Video: Ferrari 2+2 spied testing in Fiorano


Ferrari’s upcoming 2+2 GT has been spotted once again by spy photographers and this time we have a video of it doing some laps at the carmaker’s Fiorano test track in Italy. Many have suggested the new 2+2 will be positioned below the F430 but new reports claim the car will be bigger and feature a more powerful 4.7L V8 engine.

It’s hard to gauge what the new model will look like given the heavy camouflage, but expect to see a traditional long bonnet and generous GT proportions. Onlookers claim the car is closer in size to the 612 Scaglietti rather than the F430, which coincides with previous reports claiming the car will be a genuine 2+2 and will also sport a folding hard topped roof designed and assembled by Pininfarina.

Other speculated details include a 500hp output, direct-injection technology, and even a new dual-clutch gearbox. The new 2+2 GT will almost certainly forgo the rumored ‘Dino’ title and will likely be called the GT California instead – a name that Ferrari has already registered.

The car is scheduled to make its world debut at the Paris Motor Show in October.
