New car rebels against electrification: Achingly beautiful 2026 Ferrari Amalfi coupe revealed with stinking twin-turbo V8 grunt and old school motoring charm

Ooft, Ferrari has done it again.

The Prancing Horse has taken the covers off its new Amalfi coupe, which replaces the Roma in its line-up.

The 2+2 coupe maintains the Roma’s grand tourer ethos paired with achingly beautiful looks.

It’s a return to no nonsense motoring, with no electrification and fiddly digital controls in sight.

Power comes from a 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8, which makes 470kW and 760Nm matched to an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic that drives the rear wheels.

Peak power is delivered at 7500rpm, just below the 7600rpm redline, which means to access its full complement of grunt you’ll need to hear that engine scream.

It can hit 100km/h from a standstill in just 3.3 seconds on the way to a top speed of 320km/h.

An array of tweaks have been made to the engine’s performance that increase its power, efficiency and lower its weight.

There are physical buttons on the steering wheel, which rebels against the modern movement of digitising controls that often make them more complicated and harder to use.

There are still plenty of tech features, with a 15.6-inch digital driver display showing all the driving and vehicle dynamics information. This is paired with a 10.25 inch multimedia screen, which is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and an 8.8-inch passenger display that shows info such as G-Force and engine revs.

It is also fitted with plenty of active driver aids and safety systems.

There are a range of aerodynamic elements all over the Amalfi, which can improve down force or decrease drag.

An active rear wing has three settings that can prioritise low, medium or high downforce depending on the situation.

Ferrari has added a brake-by-wire system, which it says significantly improves the braking efficiency and reduces pedal travel.

This is paired with the advanced ABS Evo tech, which uses a range of sensors to precisely estimate the vehicle’s speed and the optimal slip for each wheel to help maximise braking force to each corner of the car.

It rides on 20-inch wheels with 245/35 rubber up front and fatter 285/35 units on the rear to aid grip.

There is no indication on price yet, but it is likely to hit the $500,000 mark Down Under considering the advancements over the Roma.
