2019 FERRARI 488 PISTA

摘要

TWELVE-CYLINDER ENGINES, especially ones from Maranello, will always make our hair stand on end, but there's something just so right about Ferrari's mid-engine V-8 models. So right, in fact, that we get excited whenever the manufacturer introduces a new one even if it's not an entirely new car. This brings us to the 488 Pista ("Track" in Italian). The latest in a line of amped-up variants including predecessors such as the 360 Challenge Stradale, 430 Scuderia, and 458 Speciale, the Pista could've been named Pizza and we wouldn't care. Its 3.9-liter twin-turbo V-8 mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox features more than 50 percent new parts, including titanium connecting rods and Inconel exhaust manifolds. The Pista is roughly 199 pounds lighter than the 488 GTB; 40 pounds of that comes from powertrain materials improvements.
