Maranello Unveils Ferrari 458 Italia

The Ferrari 458 Italia is the latest creation coming from the small Italian town Maranello. You may have not heard of Maranello before, but that's the town where the Ferrari's are made. Ferrari 458 Italia will be presented at the next Frankfurt Motor Show in September of this year.

The new 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia is a synthesis in style, creative in talent, has passion and the most advanced technology features for which Italy, as a nation, is well known. For this reason, Ferrari chose to add the name of their homeland to the traditional car representing the number of cylinders. The Ferrari 458 Italia is a completely new car from all points of view: the engine design, aerodynamics, instrumentation and ergonomics, to name a few.

A two-seater, the Ferrari 458 Italia, as is traditional for all Ferrari road cars, it benefits greatly from the experience of the company in Formula 1. This is particularly evident in the speed and accuracy with which the car responds to the actions of the driver and the focus on reducing the internal friction of the engine with less fuel consumption than the F430. This is despite that speed as the power is increased.

The ininfarina's design of Ferrari 458 Italia has provided further evidence of the change that this new car represents. Ferrari 458 Italia has the concepts of simplicity, efficiency and lightness that inspired the project.

Ferrari's direct injection V-8 delivers 570 hp at 9000 rpm, and an excellent power of 127 hp / liter. It sets a new benchmark not only for the full range of Ferrari and the company's history, but also for the entire market segment.

While the Ferrari California was created for owners who require a more versatile sports car with a practical advantage, the Italia 458 is designed for owners whose priority is the road, with one day of use on the track. However, Ferrari 458 still meets the demand for a car that is usable in everyday driving, as all the latest models of Ferrari.

We have not seen the interior of the car. However, Automobile Magazine writes that it will bring all the details of the Ferrari 458 Italia interior from the Frankfurt Motor Show this September.
