Ferrari 458 Pininfarina design in Italy is a further demonstration of the power of the past that the new car will come. Ferrari 458 Italia has a compact design and aerodynamics, the concept of simplicity, efficiency and ease the pressure, inspired the project. Like the Ferrari, the car demands a strong force in aerodynamic efficiency, as shown the influence of the pressing force is generated in a 140 kg at 200 KMH by the new model. The front has a single opening in the grille and side vents with aero profile and designed for direct radiators for cooling the air and new rocker panels. The nose also sports small aero elastic wing, support and, if the deformation rate increases to generate in order to reduce the input range of cooling and reduce drag.
The new 4499 cc V8 engine mounted for the first injection directly into the back of the Ferrari in the middle. The climax is very low compression pistons typical racing engine, to achieve its compression ratio of 12.5:1 contributions. Equipped with a traditional flat-plane crankshaft engine provides 570 horsepower at 9000 revolutions per minute and with a remarkable output of 127 hp / liter, setting a new standard not only for the entire range of Ferrari and the company’s history, but also to segment the market. Maximum torque of 540 Nm at 6000 revolutions per minute, more than 80 percent of what is from 3250 rpm. Torque of 120 Nm is the specific recording / liter. But what’s really remarkable is the amount of torque available, while maintaining high pressure on the bass.
Automatic soundtrack is also typical Ferrari, with an exciting and powerful sound of the engine, before the channel through the exhaust pipe at the rear of three of the exhaust gases.
Ferrari 458 Italia is equipped with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox that increases performance and gives a very subtle change, even at full capacity. The engineers have a special relationship, sports equipment, to develop appropriate power and torque curves of the new V8 engine, achieving a high torque at low revs, so the car up to top speed in top gear.
This new Ferrari is a major step forward in terms of reducing emissions. Although the new engine is more powerful than the V8, which came before, the Ferrari 458 Italia produces just 320 g / km of CO2 and fuel consumption of 13.7 l/100 km (combined) the best thing in the entire segment.
The engineers are also weight loss during the planning phase focuses on similar grounds. Consequently, the Ferrari 458 Italy has 1380 kg dry weight with the power to weight ratio of 2.42 kg / hp. Weight distribution is also optimal with 58 percent of the rear axle. 0-100 km / h in less than 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 325 km / h: results from the efforts of the engineers came up in two simple statistics that are grouped together enclose a remarkable complete performance of the Ferrari 458 Italia
Once again for the new chassis, aluminum, Maranello’s engineers developed various types of alloys contained with the source of air and space industry and assembly techniques.
In terms of driving dynamics, the suspension of the front of the Ferrari 458 Italian doubles wishbone and multilink set-up in the rear for maximum grip and superlative handling. With more direct steering ratio, Ferrari 458 Italian control body thus offers extremely fast and lightweight while maintaining outstanding ride comfort.
Integration of E-Diff and F1-Trac (now controlled by the ECU itself) and the mapping of each even greater, resulting in increased 32 percent in longitudinal acceleration at the corner of his predecessor. Development of control logic provides the calculation of the handle faster and more precise, the handling even more, better handling and easy control of the border.
The same ECU also controls the high-performance ABS, but offers more precise control of threshold logic and efficiency. Brakes also have a function that moves prefill piston calipers brake pads contact with the disk to minimize delay in the brake is pressed. This, combined with ABS braking distance is shortened 100-0 KMH is only 32.5 meters.
The inside of Italy, other areas of the Ferrari 458, increase athletic personality. Motorists with a revolutionary interface design and ergonomics in the main controls are grouped on the steering wheel welcomed.
With the Ferrari 458 Italy, Maranello has brought a new car the same features as its 8-cylinder range. The company now offers two models that share the same origin, race, DNA, both share a very sporty and fun to drive in true Ferrari tradition, but is intended for two very different types of customers. While the Ferrari California was created to require the owner of a versatile sports car with the practical advantages, the Ferrari 458 Italy for the owner, the priority is a compromise that can be seen on the streets these days are designed to time, but even for cars in daily life, and all latest models of Ferrari is used as follows.
