Ferrari Amalfi comes as a sleek grand tourer replacing the Roma, blends enhanced performance and modern design
Ferrari has introduced the Ferrari Amalfi, a stunning 2+ coupé that steps in as the successor to the beloved Roma.
Named after Italy’s picturesque Amalfi Coast, this grand tourer combines classic Ferrari elegance with cutting-edge upgrades, promising an exhilarating drive for enthusiasts. But what makes the Ferrari Amalfi stand out, and when can drivers expect to see it on the roads?
What Powers the Ferrari Amalfi’s Performance?
The heart of the Ferrari Amalfi lies in its refined 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, now delivering 640 horsepower—20hp more than the Roma. This power boost, paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, propels the Amalfi from 0-100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds, with a top speed of 320 km/h.
How does Ferrari achieve this? A lighter camshaft and a performance-optimised ECU enhance responsiveness, especially in higher gears. The car also features advanced aerodynamics, including an active rear wing that adds 110kg of downforce, ensuring stability at high speeds. Could these upgrades make the Amalfi a new benchmark for grand tourers?
How Does the Design Evolve from the Roma?
The Ferrari Amalfi introduces a fresh aesthetic while retaining the Roma’s graceful silhouette. Every body panel, except the glasshouse, is new, with a front design inspired by Ferrari’s Purosangue SUV. Sleek LED headlights and a bold mesh grille enhance its aggressive stance.
The Verde Costiera teal finish, inspired by the Amalfi Coast, adds a vibrant touch. Inside, the cabin feels futuristic, with a 10.25-inch infotainment screen, a 15.6-inch driver display, and physical steering wheel controls replacing the Roma’s capacitive ones. Why did Ferrari return to physical buttons? Perhaps to offer drivers a more tactile, engaging experience.
The revamped aluminium central console, housing the gear selector and key slot, elevates the interior’s premium feel. Does this blend of style and function redefine luxury in sports cars?
When and Where Will the Ferrari Amalfi Arrive?
Ferrari Amalfi is expected to hit global markets in early 2026, with India likely seeing it shortly after, given Ferrari’s quick regional launches.
Priced around $283,000 (approximately Rs 4 crore in India), it’s slightly higher than the Roma’s $259,000 starting price. Production begins early next year, and the Roma Spider will remain available until a drop-top Amalfi arrives.
What does this mean for buyers? A chance to own a refined grand tourer with enhanced performance and modern tech, perfect for long-distance drives. Will the Ferrari Amalfi’s blend of heritage and innovation make it a must-have for enthusiasts?
The Ferrari Amalfi builds on the Roma’s legacy, offering a sporty yet versatile experience. Its upgrades in power, design, and technology position it as a compelling choice in Ferrari’s lineup. As anticipation grows, the Amalfi promises to captivate drivers with its blend of Italian craftsmanship and thrilling performance.
