Ferrari Portofino debuts in South Africa
The car unleashes 600cv at 7500rpm, sprinting from 0-100 km/h in 3.5 seconds and 0-200km/h in 10.8 seconds.
Named after one of Italy's most charming villages on the Italian Riviera, Portofino, the manufacturer says the new model can convert from a 'berlinetta' coupé to a drop-top in 14 seconds.
The vehicle dynamics have been completely revised and new technological solutions have been introduced for the first time on this type of Ferrari model. The third generation electronic rear differential (E-Diff3) has been adopted and integrated with the F1-Trac, improving both mechanical grip and the control of the car on the limit.
It is also the first GT in the range to be fitted with electric power steering (EPS). This allowed the engineers to reduce the steering ratio by seven percent for even more responsive steering without a trade-off instability thanks to the integration with the E-Diff3.
