Center of gravity is lower. Reports are- Except for hard breaking feels light because of the way the technology is applied. It’s a new world. We shall see. Have you driven a Taycan Turbo S?
Why would you say that? Cutting edge technology. Instant response. Fast. The Taycan handles like a Porsche and the steering is better than both my 458 and F12. I think it’s a bargain that will only get better. Electric cars are much, much cheaper to maintain as they have dramatically less parts. Will they ever be more enjoyable than normally aspirated cars with great engines? I don’t think so. And I will keep the ICE cars that provide the most pleasure. And electric cars will be great in a different way. For now- Hybrids provide the best performance of both worlds. Pleasure? TBD.
People are so obsessed with this weight. Must be mclaren’s marketing as that’s the only thing they can brag about. Wonder why don’t we all drive go karts otherwise
My Maranello has half the power of the SF90 and weighs the same...I have a great deal of fun driving that car through the hills. My CS is of course in a league of its own for spirited drives. I just think pretty much every time something new is introduced, the purists scoff at it, the younger generation fantasizes about it, and people who just want the latest and greatest enjoy it. Eventually, either the purists come around to it...or the younger generation comes of age and into some money and they go shopping for their "classic" Ferrari dream car...and values bottom or start rising. Seems to rinse and repeat.
Agreed. 3461lbs dry isn't even that bad for a modern high tech, nearly 1000hp car. Chiron is 4359lbs LaFerrari is 3495lbs Rimac is 4000+ What else is there that's 1k hp+ and significantly less weight that doesn't start at $2m+
No it isn’t. It’s 1735kg including fuel and 75kg for the driver, therefore in the low 1600’s wet without fuel or driver. That is an actual weighed car Mr.Lucid.
Weifht can be a bad thing or good thing. Too light car will have hard time puting the power down to ground. Too heavy car will suffer through turns. 812 is heavy in a way that the smoother the input the batter car handles. It is just how to drive rather heavy side FR sports car. People tend to expect 812 behaves same as 488. 812 gives different sort of enjoyment through turns. This car will be fun with natural safty margin of weight and 4wd through turns. Also the torque from the e motor will add some excitement too. This will be a great car. Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
