptured and the headlights have been redesigned to be more compact. The latter feature allows for additional air intakes above the headlights. The car also features quad taillamps, a feature that was last seen in the V8 lineage on F430. At the rear, it sports a louvered clear engine cover which pays homage to the F40 and a wrap-around rear spoiler inspired by the 308 GTB. The interior has received minor updates as well: the dash and instrument housing are new, and the two-tone color scheme from the 488 is also gone.[7] An 8.5 inch passenger touchscreen display is also standard as a part of the HMI (Human Machine Interface).[2]

Variants

F8 Spider

The F8 Spider' is an open top variant of the F8 Tributo with a folding hardtop as seen on its predecessors. The top opens or closes in 14 seconds and can be operated with speeds up to 45 km/h (28 mph).

The Spider's drivetrain is shared with the Tributo. Performance figures include acceleration from 0–100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.9 seconds and from 0–200 km/h (124 mph) in 8.2 seconds. Top speed is unchanged from the coupé at 340 km/h. Dry weight of the Spider is 1400 kg. The boot capacity allows 200 litres of luggage.[8][9]
