Ferrari 488 GTB launched in India for Rs 3.88 crore

Italian supercar maker, Ferrari made its re-entry on Indian shores in November last year. While Ferrari California T was the first car the company chose to launch in the country, now they have gone ahead and launched the latest Ferrari 488GTB for a price of Rs 3.88 crore (ex showroom, New Delhi).

The 488 in the car's moniker indicates the engine's unitary displacement, while the GTB stands for Gran Turismo 

Berlinetta, a reference to its deep roots in Ferrari history.  

Design:

The front is characterised by the dual grille opening which channels air into the two radiators. There is also a double front spoiler which, on close inspection, looks very like those of the F1 single-seaters. At the centre two pylons are combined with a deflector which channels air towards the flat under body.

The bonnet has pronounced, raised central section and two side channels. These channels have the dual function of making the car look more sporty and channelling the air from the two vents in the bumper which have been skilfully hidden from sight in the front view to keep the lines clean.

Engine:

The new Ferrari 488GTB will come powered with a 3.9L, V8, turbo-charged, petrol engine churning out maximum power output of 660bhp and maximum torque of 760Nm, mated to seven-speed F1 dual clutch transmission.

Performance:

The new Ferrari 488GTB  can go from 0-100 km/h in just 3 seconds and 0-200km/h under a cool 8.3 seconds.

Dimensions:

The new Ferrari 488GTB comes with a wheelbase of 2650mm and is 4568mm in length, 1952mm in width and 1213mm in height with a fuel capacity of 78 litres.
