First-ever customer Ferrari F80 in Europe has officially been delivered in the UK
Finished in Rosso Taormina, a deep-earthy shade of red inspired by the volcanic slopes of Mount Etna, giving the F80 a darker, more understated presence than Ferrari’s traditional reds
By the way. In case you were wondering. The Ferrari F80 is a limited-production, all-wheel-drive hybrid hypercar, the successor to the LaFerrari, launched to celebrate Ferrari’s 80th anniversary and showcasing extreme performance with a 1,200 hp V6-hybrid powertrain, advanced aerodynamics, and technology inspired by Formula 1 and endurance racing.
It features an electric front axle for torque vectoring, active aerodynamics, and can achieve 0-62 mph in 2.15 seconds, becoming Ferrari’s most powerful road car.
The F80 is a limited-run model (799 units, all pre-sold at around USD3.9 million each) that incorporates advanced technology and design elements derived directly from Ferrari’s Formula 1 and Le Mans-winning 499P race car programs.
The F80 is powered by a hybrid system combining a 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 engine with three electric motors (two on the front axle, one at the rear) to produce a combined output of 1,184 horsepower (which is about 1,200 PS).
The V6 engine alone produces 888 hp, the highest specific power output of any production car engine to date.
The F80 delivers awesome performance as it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 2.15 seconds and has a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph).
The F80 aerodynemics also the car to generate over a ton of downforce (1,050 kg at 250 km/h or 155 mph) through radical active aerodynamic systems, including a massive 1.8-meter long rear diffuser, an S-duct in the front bonnet, and an active rear wing.
The F80 features a carbon fiber monocoque chassis for high stiffness and low weight. It is equipped with a sophisticated 48-volt active suspension system, which uses electric motors at each corner to control ride height and body roll without the need for anti-roll bars.
The F80 cabin has a driver-centric “1+” layout, inspired by single-seater race cars, with the passenger seat positioned slightly further back to allow for a narrower, more aerodynamically efficient cockpit.
The “Ferrari F80” name was famously used for a popular, futuristic concept car rendering created by independent designer Adriano Raeli in 2014. However, the actual, production Ferrari F80 is the new physical model unveiled in late 2024.
