Mansory has introduced an upgraded Ferrari Portofino. This is the third Ferrari model that this company has upgraded this year.

The body of the Ferrari Portofino is made of lightweight forged carbon materials. The car has a new hood with better air intakes for better engine cooling, a new grille and a more discreet rear spoiler, all made of ultra-lightweight material, which give the car a better look.

The interior of Portofino is done in a comfortable sporty spirit. The seats are upholstered in fine black leather with yellow stitching as a contrast. A new gearbox with buttons in the colors of the Italian flag (green, white and red) has been installed. Mansory logos are embroidered on the carpet.

Under the hood is a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 720 hp and 656 lb-ft, which increases engine power by an additional 100 hp compared to the base model. The upgraded Portofino reaches 62 mph in 3 seconds with a top speed of 208 mph, which is 0.45 seconds faster than the standard Ferrari Portofino.

For this model, Mansory offers 21-22 inch tires with YT.5 rims, which is new in the offer of this tuner.
