Ferrari's new Grand Tourer, the California T, will showcase its new turbocharged V8 engine that combines classic Ferrari engine qualities of razor-sharp response, blistering performance, powerful acceleration at all speeds and its exhilarating soundtrack, with the advantages of turbo technology such as significantly reduced emissions and fuel consumption. Ferrari claim this achievement sets a new benchmark for the industry.
The 458 Speciale's performance is 'exceptional across the board', with acceleration from 0-100km/h in 3 seconds.
