As promised, Ferrari has just released the first details about its world debut for the Geneva Motor Show. And its name is the F8 Tributo. It’s a really important one, too, as it replaces the 488 GTB. The latest in a long line of two-seater berlinettas pays homage both to the engine that powers it as well as the recipe that has been so successful over the years. While the F8 Tributo is the 488 GTB‘s successor, it carries on with the 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. However, the powertrain sees significant improvements. It now produces 720 PS (710 hp) at 8,000 rpm and 770 Nm (568 lb-ft) of torque from 3,250 rpm, an increase of 50 PS and 10 Nm (7 lb-ft) compared to its predecessor.

In fact, the exterior design of the supercar is so radical that it looks more like a concept car than a road-going model. Up front, the SP38 includes a set of small, horizontal headlights that complement an aggressive front fascia with painted and carbon fiber components. Elsewhere, the vehicle’s sides include dramatic skirts, a sharp roofline, and small side windows. Star-shaped wheels finished in silver top things off. As radical as the front and sides are, it is the rear where the real action is happening. Most notably, a traditional rear window/engine cover has been replaced by a set of body-colored louvers. Additionally, the taillights have been hidden away in the bla...

The Italian automaker has unveiled their celebratory anniversary logo at the  2016 Paris Auto Show , meant to represent 70 years of history while also pointing to the brand's future. Naturally, the logo will only be used on a small number of cars. The first to get it will be the  LaFerrari Aperta hypercar , Ferrari's latest limited-edition special series, which also represents a unique model in terms of technology and styling. Another huge announcement is the 70 different individual liveries created by the Tailor Made atelier, which are to be used to create a maximum of 350 unique cars - where each can be used once on one example of five models from the current Ferrari range.
