CALIFORNIA T – FERRARI’S NEW GRAND TOUR<br />

W<br />

ith an all-new<br />

turbocharged V8, Ferrari’s<br />

latest California model<br />

is proving to the world<br />

it may have stunningly<br />

feminine curves, but its one supercar<br />

that’s certainly not just for girls.<br />

Appreciated for its versatility, looks,<br />

as well as its stunning handling and<br />

performance, this California, with its<br />

folding hardtop, 2+2 seating and up to<br />

320 litres of luggage space, is one of the<br />

most practical of all Ferraris, appealing<br />

to a wider audience than ever before. It<br />

also sounds incredible – start it up and<br />

hear it roar.<br />

It’s a car brimming with innovation that<br />

will more than meet the expectations of<br />

discerning clients for whom fun behind<br />

the wheel is a priority, but who also<br />

demand a sumptuously comfortable<br />

Grand Tourer they can use every day.<br />

Epitomising the matchless elegance,<br />

sportiness, versatility and exclusivity that<br />

have distinguished every California model<br />

since the 1950s, this stunning model is a<br />

wonderful expression of Ferrari’s sporty<br />

DNA.<br />

Maranello’s engineers have managed<br />

to design a remarkable power unit that<br />

combines classic Ferrari engine qualities,<br />

such as razor-sharp responsiveness,<br />

blistering performance, superbly<br />

powerful acceleration at all speeds and<br />

an exhilarating soundtrack, with the<br />

advantages turbo technology, such as<br />

drastically reduced emissions and fuel<br />

consumption, a high specific power<br />

output and compact dimensions. A<br />

genuinely unprecedented achievement<br />

that sets a new benchmark for the<br />

industry.<br />

With a 0-60 sprint time of just 3.6<br />

secs, almost 50% more torque in 7th<br />

gear, a 15% greater range and 20%<br />

reduction in the CO2/horsepower<br />

ratio compared to its predecessor, this<br />

‘T’ model is an enormously attractive<br />

proposition.Slip inside, and you’ll see<br />

the California T’s cabin exudes a sense<br />

of warmth and craftsmanship, and<br />

was designed to be as ergonomic as<br />

possible, with luxurious semi-aniline<br />

leather trim. The space on-board is<br />

flexible too, and owners can make<br />

the most efficient use of its generous<br />

boot capacity even with the top down,<br />

thanks to the communication between<br />

the luggage compartment and rear<br />

seats.<br />
