1200 HP Ferrari F80 is Maranello's first-ever V6 flagship

Ferrari has not been resting on its laurels this year. After releasing the 12Cilindri as its most powerful V12-powered vehicle, the Maranello-based brand has unleashed its most powerful supercar yet.

Say buon giorno to the 2025 Ferrari F80, the brand’s first-ever electrified twin-turbo V6 flagship. That’s right, after the F50, Enzo, and LaFerrari flagship cars which all came with a V12 under the hood, Ferrari decided to switch things up with the F80.

At the heart of this monstrous beast is not a V12 engine. Instead, the F80 comes equipped with an electrified twin-turbo 3.0L V6. The six-cylinder engine (codenamed F163CF) is actually closely related to the race-bred 499P’s motor which won back-to-back victories at Le Mans in 2023 and 2024.

The engine alone generates an impressive 900 PS at 8750 rpm, 850 Nm of torque at 5500 rpm, and a 9000 rpm redline. But thanks to three electric motors and a 2.28 kWh battery pack, the F80 has a total system output of 1,200 PS, eclipsing the already impressive figures of the 12Cilindri and the 296 GTS.

Ferrari says the F80 can catapult itself from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.15 seconds from a standstill. Equally impressive is that Ferrari also claims the F80 can go from 0 to 200 km/h in a blistering 5.75 seconds. Top speed is rated at a hair-raising 350 km/h.

A total of three drive modes are available for the F80, Hybrid, Performance, and Qualify. Hybrid acts as the normal drive mode and focuses on managing an efficient drive while also delivering usable power. It also prioritizes energy recovery and battery charge maintenance. Next up is Performance which is geared towards delivering constant power during extended stints on the track - optimizing energy flow and keeping the battery at 70% charge.

Last but not least is Qualify which unleashes all available power at the driver’s disposal. Both the twin-turbo V6 and hybrid system work in unison to deliver all available horsepower and torque to the wheels for utmost performance.

Going fast also means having to slow down even faster. With that, Ferrari equipped the F80 with CCM-R Plus technology. Co-developed with Brembo, the special braking system makes use of materials and technology derived from the Prancing Horse’s expertise in motorsports. This allows the F80 to brake faster while also ensuring prolonged use even at extreme circuit conditions.

Two tire choices are available for the F80 - Pilot Sport Cup 2 and Pilot Sport Cup 2 R. Both sets are available in sizes 285/30/20 and 345/30/R21 (front & rear). The tires were co-developed with Michelin and feature a casing and tread designed specifically to offer a thrilling driving experience and maximized usability.

To keep the electrified F80 lightweight and rigid, Ferrari made generous use of composites and lightweight alloys. The tub, passenger cell, and roof are all made from carbon fiber composites while the subframes underneath are made from aluminum. As for the bodyshell, it has lightweight butterfly-style doors that can open up to 90 degrees and a distinct hood with large vents that help keep the powertrain at optimal temperature.

Some might expect the F80 to come with a racing-derived suspension system complete with pushrods and other complex parts. Ferrari did not go for that and instead actually borrowed technology from the Purosangue. Instead of having anti-roll bars to keep the vehicle planted, it makes use of 48V electric motors.

Expecting to get one for yourself? Better be quick as Ferrari will only produce 799 examples globally. Each one will also cost you an arm and a leg as it will retail for USD 3.9 million or around PHP 225.38 million.
