Ferrari has extended the F8 line-up with the addition of a new droptop F8 Spider. The model is 24 kilograms lighter and only 24 kilograms heavier than the 488 Pista Spider. The model’s good looks are not only for show but also improve efficiency with aerodynamics improved by 10%.

The F8 Spider gains a retractable roof that can be retracted or deployed in 14 seconds at speeds of up to 45 km/h.

The new convertible from Maranello is powered by a twin-turbo 3.9-liter V8 engine with 530 kW of power and 770 Nm of torque. This means the F8 Spider is able to do the 0-100 km/h sprint in just 2,9 seconds with a top speed of 340 km/h. This is a notable improvement of the 488 Spider’s top speed of 325 km/h.
