Ferrari California hardtop convertible front-mid-mounted petrol direct-injection liter V8 engine to rear-wheel-drive vehicle
The Ferrari California was presented in 2008 at the Paris Motor Show. Name of production in the second half of the 1950 Ferrari 250 GT was summarised. The Ferrari California hardtop convertible first. The car is driven by the front-mid-mounted petrol direct-injection V8 engine that delivers 340 kW (450 hp) to the rear-wheel-drive vehicle. The California manufactured in Maranello, the new production line is built next to the existing factory is planned. The current production line of 27 cars a day roll off, or about 6000. The Ferrari California might just be the firm's most radical model. It’s the first Ferrari road car to have a front-mounted V8 engine, the first to have a dual-clutch gearbox and, although not the first to have a removable hard-top, is the first to follow the current trend of having a fully retractable one that electrically folds into its boot. That model was replaced by a short-wheelbase version in 1960. Another departure for Ferrari here is that all California variants to date have been top-end models made to a very limited production run. As such, the California opens up a new market to the brand. It’s a softer, more approachable Ferrari for those who like the idea but perhaps not the sharply honed execution of a normal Modenese car
