The Ferrari GTC4Lusso was launched in India today, with prices starting at INR 4.2 crore (ex-showrrom, India). The Grand Tourer will be available in two trims, the GTC4Lusso and the GTC4Lusso T and come with a price tag of INR 5.2 crore and INR 4.2 crore respectively. The model was launched by Aurelian Sauvard, Marketing Manager, Ferrari Middle East & India, and Sharad Kachalia of Navnit Motors, at the Navnit Motors Ferrari Showroom in Mumbai.
The GTC4Lusso category refers to four, both with its four-seater configuration and the integration of rear-wheel steering with four-wheel drive for the first time. The GTC4Lusso is aimed at customers that appreciate all the luxury passion, performance and power of the Maranello stable, but merged with a versatility and sense of adventure. At the front, the new dual cockpit architecture enhances the shared driving experience lit both driver and passenger. In fact, four plush wraparound seats create the same ambience as a luxurious living space for all occupants.
The GTC4Lusso T is the first four-seater to be powered by a V8 turbo engine. The model is equipped with an evolution of the 3.9-litre V8 turbo which was awarded the 2016 International Engine of the Year. This engine produces 601 hp at 7,500 rpm and 760 Nm of torque between 3,000-5,250 rpm.
Combining this power in with rear wheel drive has resulted in significant weight-saving. Adding four-wheel steering to the mix gives the car additional agility and quicker responses. The rear-wheel steering system is integrated with the latest evolution of the electronic controls of the SCM-E suspension, ESP 9.0 and third generation Side Slip Control (SSC3).
One of the selection criteria for the material adopted for the GTC4Lusso T was weight reduction to heighten the sense of sporty luxury typical of a thoroughbred Ferrari. The navigation and infotainment platform, featuring a 10.25′ HD screen with capacitive touch technology, is new too. All cars feature the new 10.25 inch touchscreen passenger display as well. Also on offer is Apple CarPlay and an upgraded audio system.
