Ferrari GTC4 Lusso Revealed; To Debut at the Geneva Motor Show
Highlights
The GTC4 Lusso is essentially a facelifted FF but sees a number of cosmetic tweaks and is in line with the company's evolutionary design. You can see that the front bumper has been restyled with built-in air intakes. There are air intakes at the rear with a roof-mounted spoiler, and double circular taillights. We also get to see a rear diffuser and Ferrari mentions that all this is to boost the aerodynamic efficiency of the car.
There are changes to the inside of the car as well as the GTC4 Lusso hosts Ferrari's latest infotainment system. It comes with a 10.25-inch display and there is also a smaller steering wheel, which has been a possibility all thanks to a compact airbag. Then there are the new buttons and a redesigned Manettino dial which make things a bit more futuristic.
But of course you want to know what's under the hood and it's a naturally-aspirated 6.2-litre V12 engine which packs in more power and torque than its predecessor. There's 680bhp on offer instead of 651 and the torque figure now stands at 697 Nm. Quite obviously the bump in power sees a fast paced car and the 0 to 100km/h timing too has been slashed by 0.3 seconds. The GTC4 Lusso can do this sprint in 3.4 seconds and tops out at 335 km/h.
Besides all this, the GTC4Lusso also comes with a rear-wheel steering featuring, Slip Side Control setup which works with the electronic differential and dampers. The folks at Ferrari say that this helps in bettering the handling of the car especially on snow-covered, wet or low-grip roads. The car will be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March this year and will obviously be more expensive than the outgoing FF.
