Believe it or not, it’s been six years since we first laid eyes on Ferrari’s entry-level grand tourer, the Roma. It was a car that excited as many as it did confuse others, as its styling was so dramatically different to the models it would sit amongst in the Ferrari stable. But, as the years rolled by and modern-era supercars continued to become more extreme, the Roma’s elegant styling has stolen hearts, and now, there’s a new name in town – the Ferrari Amalfi.
Along with the new name, the Amalfi boasts a host of new features, both in the car’s exterior styling and interior components. The Amalfi's bodywork stems from the minimalist approach first taken with the Roma, with clean surfaces that allow for a truly elegant and timeless design. The Amalfi features a new front end, which is dominated by a large air intake and a long, sculpted bonnet, which houses the turbocharged V8 engine. At the rear, the Roma’s influence is present, and the cleanliness continues with sculpted rear lights and a new integrated active spoiler that contributes to high-speed stability. Its rear glass panel now extends out to the far edges of the tailgate, aiding practicality when using the surprisingly spacious rear boot thanks to the car’s 2+ configuration.
Step inside the Amalfi and you’ll immediately spot a glorious return for physical buttons and a driver-focused cabin layout. The cabin adopts a dual-cockpit configuration, with a new steering wheel featuring a welcome return to physical buttons, with the iconic start button also present and correct. The integrated central display aids usability for the driver, with carbon fibre and contrasting stitching throughout the interior. While the 2+ configuration doesn't strictly make the Amalfi a four-seater, it does allow the rear seats add significantly to the car’s practicality while allowing children to experience 0-100 kph in just 3.3 seconds!
Once more, Ferrari have perfectly aimed their sights at those seeking a car that combines elegance and performance with the Amalfi. It is a model that interprets the Ferrari sporting spirit in an ultra-sleek and modern way, offering a driving experience that is immediately recognisable as a Ferrari, while allowing drivers and passengers to unwind and relax surrounded by comfort and luxury. The Amalfi will arrive with its first customers in early 2026, with a predicted price tag somewhere north of €260,000. The big question is – Portofino, Roma, Amalfi, where’s next on this all-Italian road trip?
