The Ferrari F430 was first shown to the general public at the 2004 Paris Motor Show. This was a logical continuation of the model of the same
360 Modena brand. The sports car was produced from 2006 to 2009.
In the new Ferrari F430, auto show visitors were asked to look at a sports coupe designed for a driver and one passenger. Experts said that the car received a body type called Berlinetta. The car was equipped with rear-wheel drive and a centrally located engine.
The most impressive element of this car is its air intakes. They remind shark nose. True, it is worth noting that this feature was borrowed from 156 models. It is also impossible to call the Ferrari F430 the most beautiful car, since it has several other advantages. Each gram of mass of this car is saturated with a variety of technical innovations. Among the designers of the company, this model is called the evolving F131.
Car F430 is a car with the next step in the use of metal designed for space technology. Among the most significant innovations that have been added to the car, it is worth noting the E-Diff, that is, the system
electronic differential. In addition, the designers borrowed another feature from the 599 GTB Fiorano, namely a small lever on the steering wheel, which is used for tuning.
The new Ferrari F430 received a lightweight engine with a V-shaped 8-cylinder, which is capable of delivering 490 horsepower. This power allows you to tame the brake system, which received disks made of carbon ceramic. It is worth noting that the lack of transmission, which was taken from the instance for Formula 1, would reduce the technical characteristics of the machine. It is this unit that contributes to gear shifting in just 150 milliseconds. It is worth noting that the Ferrari F430 Spider, a model with a hinged roof, just like a regular version of a car, can reach a speed of 310 km / h.
The dynamics of the car is provided by a low mass of only 1,450
kilogram. Marketers, when characterizing aerodynamics, said that the car accelerates, as if in a vacuum.
This model found its continuation in the anniversary version of the Ferrari F430 Scuderia, which was equipped with a 510-horsepower engine. This car is adapted for use on public roads. Engine traction is now controlled by an electronic system. The robotic gearbox reduces the shift process to 60 milliseconds. In addition, the Ferrari F430 Scuderia has lost weight, and now its weight is only 1250 kilograms. It is worth noting that in this version of the car the maximum speed also increased and amounts to 319 kilometers per hour. The machine is suitable for public roads, and is also equipped with a special system for stabilizing the steering. It has five modes of operation of this system.
The environmental concern of our time, namely the use of ethanol as fuel, has also been taken into account. Now the harm done to nature is minimized. The cost of the new F430 has a fairly expanded range, since the minimum configuration will cost only 187 thousand dollars, while the “stuffed” car will cost about 217 thousand.
