The all-new Ferrari 458 Italia has officially been unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
It features a 4.5-litre V8 with direct injection technology. It develops a mighty 425 kW at 9000 rpm (!!). Maximum torque is 540 Nm at 6000 rpm with over 80 percent of which is available from 3250 rpm – perfect for driveability.
The F430 replacement has the same 7-speed gearbox that’s mounted on the California, but with slightly tweaked gear-ratios, in order to deliver the full power of the bestial V8.
Check out the videos of the unveiling and of none other than Michael Schumacher himself talking about the 458 after the break!
