The replacement for the 488 Spider, the Ferrari F8 Spider is able to unleash its power instantaneously with zero turbo lag, whilst retaining the V8’s unique and very special soundtrack. Inspired by the F8 Tributo berlinetta, the added retractable hard top of the F8 Spider is the new benchmark in “open air” super-sports models, with extremely high performance, great handling and an exhilarating driving experience.
The Ferrari F8 Spider is powered by the serial award-winning 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8 engine that took “International Engine of the Year” for four consecutive years from 2016 to 2019. The eight-cylinder power unit, an evolution of the 488’s engine, has been widely recognised as the best engine of the last 20 years, taking the F8 Spider to 62 mph in just 2.9 seconds, and onwards to a top speed of 211 mph.
State-of-the-art aerodynamics solutions and significant innovations from Ferrari’s GT and Challenge racing experience have been implanted into the F8 Spider ensuring the highest levels of performance are accessible to its driver. Unlike the 488 Spider, the F8 Spider’s front radiators are rearward angled, providing significant cooling gains. Alongside the redesign of channels used to dissipate hot air to maximise downforce, the F8 Spider has achieved an impressive 10% improvement in overall efficiency.
One of the F8 Spider’s most distinctive characteristics is its engine cover. Its central spine, starting from the rear of the screen and disappearing under the wing of the blown spoiler, creates a manta-like look. The two wings emerging from the central volume, meld fluidly with the bodywork, creating visual continuity from all angles. The car’s cockpit has retained Ferrari’s classic, driver-oriented look that is typical of their mid-rear-engine Berlinettas.
