At the 80th Geneva Motor Show
this week Novitec Rosso is showing off the latest products
of its Ferrari tuning programme: a upgraded California and
430 Scuderia lining up alongside the ultra-exclusive 599 GTB
Fiorano "Race 848" on the occasion of its world première.
The German tuner has announced
that just three highly modified
versions of the 599 GTB Fiorano with 848 bhp and 852 Nm;
dubbed the "Race 848" will be built. In matt white
and featuring distinct matt black highlights it is being
shown on the Novitec Rosso stand alongside a California
which shows off sporty styling
add-ons, a custom-tailored tyre/wheel combination with
diameters of 21 and 22 inches, suspension modifications,
more power and exclusive interior options. A tuned Ferrari
430 Scuderia completes the line-up at the Swiss Palexpo.
The brand-new
"Race 848" is the star of the Novitec Rosso stand, and the
twelve-cylinder Ferrari engine benefits from Novitec Rosso's
twin compressor conversion package to produce 848 hp (624
kW) of power and has a peak torque of 842 Nm. The
high-performance superchargers have an electronically
limited boost pressure of 0.48 bars and are driven by a
cogged belt and have their own dedicated oil circuit. A
large water-to-air intercooler with dedicated water circuit
also contributes greatly to the optimal power yield. A
custom-developed intake manifold, high-performance injectors
and sport air filter round out the engine conversion.
It all means that the Race 848 sprints
from rest to 100 km/h in less than 3.4 seconds, to 300 km/h
in just 23.7 seconds, and reaches a top speed in excess of
345 km/h. This exclusive model also features an
aerodynamic-enhancement kit that Novitec Rosso says was
developed in the wind tunnel, three piece 21-inch wheels
with matching sports suspension, a high-performance brake
system and exclusive interior options, including an
individually-numbered plaque.
