Ferrari is all set to debut its newest bellisimo car very, very soon and it’s already one of its most anticipated new launches of the season.
The new Roma, named for Italy’s charismatic capital city Rome, is not just a pretty face. The new coupe has a powerful V8 turbo engine that enables the car to go 100 kilometers per hour in 3.4 seconds and hit and hits 200 kph in 9.3 seconds.
The Roma takes its design inspiration from 250GT Ferraris of the La Dolce Vita period in Rome of the ’50s and ’60s.
The car weighs 1,472kg, and according to the brand’s chief marketing officer Enrico Galliera, the Roma was created to entice new customers to join the Ferrari family as a “less intimidating car” for the luxury SUV generation.
Speaking to Automotive News Europe, he said: “Most of them don’t buy a Ferrari because they don’t know how fun it is to drive one. We want to lower barriers with a less intimidating car.”
