Compared to the 458 Italia, the direct injection 4,499 cc V8 remains strictly in production tune, with an output of 570 hp at 9,000 rpm. That said, modifications have been made to the gear ratios and calibration of its dual-clutch F1 gearbox to guarantee higher torque at lower revs. The 458 Challenge is also equipped with the EDiff electronic differential already employed on the road-going version, a first for Ferrari's track-only cars. Significant work has also gone into cutting the car’s weight. This focused on both the exterior and interior with Ferrari’s engineers concentrating in particular on reducing the thickness of the body shell panels and on using lightweight materials, such as carbon fibre and Lexan. The new 458 Challenge also has a specific suspension set-up with steel uniball joints, stiffer springs, single-rate alloy dampers, centre-nut 19” forged rims, larger dimension Pirelli slicks and a ride height lowered by 50 mm all round. It is also equipped with the new generation Brembo CCM2 brakes integrated with the latest ABS system which debuted on the 599XX, Ferrari’s extreme experimental laboratory car.

Ferrari 458 Challenge world Premiere

IN Ferrari, 458, Italia, Challenge

The 458 Challenge is the star of the Bologna Motor Show while Ferrari burns up the track with Challenge and F1 cars.


Just 599 of the new 599 GTO models are being hand-built for clients around the world who seek the ultimate expression of high-performance driving, and the entire production has been sold out since April 2010. Designed on the platform of the production Ferrari 599 GTB, but developed to offer the ultimate performance, the 599 GTO is effectively a road-going version of the 599XX, the advanced experimental track car which led the Ferrari Owners Club track parade at the Singapore Grand Prix in September.
