Ferrari 488 GTB is a 3902 cc V8 turbo. This might be the first turbo-charged Ferrari in more than two decades, if we are not mistaken but Ferrari has promised that all future engines will be turbocharged or hybridized so this is perhaps the just the first in a long goodbye to naturally aspirated power plants.
The new engine amazes with some 661 horses at 8,000 rpm and a torque of 760Nm at 3000 rpm. This compares very favourably against the Ferrari 458, which it replaces. That legend only manages 562 horses, with a torque of 540 Nm at 6,000 rpm.
