Ferrari introduced new supercar

Presentation of the car, which next year will take part in the championship Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli, took place on Wednesday in Maranello during the Annual Meeting of the dealers brand.

Novelty was underestimated by 30 millimeters of suspension with stiffer springs and other shocks, Brembo brakes with carbon-ceramic discs, an upgraded seven-speed transmission with modified gear ratios, as well as thinner body panels, which lowered the mass of the car. Also in the race supercar widely used carbon fiber parts, and instead of conventional glass set their polycarbonate counterparts.

Supercar Ferrari 458 Challenge is equipped with the same engine as the standard car - 570-horsepower 4.5-liter eight-engine with direct fuel injection. According to the Italian manufacturer, racing "Italy" passes the circle test track at Fiorano in 1 minute 16.5 seconds, almost two seconds faster than the predecessor to this model - F430 Challenge.
