FORTY YEARS ON FROM THE UNVEILING OF FERRARI'S FIRST EVER MID-REAR-ENGINED V8 BERLINETTA, THE 308 GTB, THE PRANCING HORSE OPENS A NEW CHAPTER IN ITS 8-CYLINDER HISTORY.
The 488 GTB name marks a return to the classic Ferrari model designation with the 488 in its moniker indicating the engine's unitary displacement, while the GTB stands for Gran Turismo Berlinetta. The new car not only delivers unparalleled performance, it also makes that extreme power exploitable and controllable to an unprecedented level even by less expert drivers.
