Ferrari is proud of the two models launched in 2011: the Ferrari FF and 458 Spider which respond to the expectations of two specific and different types of Ferrari customers. For an exclusive manufacturer like Ferrari, huge effort is required to create two models based on innovative and sophisticated technologies.

The Ferrari FF is so much more than a four wheel drive car. From the system that works on each wheel like full traction control, its 660 HP V12 engine and spectacular comfort, all of which make the FF an authentic piece of technological art. The groundbreaking technology and uniqueness of the FF’s four-wheel drive system guarantee exceptional performance even under heavy snow conditions.

Those who thought the words “four by four” would never be spoken at Maranello are wrong, when one considers that all-wheel drive has never really been considered functional to the performance of a Ferrari. Indeed, various innovations over the years and progresses made in modern tire technologies could have made the four-wheel drive pointless, due to the additional weight of mechanical components such as an extra ...
... drive shaft and differentials. But if the arrival of the FF has surprised many, the same cannot be said inside the Maranello technical Department. The engineers, who bring the same passion and innovation to every new Ferrari they work on, had never fully abandoned the four-wheel drive concept. Just as they never abandon every opportunity that can make Ferraris incomparable in their performance.

In line with Ferrari tradition, the FF structure has one basic advantage, which is a front, mid-mounted engine and a rear transaxle helping optimize weight distribution: 53 on the rear axle, which is a great result for a front-engine car. The challenge was to add the minimum weight even when introducing four-wheel drive. The solution, original yet simple in its concept, is to avoid a double shaft, transfer box and differentials.

The FF is a model designed for the entire world: drivable on daily basis, in any situation. Whatever at the golf course or packing for a weekend away, the FF with its adjustable luggage compartment has room enough for every occasion. Skis, golf bags and ample space to fix children’s chairs: as well as four comfortable seats are just some of the possibilities of this surprising Ferrari model.

As every Ferrari, the new Ferrari FF has a truly unique design approach and technology innovations to achieve indisputable performance and driving experience under all weather conditions.
