23 Sep 2016|1,294 views
The upcoming Paris Motor Show provides the venue for the unveiling of the GTC4Lusso T, the first four-seater in Prancing Horse history to sport a turbocharged V8 engine, hailing a whole new Ferrari GT concept aimed at owners seeking a car that is sporty and versatile, as well as perfect for driving on a daily basis.
The new GT effortlessly marries elegance, superb occupant comfort, and sportiness with the thrilling driving dynamics delivered by a combination of rear-wheel drive, four-wheel steering (4WS), lighter overall weight, and increased weight bias towards the rear.
The car's 3.9-litre V8 turbo is the latest evolution to emerge from the engine family that was nominated the 2016 International Engine of the Year. Its maximum power output is 601bhp at 7,500rpm while maximum torque of 760Nm is available between 3,000 and 5,250rpm.
The V8 turbo's characteristics suit day-to-day driving in urban contexts. It provides a rich powerful soundtrack during acceleration, which gets more muted at lower speeds. It also boasts rapid pickup from low revs, courtesy of versatile, modular torque delivery; as well as excellent range.
The GTC4Lusso T's dynamic control systems have been specifically calibrated to boost responsiveness to commands. In particular, the 4WS, which is integrated with Side Slip Control (SSC3), makes for more rapid response to steering wheel inputs entering and exiting corners; thanks to the rear wheels steering in the same direction as the ones in front.
The feeling of longitudinal performance in this new model has been enhanced at low speeds by Variable Boost Management and underscored by throttle response with zero turbo lag. Thanks to variable torque curves (VBM) between third and seventh gear, longitudinal acceleration is consistent through the ratios; increasing smoothly with engine speed, resulting in a feeling of vivid but superbly progressive acceleration.
The GTC4Lusso T's styling retains the same innovative take on the shooting brake coupe, reinterpreting the concept with an extremely streamlined, tapered shape that gives it an almost fastback-like silhouette. The cabin is an effortless melding of distinctive Ferrari styling and the luxurious elegance expected of a four-seater GT. The GTC4Lusso T features the unique Dual Cockpit architecture, designed to enhance the shared driving experience for both driver and passenger. It also incorporates the latest iteration of the infotainment system complete with an impressive 10.25-inch HD capacitive touchscreen.
