Ferrari has unveiled the new Amalfi, a front-mid-engine V8 2+ coupé that replaces the Ferrari Roma in the Prancing Horse line-up.

The evolved twin-turbo V8 at the heart of the Ferrari Amalfi is derived from the award-winning F154 family, capable of delivering 640 cv thanks to new turbocharging calibrations. The eight-speed dual-clutch transmission ensures fast and smooth gear changes. Performance is outstanding: 0–100 km/h in 3.3 seconds, 0–200 km/h in 9.0 seconds, with a power-to-weight ratio of 2.29 kg/hp.

Minimalistic approach

“The car’s design stems from a fluid and minimalist approach, with sculpted volumes and clean surfaces that express modernity and dynamism. The front is dominated by a large air intake and a long, sculpted bonnet. At the rear, the integrated active spoiler contributes to high-speed stability, while forged wheels and carbon fibre details complete a sporty and sophisticated aesthetic,” the company said.

The interiors

Inside, the cabin adopts a dual-cockpit layout, with a new steering wheel featuring physical buttons and the return of the iconic start button. The integrated central display and ergonomic controls ensure intuitive interaction with the car, even during dynamic driving. Extensive use of carbon fibre and contrasting stitching adds a touch of exclusivity, while the 2+ configuration allows the rear seats to be used to significantly increase the car’s practicality, enhancing cargo capacity and allowing trips with children.

High on tech

The Ferrari Amalfi incorporates the latest technological solutions from the Ferrari range: the infotainment system is fully connected, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, paired with wireless smartphone charging. The new steering wheel, digital instrument cluster, and 10.25” horizontal central display offers an advanced human-machine interface designed to engage both driver and passenger. Among the features available on request is the addition of the front lifter system usable up to 35 km/h, allowing the car to easily overcome urban obstacles by raising it by up to 40 mm.

Completing the onboard experience, the optional Burmester premium audio system offers an immersive sound environment, designed to accompany every journey with quality and detail.

The exterior

The Ferrari Amalfi represents a new interpretation of the archetype of the 2+ coupé berlinetta with a front-mid-mounted V8 engine. The Ferrari Styling Centre team, led by Flavio Manzoni, drew inspiration from the elegant proportions of the Ferrari Roma, pushing further to define a more sculpted and modern form without betraying the essence of Ferrari’s 2+ sports cars.

The exterior design develops from a sleek, monolithic speedform that gives the car a strong and dynamic identity. The surfaces are treated with a minimalist approach, where sharp lines and geometric volumes define a sculpted and coherent body. The wedge-shaped theme running along the side, together with the lighting units integrated into technical cuts, contributes to a refined and contemporary aesthetic. The front, devoid of a traditional grille, is distinguished by a floating body-coloured wing above a dark recessed band, discreetly integrating sensors and headlights. The lower splitter completes the composition, emphasizing the visual width and sportiness of the whole.

The rear is defined by a strong character line that wraps around the entire volume, culminating in a compact and clean tail. The tail lights are hidden within essential graphic cuts, evoking classic Ferraris while using a modern visual language. The wide and functional diffuser openly declares its aerodynamic purpose, while the rear screen merges with the spoiler profile, creating a distinctive stylistic signature. Highlighting the car’s personality, the launch colour, Verde Costiera — a brilliant teal green inspired by the reflections of the sea along the Amalfi coast — enhances the sculpted surfaces and brings a fresh, vibrant look to the whole.
