The new Ferrari California T convertible marks the return of the Italian supercar manufacturer using turbocharged powertrains in its mainstream models.
The replacement for the current California, the new California T is powered by a low-mounted direct-injection 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine producing 552bhp at 7500rpm and 557lb ft of torque. The new car will make its world debut at the Geneva motor show next month.
Ferrari says the California T can accelerate from rest to 62mph in 3.6 seconds and has a top speed of 196mph, both marginal improvements over the old model.
Maranello has managed to reduce the fuel consumption of the new California by around 15 per cent over its predecessor, equivalent to 27mpg on a combined cycle. CO2 emissions have also been reduced to 250g/km with a stop-start system, a significant reduction from the 270g/km of the outgoing car.
The new California T features an upgraded crankshaft and exhaust manifold, which Ferrari says allows the car to sound "even more potent" than before. Spy photographers have previously reported the new car sounds much louder than the current California.
Alongside new carbon-ceramic brakes which allow the California T to come to a complete halt from 62mph in 34 metres, Ferrari has given the new car an upgraded suspension setup, featuring new springs and the latest generation of Magnaride dampers, which work 50 per cent faster than before.
Ferrari says this means the California T handles better than before, with a more comfortable ride. Its steering setup has also been revised to improve response. The new California has a dry weight of 1625kg when fitted with optional lightweight equipment.
Styling wise, the California T retains the overall dimensions of the current generation, but with a subtle redesign inspired by the F12 and the FF. Ferrari says the shape of the new car's flanks is inspired by the 250 Testa Rossa of the 1950s, while a new diffuser can be seen at the rear. The California T retains its predecessor's hard-top roof, which retracts in 14 seconds.
Inside, Ferrari has significantly upgraded the California's cabin, giving it new leather trim, a new 6.5-inch central touchscreen infotainment system and its Turbo Performance Engineer, a seperate touch-controlled screen showing engine data. The usual buttons for engaging Race mode and Launch Control are also present.
Orders for the California T will open at the Geneva motor show, with first UK deliveries expected in September. Customers who haven't already pre-ordered the model will have to wait until next year for delivery, however. While Ferrari hasn't revealed an official price for the California T, it's expected to cost around the same as the current model, at £152,154.
The California T's 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine has been developed as part of a new five-year investment plan announced by Ferrari boss Luca di Montezemolo in September last year. The company has committed to investing two billion euros before 2018, with the bulk of the money being used to develop new road cars and new engines.
While a version of the engine has already been seen in action in the Maserati Quattroporte and Ghibli models, Ferrari says its powerplant is significantly different, with a larger capacity (3855cc vs 3799cc), more power (552bhp vs 523bhp) and greater torque (557lb ft vs 524lb ft). The engine is greener in the Ferrari, too, with CO2 emissions of 250g/km when coupled with a stop/start system compared to 274g/km in the Maserati, where a stop/start function isn't available.
Ferrari's version also uses a new flat plane crank which the firm says is designed to offer better performance.
Ferrari's last turbocharged road car, the F40, entered production in 1987. Other mainstream Ferraris with turbocharged engines include the 208 GTB, 288 GTO and the GTS Turbo, a variant of the 328.

M'n sarcasmemeter kan kapot zijn, of ik kijk naar 'n ander filmpje dan Ferdinand, maar dat ding klinkt gewoon meer dan goed.

Niet 't gekrijs van 'n 458, maar wel degelijk exotisch en zwaar en vele malen stoerder dan bijv 'n crossplane M3 V8 imo.


Dit is 'n flatplane toch?
