The 458 Italia is the latest incarnation of the mid-rear engined berlinetta. While it’s true that every Ferrari is innovative by definition, it’s equally true that in the course of the Prancing Horse’s history, certain cars have marked a genuine departure from the current range. This is very much the case with the Ferrari 458 Italia, which is a massive leap forward from the company’s previous mid-rear engine sports cars. The new model is a synthesis of style, creative flair, passion and cutting-edge technology. Characteristics for which Italy as a nation is well known. For this reason Ferrari choose to add the name of its homeland to the traditional figure of representing the displacement and number of cylinders.The Ferrari 458 Italia is a completely new car from every point of view: engine, design, aerodynamics, handling, instrumentation and ergonomics, just to name a few. The Ferrari 458 Italia’s interior is another area of the car that exalts its sporty personality. The driver is welcomed by a new layout and a revolutionary ergonomic interface where te main controls are all clustered on the steering wheel.

A two-seater berlinetta, the Ferrari 458 Italia, as is now traditional for all Ferrari’s road going cars, benefits hugely from the company’s Formula 1 experience. This is particularly evident in the speed and precision with which the car responds to driver inputs and in the attention focused on reducing internal friction in the engine for lower fuel consumption than the F430, despite the fact that both overall displacement and power have increased. However, Ferrari’s track experience makes its presence felt in the 458 Italia not only in terms of pure technological transfer but also on more emotional level, because of the strong emphasis on creating an almost symbiotic relationship between driver and car. The 458 Italia features an innovative driving environment with a new kind of steering wheel and dashboard that is the direct result of racing practice. Once again input from Michael Schumacher – who was involved from the very start of the 458 Italia project – played an invaluable part.

The Ferrari 458 Italia’s Pininfarina design provides further evidence of the complete departure from the past that this new car hails. The Ferrari 458 Italia has a compact, aerodynamic shape, underscoring the concepts of simplicity, efficiency, and lightness that inspired the project. As with every Ferrari, the car’s styling has been very heavily influenced by the requirements for aerodynamic efficiency, as can be seen from the downforce of 140 kg at 200km/h generated by the new model.

The car’s soundtrack is also typical Ferrari, with an exciting, powerful growl emerging from the engine before it channels through to the exhaust’s three rear tailpipes. The 458 Italia is equipped with the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission which increases performance whilst providing very smooth shifts even at full throttle. The engineers have developed specific, sportier gear ratios to match the power and torque curves of the new V8, guaranteeing high torque even at lower engine speeds and allowing the car to reach its maximum speed in top gear.

This new Ferrari is also a major leap forward when it comes to cutting emissions. Despite the fact that the new engine is significantly more powerful than the V8s that preceded it, the Ferrari 458 Italia produces just 320g/km of CO2 and fuel consumption is 13.7 l/100 km (combined cycle), the best in the entire segment.

There are a lot that can be told from a sport ride as classy as FERRARI. Even the name that has been a legend from various circuits and World  over racing events. Its task keep increasing.

Appears as the icon in the world sport’s car circuits, that is specifically to gather the highest horse power number,  of course this dark grey Ferrari 360 Spider has to improve. This is done so that it doesn’t get humilliated by the competitors.  The readiness not just visible from the interior section which is now looks sportier with Kevlar coverage around the cabin.

Start from the dashboard on the instrument panel cover,  head unit and AC indicator cover frame, bosh kit steer cover and transmission paddle shift, all of them are neatly covered by using Kevlar material. Similar work also visible by changing the arm rest and speaker set cover on the door panel with Kevlar material.

Meanwhile for the exterior, ride that once record 322 horsepower on wheels also using rims with the latest technology.

20 Inch HRE CF43 rims are officially appointed to fill the fender. The most sophosticated technology rims with the usage of Kevlar Carbon material on the lips become contrast with the interior look. The pair is 245/30 ZR20 Michelin

tires for the front side. While for the rear side relies on 305/25 ZR20 Continental Giovanna Sport Contact2
