A break from the past, the Ferrari 458 Italia is the most technologically advanced berlinetta in Ferrari’s distinguished history.

This fiery little berlinetta is built to emphasize the intuitive relationship between man and machine. From handling the trail ahead to the layout of the cockpit, this automobile is truly driver-oriented.

Ergonomics, aerodynamics, electronics, chassis, and powertrain are all more than updated from the F430. The Ferrari 458 Italia is a completely new beast. Inside and out, the F1 influences are apparent and once behind the wheel, you’re certain to feel the difference yourself.

Ferrari’s track experience shines through in the Ferrari 458 Italia with a bevy of innovations. Notably, the 458’s “active aerodynamics”, smoothing airflow around — and through the car’s body, strategically keeping the powerful, 562-horsepower V8 running cool while also providing necessary downforce to keep this prancing pony well-grounded at speed. Beyond cutting drag, Ferrari has economized the engine by giving pistons and tappets low-friction coatings, providing even more immediate power to the driver resulting in a pulse-quickening 0-to-62-mph time of under 3.4 seconds and top speed of 202 mph.
