Ferrari's F80 Takes Manhattan: The $4 Million Hybrid Hypercar Hits Times Square
Ferrari's latest hypercar just lit up Times Square brighter than the billboards surrounding it.
The F80 represents Ferrari's most audacious leap since the F40 shocked the world in 1987.
V12 Tradition Tossed for Twin-Turbo Hybrid Tech
Ferrari ditched their sacred naturally-aspirated V12 formula. Blasphemy or brilliance?
The F80 packs a mid-mounted 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 producing 900 hp on its own. Not enough? Ferrari added an electric front axle and F1-derived MGU-K for another 300 hp.
Total output: 1200 hp of Italian fury.
Performance figures read like science fiction:
- 0-62 mph: 2.15 seconds
- Top speed: 217 mph
This makes the F80 Ferrari's most powerful road car ever built. Period.
F40-Inspired Design Meets Cutting-Edge Aero
The F80's silhouette pays homage to the legendary F40 while incorporating modern aerodynamic wizardry.
Butterfly doors swing upward to reveal a race-inspired cockpit wrapped in carbon fiber and Alcantara. The H-pattern drive mode selector sits prominently, reminding you this is no ordinary Ferrari.
Active aerodynamics dominate the exterior. An S-duct channels air through the front while an active rear wing deploys at speed. Every curve serves a purpose beyond looking spectacular.
Exclusivity Comes at a Price
Only 799 examples will ever exist. Each carries a starting price around $4 million.
Some dealers reportedly quote upwards of $6 million for build slots. Despite early rumors of unsold allocations, Ferrari has confirmed all units are spoken for.
The F80's American tour began with its Times Square debut, drawing crowds despite the exclusivity that ensures most will never see one in person.
Ferrari's US tour continues with stops at select dealerships nationwide, giving enthusiasts rare glimpses of Maranello's new technological flagship before these hypercars disappear into climate-controlled garages of the ultra-wealthy.
The F80 doesn't just replace the LaFerrari. It redefines what a Ferrari can be.
