Ferrari 488 Spider

Ferrari has officially taken the wraps off its newest Convertible mid-engined V8 supercar, the 488 Spider. The new Ferrari 488 Spider gets a hard top Convertible which folds down neatly into a compartment between the driver’s compartment and the engine bay. The 488 is also equipped with a twin turbo V8 engine that makes a staggering 670PS of peak power.

The Ferrari 488 Spider is the most powerful retractable hard top roadster ever built and has a mix of conventional materials like Aluminum and more exotic materials like magnesium and carbon fibre making it almost 25 percent stiffer than the 458 Spider before it.

Power comes from a 3.9-litre V8 twin turbo engine that is also used in the 488GTB. Making 670PS at a staggering 8000rpm and 760Nm of torque at 3000rpm. This gives the 488 Spider a 0-100kmph time of only three seconds and a top speed of over 320kmph. In fact, the Ferrari 488 Spider can do a sprint of 0-200kmph in just 8.7 seconds making it a serious fast car. The Ferrari 488 Spider is not only faster than the 458 but also much greener as it makes less CO2 emissions than ever before.
