Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo

The Ferrari 488 Challenge is a vehicle designed for race track enthusiasts, featuring a powertrain specifically optimized for racing performance. Compared to the production 488 GTB V8, the Challenge's engine mapping has been modified to maximize its potential on the track, resulting in shorter gear ratios, and a new racing shift strategy enabling acceleration from a standstill to maximum revs in just six seconds.

Evo like evolution. This is the spirit of the Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo, unveiled during the World Finals at Mugello in October 2019 and the star of the 2020 racing season. The new mechanical and aerodynamic upgrade kit, also available for existing vehicles, promises even better overall performance and even greater driving pleasure.

The new Evo kit delivers improved performance, particularly the increased downforce, and the Pirelli tire design guarantees outstanding performance. In addition, the forward shift of the aerodynamic balance between the axles improves cornering, with quicker entry and reduced understeer on exit. For the driver, this translates into an unrivaled driving experience, which has been perfected after an intensive initial development phase with the simulator.

The racing spirit is evident in the interior starting with the steering wheel based on the experience gained with the FXX- K Evo and the 488 GTE winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
