Ferrari 488#Spider

The 488 GTB is powered by a {{cvt|3902|cc|L CID|abbr=on|1}} (488 cc per cylinder, thus the name) all-aluminium dry sump unit of the Ferrari F154 V8 engine family.{{cite web |title=The Ferrari 488GTB: record-breaking, beyond-the-limits performance |url=http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/specifications/ |website=488gtb.ferrari.com |access-date=5 March 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150308042645/http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/specifications |archive-date=8 March 2015 }} Turbocharged with two parallel ball-bearing twin-scroll turbochargers supplied by IHI/Honeywell and two air-to-air intercoolers, the turbine wheels are made of low-density TiAl alloy often used in jet engines to reduce inertia and resist high temperatures within the turbocharger. The engine generates a power output of {{convert|670|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} at 8,000 rpm and {{convert|760|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} of torque at 3,000 rpm.{{cite web |title=The Ferrari 488GTB: the new 670 cv 3902 cm3 V8 turbo |url=http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/powertrain/ |website=488gtb.ferrari.com |access-date=5 March 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150306183839/http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/powertrain |archive-date=6 March 2015 }} This results in a specific power output of {{convert|126.3|kW|PS hp|1|abbr=on}} per litre and specific torque output of {{convert|194.8|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} per litre, both records for a Ferrari automobile.

The only available transmission for the 488 is a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox manufactured for Ferrari by Getrag, based on the gearbox used in the 458.{{cite web |title=The Ferrari 488GTB: track-style responsiveness from a road car |url=http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/vehicle-dynamics/ |website=488gtb.ferrari.com |access-date=5 March 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150306183844/http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/vehicle-dynamics |archive-date=6 March 2015 }}

Improved carbon-ceramic brakes are used on the 488, derived from technology used in the LaFerrari, constructed with new materials that reduce the time needed to achieve optimum operating temperature. Disc sizes are 398 mm at the front, and 360 mm at the rear. These advancements reportedly reduce stopping distances by 9% over the 458.

A new five-spoke alloy wheel was designed for the 488, measuring {{convert|20|in|cm|abbr=on|order=flip}} at front and rear respectively. Front tyres measure 245/35 and the rear tyres 305/30.

Claimed manufacturer performance for the 488 GTB is {{convert|0|-|100|km/h|mph|0|abbr=on}} in 3.0 seconds, {{convert|0|-|200|km/h|mph|0|abbr=on}} in 8.3 seconds, covering the quarter mile in 10.45 seconds and a top speed is {{convert|330|km/h|mph|0|abbr=on}}.

The body of the 488 has been designed to increase downforce by 50% over the 458 while reducing aerodynamic drag.{{cite web |title=Ferrari 488GTB 2015 |url=http://www.dieselstation.com/cars/ferrari-488-gtb-2015-a6678.html |website=www.dieselstation.com |access-date=5 March 2015}} A new front double splitter serves two functions: increasing radiator cooling by forcing air into them and also channeling the air over the underbody vortex generators to create ground effect without adding unwanted drag. A newly designed rear spoiler (actually a slotted flap) integrated into the rear decklid and bumper increases downforce without requiring a raised wing.{{cite web |title=The Ferrari 488GTB: record-breaking aerodynamics |url=http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/aerodynamics/ |website=488gtb.ferrari.com |access-date=5 March 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150306192451/http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/aerodynamics |archive-date=6 March 2015 }} The central "Aero Pillar" deflects air under the flat body of the car while two vents in the bonnet provide an exit for air from the dual intakes of the front bumper, further reducing air pressure over the front of the car.{{cite web |title=The Ferrari 488 GTB: sporty, performance-focused design |url=http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/style/ |website=488gtb.ferrari.com |access-date=5 March 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150306192456/http://488gtb.ferrari.com/en/style |archive-date=6 March 2015 }}

Underbody vortex generators work to reduce air pressure beneath the car thereby increasing overall downforce. A larger rear diffuser works to increase the velocity of air exiting the underbody to further lower air pressure, in conjunction with active aerodynamic variable flaps that both reduce drag and increase downforce as controlled by a microprocessor. The increased size of the diffuser over the previous 458 requires the twin exhausts of the 488 to be positioned higher in the rear bumper for clearance.

The scalloped side air intakes are a homage to those found on the 308 GTB, and are divided by a central partition. Air entering the top intake is partially directed into the turbocharger compressor intake, while the rest is directed through the rear of the car and exits alongside the rear lights, increasing air pressure behind the car in order to reduce aerodynamic drag. Airflow entering the lower intake is directed towards the intercoolers in order to cool the intake charge. Even the door handles—dubbed "shark fins"—are shaped in a way which improves airflow by cleaning and funneling air into the large intakes above the rear wheels.{{Cite book|title=Top Gear|year=2015|pages=109}}

The Ferrari 488 was designed by Flavio Manzoni and won the Red Dot "Best of the Best" awards for Product Design in 2016.{{cite web |title=Design award honours Kia and Ferrari with Red Dot: Best of the Best |url=http://en.red-dot.org/kia_und_ferrari_erhalten_red_dot.html |website=red-dot.org |access-date=27 May 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160721233600/http://en.red-dot.org/kia_und_ferrari_erhalten_red_dot.html |archive-date=21 July 2016 |url-status=dead }}

On 6 March 2018, Ferrari unveiled the 488 Pista (track in Italian) at the Geneva Motor Show. The Pista's design was influenced by the 488 GTE and 488 Challenge race variants. The car has received many mechanical and exterior modifications to make it more capable than the 488 GTB.

The 3.9-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine now generates a power output of {{convert|720|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} at 8,000 rpm and {{convert|770|Nm|lbft|0|abbr=on}} of torque at 3,000 rpm due to the use of new camshafts, a larger intercooler, strengthened pistons, titanium connecting rods and Inconel exhaust manifolds in the engine borrowed from the 488 Challenge. Revisions to the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission also allow for shifts in 30 milliseconds when drivers enter race mode.

The most noticeable exterior changes for the Pista are at the front end. Air passes through the ducts in the front bumper and which direct it through a large vent in the hood, which creates more downforce over the nose at high-speeds. Helping boost performance further, the air intake tunnels have been moved from the flanks to the rear spoiler to optimize clean airflow. Other exterior changes include underbody diffusers and the rear diffuser shared with the 488 GTE. In total, the car generates 20% more downforce than the 488 GTB. The car also incorporates a Side-slip Angle Control system having an E-Diff3, F-Trac and magnetorheological suspension to improve handling at high speeds.

On the interior, carbon fibre and Alcantara are used throughout in order to reduce weight. Overall, the car is {{cvt|200|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}} lighter than the 488 GTB due to the use of carbon fibre on the hood, bumpers, and rear spoiler. Optional 20-inch carbon fibre wheels available for the Pista, made by Australian manufacturer Carbon Revolution, reduce wheel weight by 40%.{{Cite web |title=Ferrari 488 Pista to roll on Aussie-made wheels |url=https://www.whichcar.com.au/news/ferrari-488-pista-to-roll-on-aussie-made-wheels |access-date=2022-08-10 |website=WhichCar |date=8 March 2018 |language=en}}

These modifications enable the 488 Pista to accelerate from {{cvt|0-100|kph|mph|0|abbr=on}} in 2.85 seconds, {{cvt|0-124|mph|km/h|0|abbr=on|order=flip}} in 7.6 seconds and give the car a maximum speed of {{cvt|211|mph|km/h|0|abbr=on|order=flip}}, according to the manufacturer.{{cite web |first=Chris |last=Bruce |title=Ferrari 488 Pista Looks Track Ready At The Geneva Motor Show |url=https://www.motor1.com/news/235258/ferrari-488-pista-geneva-premiere/ |website=motor1.com |date=6 March 2018 |access-date=6 March 2018}}{{cite web |first=Adam |last=Lynton |title=Ferrari 488 Pista Is The Latest 700-Horsepower Prancing Pony|url=https://carbuzz.com/news/ferrari-488-pista-is-the-latest-700-horsepower-prancing-pony|website=carbuzz.com |date=6 March 2018 |access-date=7 March 2018}}

The convertible variant of the 488 Pista was unveiled at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. The Spider retains the same engine generating the same power output as the coupé and hence resulting in the same performance as the coupé counterpart according to the manufacturer but now boasts a reduced weight of {{cvt|1380|kg|lb|0|abbr=on}}, making it the first production Ferrari road-going convertible car to be lighter than its coupé counterpart.

The interior is trimmed in carbon-fibre, upholstered in Alcantara and leather and contains straps to shut the doors instead of actual door handles indicating the car's track-focused nature.

Exterior highlights include new 20-inch diamond finish alloy wheels which are 20% lighter than forged alloy wheels along with 20-inch carbon fibre wheels available as an option.

The Pista Spider also marks the debut of the Ferrari Dynamic Enhancer, a new lateral dynamics control which makes "on-the-limit driving more intuitive, controllable and predictable".{{cite web|url=https://www.topgear.com/car-news/pebble-beach-2018/new-ferrari-488-pista-spider-here|title=The new Ferrari 488 Pista Spider is here|date=26 August 2018|first=Vijay|last=Pattni|publisher=Top Gear|access-date=26 August 2018}}

In 2017 Ferrari won the drivers and constructors titles in the LM GTE Pro class of the FIA World Endurance Championship with the Ferrari 488 GTE number 51 of AF Corse, with Alessandro Pier Guidi and James Calado behind the wheel. As a tribute, a special edition of the 488 Pista was created called the 488 Pista Piloti which incorporates numerous technical and aerodynamic solutions incorporated from the racing versions of the Ferrari 488. The special edition has been developed by the Ferrari Tailor-Made department, the division which is entrusted with all the customisations ordered by the customers, starting from the internal fabrics up to the colours and finishes. The exterior has a new livery with stripes in the colours of the Italian flag, reminiscent of the race-winning 488 GTE and the word "PRO" indicating the racing class. The Italian flag colours are also present along the bottom of the doors which are also adorned with the personal race number of the client's preference. The launch version carries the number 51 used by the world championship drivers. Also part of this personalisation project is the matte black S-Duct and the natural carbon fibre "dovetail" suspended rear wing and vent surrounds. On the interior, Alcantara has been used throughout in order to give the driver the feel of a race car, with a special technique applied to upholster the sports seats in the same perforated material. The tricolour Italian flag is present in the seat upholstery, floor mats and paddle shifters.

The colours available for the bodywork include Corsa red, Tour De France blue, Daytona black and Nurburgring silver. The 488 Pista Piloti is exclusively available for Ferrari drivers.{{cite web|url=http://www.thedrive.com/news/21568/special-edition-piloti-ferrari-488-pista-reserved-for-racing-drivers-only|title=Special Edition 'Piloti Ferrari' 488 Pista Reserved for Racing Drivers Only|date=16 June 2018|publisher=The Drive|author=George Kuruvilla|access-date=17 June 2018}}

The Ferrari SP38 Deborah is a one-off special built on the special request of a customer. The car is based on the Ferrari 488 and features the same mechanical components. The newly designed body is inspired by the F40 and the 308. The design work was done by the Ferrari Styling Centre under Flavio Manzoni with input from the customer and the car took 18 months to complete. The car features a narrow set of headlamps with the day time running lights integrated into the newly designed front bumper. The large standard air-intakes of the 488 have been replaced by two small air intakes located near to the rear side windows and look integrated into the body. At the rear, an integrated fixed rear wing and a new carbon fibre engine cover with three slats is present in place of the 488's glass unit for improved engine cooling, resembling that on the F40 along with a new set of tail light assembly and a modified exhaust system. The paint named Deborah red (reflecting the owner's first name) is also customised and consists of different shades of red. The new wheels are exclusive for the car as well. The power output figures of the car are expected to be the same as the 488 but the performance figures are not revealed along with the cost of development. The car was delivered to the owner at the Ferrari test track located at Maranello, Italy.{{cite web|url=https://carbuzz.com/news/say-hello-to-the-one-off-ferrari-sp38|title=Say Hello To The One-Off Ferrari SP38|work=carbuzz|first=Jay|last=Traugott|date=23 May 2018|access-date=23 May 2018}} The public unveiling of the car took place at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on 26 May 2018.{{cite news|title=New Ferrari SP38 one-off supercar revealed|url=http://www.evo.co.uk/news/21289/new-ferrari-sp38-one-off-supercar-revealed|access-date=28 May 2018|publisher=evo.co.uk}}{{cite news|title=Ferrari SP38 Deborah Makes Its Debut In Villa d'Este|url=https://www.carscoops.com/2018/05/ferrari-sp38-deborah-makes-debut-villa-deste-w-video/|access-date=28 May 2018|publisher=carscoops.com}}

The Ferrari P80/C is a one-off track-only car developed upon a special request of a customer. The car is based on the 488 GT3. It was quoted as having "the longest development time of any Ferrari one-off made to date" having been commissioned in 2015. Externally, the P80/C lacks headlights and taillights and features sports prototype-inspired bodywork akin to that of the 330 P3, 330 P4 and the Dino 206 S. The car retains the same mechanical components as a 488 GT3 but handling has been improved over the donor car due to the use of specially developed aerodynamic elements such as a large removable rear wing, a large rear diffuser (shared with the donor car) and front splitter. The rear of the car is left mostly exposed to emphasise its racing prototype character. The side air intakes have also been modified and are integrated near the side windows which improves airflow to the engine. The car uses a wrap-around windshield for improved visibility. The body is made of carbon fibre in order to keep the weight low. The car is claimed to be 5% more efficient overall than the car on which it is based.{{Cite web|url=https://www.topgear.com/car-news/supercars/ferrari-reveals-p80c-one-488-gt3|title=Ferrari reveals the P80/C: a one-off 488 GT3|date=2019-03-25|first=Jason|last=Barlow|publisher=Top Gear|access-date=2019-03-25}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a26930491/ferrari-p80c-photos-info/|title=The Ferrari P80/C Is a Two-in-One Track Car and Garage Beauty, and There's Only One|date=2019-03-25|first=Clifford|last=Atiyeh|publisher=Car & Driver|access-date=2019-03-25}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/future-cars/a26929748/ferrari-p80c-specs-info-gallery/|title=The Ferrari P80/C Is a Track-Only Homage to 1960s Prototypes|date=2019-03-25|first=Máté|last=Pétrány|publisher=Road & Track|access-date=2019-03-25}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.automobilemag.com/news/ferrari-p80-c/|title=This Is the Gorgeous One-Off Ferrari P80/C|date=2019-03-25|first=Collin|last=Woodard|publisher=Automobile Mag|access-date=2019-03-25}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.topgearhk.com/2019/03/26/ferrari-p80-c%E5%85%A8%E6%96%B0ferrari-one-off%E8%B2%B7%E5%AE%B6%E6%98%AF%E9%A6%99%E6%B8%AF%E4%BA%BA/|title=The only One-Off Ferrari P80/C buyer come from Hong Kong|date=2019-03-26|first=Chow|last=luby|publisher=TopGearhk|access-date=2019-03-25}}{{Cite web|url=https://magazine.ferrari.com/en/cars/2019/03/25/news/ferrari-p80-c-one-off-extreme-design-56416/|title=Discovering the new Ferrari P80/C|website=magazine.ferrari.com|access-date=2019-08-22}}
