All- new chassis

The Por tofino utilizes an allnew chassis which is lighter and stronger than the California T it replaces. It utilizes Ferrari ’s new E- Diff 3 rear elec tronic differential that aids in trac tion, and is the first GT c ar to utilize elec tric power steering, which the company claims c an reduce its steering ratio by 7 percent. A dual coil suspension front and back uses magnetorheological dampers for a more comfortable ride.

Aggressiveness and function were prevalent for the design of the car, while maintaining the proportions of a GT car in which exudes elegance worthy of the name. The angry looking front fascia lets everyone know that there is a monster lurking under the bonnet, characterized with the large grinning front grille and bumper intakes. The outside edge of the headlight has a hidden air intake which exits along th flank of the front wheel arch to reduce drag, making the car more slippery. Proportions for the rear are cleverly redesigned to maintain the handsome looking tail end while cleverly housing the retractable hardtop.

The interior is completely new, with a 10.2- inch touchscreen infotainment display, a new air- conditioning system, steering wheel, 18- way adjustable seats with a new design that improves rear legroom, and a wind deflector which reduces wind noise with the top down.

The car will make its debut in the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show in late September.
