Ferrari GTC4 Lusso information
The Ferrari GTC4 Lusso is a grand tourer like no other. Launched in 2016, this luxury supercar is the perfect blend of sportiness, elegance and performance, offering around four seats ideal for short city breaks or long-distance trips around Spain.
Costing more than €280,000, Ferrari has used advanced mechanics and techniques to ensure a comfortable and exhilarating ride even on the most difficult terrain. Its four-wheel drive system allows luxury car rental enthusiasts to enjoy the power and design of Ferrari anywhere in the world, either alone or sharing the experience with up to three passengers.
The Ferrari GTC4 has a 4RM all-wheel drive system, which was already mounted on the FF, has evolved to the current 4RM-S, which adds the four steering wheels actuated by electronics: The Ferrari GTC4 Lusso (capable of going from 0 to 100 km /h in 3.4 seconds and reaching 335 km/h) knows how to be docile when you go for a walk, but it becomes a real beast if you whip the 689 CV of the powerful 6.3-liter V12 (aspirated and with direct injection of fuel), which are projected in the blink of an eye at speeds incompatible with roads open to traffic.
But of course the version of the Ferrari GTC4 Lusso equipped with the V8 California Turbo T8 (with a power of up to 609 CV) and with the only rear-wheel drive is no less so: some sixty kg lighter than the V12 and also equipped with the system integral address, “pays” less than 20 km / h top speed and only one tenth more in the shot from 0 to 100 km / h.
One thing to keep in mind is its folding backrests that allow the trunk to be expanded from 450 liters of normal capacity to 800.
As expected, the gearbox is a seven-speed dual-clutch. It’s linked to Ferrari’s latest 4WD EVO iteration of its unique four-wheel drive system.
A power transfer unit (PTU) takes power directly from the crankshaft at the front of the engine and distributes it to the front wheels. The benefits attributed to this Ferrari-patented system are weight reduction, better weight distribution (47% front and 53% rear on the GTC4Lusso) and faster response times.
To help driving, there is the four-wheel steering system. This system debuted on the F12 tdf and is here combined with the 4WD all-wheel drive system that debuted on the FF. The system also integrates a brake-based differential, adjustable dampers and Ferrari’s Side Slip Control function to optimize handling, especially in adverse conditions such as snow-covered roads.
Luxury materials and finishes embellish the interiors of the Ferrari GTC4 Lusso. Compared to the outgoing model, the steering wheel (with carbon fiber paddles to manually actuate the seven-speed robotic gearbox) is slightly smaller in diameter; the dashboard is always dominated by the tachometer with a yellow background, but the dashboard shows, in the center, a new 10.25″ touch screen capable of simultaneously displaying different contents for the driver and passenger (Split View function).
In the Ferrari GTC4 Lusso, a second screen is added, to the right of the dashboard, which shows the passenger’s data (speed, gear engaged, engine revolutions, lateral acceleration in curves) useful to experience even more in first person the emotion of being aboard this car.
The seats in the Ferrari GTC4 Lusso are pretty good considering it’s a Ferrari. Seeing someone sitting on the seat in it makes you realize how incredibly cozy it is. A kind of center console and the door itself hug the hips, but leave room for the arms, which makes it seem soothing.
The Ferraris of yesteryear are known for being mostly Spartan on the inside, with lines that look like you’re already revving up and lots of cylindrical shapes holding vents and controls. Not much has changed, but the infotainment has been modernized.
Unique drive type, the 4WD drive system is a pretty key part of your sports car experience. Essentially, the car remains in rear-wheel drive until the Ferrari detects the slide in less than a hundredth of a second and activates the front tires to help. According to Ferrari, this is better than constant all-wheel drive, as the system is half the weight of most all-wheel drive systems.
Finally, there is the unique and characteristic sound of its V12 engine which excels in every conceivable aspect with extremely loud and aggressive high-pitched sounds that sound like a racing car symphony.
