Ferrari Tailor-Made is the new personalisation programme from Maranello developed specifically for clients wishing to create a truly bespoke car that will be a clear expression of their own unique personalities and tastes. The Tailor-Made programme continues a longstanding Maranello tradition which began in the 1950s and 60s, a time when clients personalised their cars as a matter of course and enjoyed huge freedom when it came to materials, colours and finish. 

The 36th edition of the Bologna Motor Show provides the venue for the unveiling of the 599XX. Ferrari has introduced a package of performance-enhancing technical features available to clients participating in the track-based research and development programme for the 2012-2013 seasons.

'We have lost a friend, a travel companion, a man who had his name forever connected to the Prancing Horse.  Sergio Scaglietti leaves behind the legacy of an artist who with his talent created some of the most beautiful cars of our history.  Who had the luck to know him like I did will also remember him as a straightforward and honest man, completely dedicated to his work.  We will miss him.” These are the words of Ferrari Chairman Luca di Montezemolo regarding the death of Sergio Scaglietti, the legendary Ferrari coachbuilder, who created some of the most famous models from the manufacturer from Maranello, such as the Ferrari California, the 250 Testa Rossa, the 250 GTO and the 750 Monza.

A day after history was made in India, courtesy a successful finish to the first ever Formula One GP in the country, Ferrari launched its boldest car yet, the FF, in India. We say bold, for Ferrari has never done a production AWD car before the FF. 

The Ferrari 458 Italia has been awarded the title of “Performance Car of the Year” by Auto Express magazine for the second year in a row.

The new 458 Spider joins the 458 Italia, widening the range of Ferrari’s mid-rear engined V8s and offering the same uncompromising technological solutions, handling and performance in a refined open-top configuration. It is equipped with a Ferrari patented, fully retractable hard top, a world first for a sports car with this lay-out.

Ferrari could unveil the Spyder version of the 458 Italia at the Frankfurt Motorshow 2011, which is happening in the month of September. The Spyder version will have the same 4.5-litre V8 that produces 570bhp and 542Nm of torque. The car will be up for sale in the European market from the same month. 

Starting from today all the Ferrari enthusiasts and clients in India can count on the official presence of Ferrari in the country, 58th market of the Prancing Horse, as the first dealership in the heart of New Delhi opens its doors. The Grand Opening, dedicated to the local and international medias, was hosted by Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa, Ferrari Commercial and Marketing Director Enrico Galliera, and Ashish Chordia, Chairman of the Shreyans Group, the Ferrari importer for the country. The Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro drivers, Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa, already in Montecarlo for next race, sent their greetings to the guests through a video message, looking forward to coming to India in October for the first Indian GP.

After much speculation, we now have an official confirmation from the house of the prancing horse - Ferrari has finally announced its launch date. The first Ferrari dealership in India will open shop in Delhi coming Thursday, on May 26. The inauguration will be held at dealership which is situated in Janpath.

As Ferrari makes its way to India there is an obvious curiosity as to what cars are coming here. To begin with, they will bring in the 8 cylinders Ferrari California and 458 Italia, and the 12 cylinders 599GTB Fiorano, joined by the FF, the latest model launched by Ferrari, presented at the Geneva Motor Show held recently.
