Ferrari 488 Pista
Ferrari’s latest lightweight special is the 488 Pista. It borrows from the 488 GTE and Challenge racers to make an even faster street car.
It uses the company’s most powerful V8 ever. The 3.9-liter engine makes 710 horsepower at a screaming 8,000 rpm. That means 0-60 mph in under three seconds and a top speed well over 200 mph.
Inconel exhaust manifolds trim weight, along with a carbon intake and titanium rods. It all makes for a 200-pound drop from the 488 GTB. To help you manage the power, it has Ferrari’s latest Side Slip Angle Control System.
Porsche Mission E Cross Turismo
It’s a lifted electric four-door from Porsche at the Geneva Auto Show. An SUV with the emphasis on sport, emphasis on green, and emphasis on Panamera styling.
The Mission E Cross Turismo packs 600 horsepower from its electric motors and can hit 60 mph from a stop in 3.5 seconds. Importantly for a performance electric, Porsche says it can handle multiple launches in a row without losing that performance, something other EVs can’t do.
The Mission E uses Porsche’s new 800-v fast charging concept that can fill a battery much quicker than current tech.
