Ferrari is ready to introduce the Portofino to the Indian auto market on the 28th of September, 2018.

The new vehicle is stiffer, stronger, lighter and more fashionable than the California. Ferrari has also redesigned the platform to reduce the weight of the Portofino by 80kg while the new vehicle is 35% more rigid.

Inspired by a fishing village in Italy to get the name “Portofino”, the new car has an outstanding design along with a robust appearance. A big radiator grille with brand-new LED headlights is located on the front. An air intake is hidden by the L-shaped headlights; thanks to the rear ridges, the downforce at the back is increased.

  • A driver seat which is electrically adjustable in 18 ways

  • A 10.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system

  • A backup 8.8-inch touchscreen

Similar to the California, the Ferrari Portofino will be powered by a 3.9-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, but it has been modified to produce more power. This engine can churn out 600 hp and 760 Nm of torque (40 hp and 5 Nm more than the California). It can also accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in just 3.5 seconds and the maximum speed is 320 kmph.
