Ferrari Amalfi Unveiled As Roma Successor, Brings Back This Iconic Feature

Ferrari has unveiled the Amalfi, a new 2+ coupe with a front-mid-mounted twin-turbo V8 engine. Replacing the Roma in Ferrari’s line-up, the Amalfi is positioned as a performance-oriented vehicle designed for everyday usability. Marking a notable shift in Ferrari’s interior design approach, the Amalfi reintroduces physical buttons on the steering wheel an iconic element making a return which will feature on all future Ferrari models.

The Amalfi is powered by a 3.9L twin-turbocharged V8 engine derived from Ferrari’s F154 family that produces 631 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 760 Nm of torque between 3,000 and 5,750 rpm paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Ferrari claims that the Amalfi can accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in 3.3 seconds, 0 to 200 kmph in 9 seconds and has a top speed of 320 kmph. The engine features new turbocharging calibrations and dedicated pressure sensors on each cylinder bank. A new engine control unit is also provided that allows precise control of turbo speed and throttle response. The gearbox software has also been updated to improve shift speed and smoothness.

Ferrari has made changes to the underbody and bodywork to enhance aerodynamic efficiency. A bypass duct near the headlights helps manage engine bay pressure, while redesigned diffusers and vortex generators increase downforce and brake cooling. The weight is evenly distributed front to rear (50:50), with a dry weight of 1,470 kg.

On the Inside, the Amalfi features a dual-cockpit layout with a new steering wheel that brings back physical buttons and the traditional start button. Three digital displays form the new human-machine interface: a 15.6-inch instrument cluster, a 10.25-inch central touchscreen and an 8.8-inch passenger display. Controls on the steering wheel include ADAS functions, phone controls and infotainment access. Rotary dials on the back of the wheel control media volume and stations.

Connectivity features include Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, both standard. A wireless smartphone charger is also included. An optional Burmester audio system is available. Customers can also opt for a front-lift system that raises the car by up to 40 mm below 35 kmph to clear obstacles.
