2.15 s to 100 km/h on Ferrari's sheet, 1.96 s in Quattroruote's test. 1,200 cv from a V6 and three electric motors, in 799 cars.

Ferrari claims the F80 reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.15 s claimed and 200 km/h (124 mph) in 5.75 s claimed, with a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph) claimed (Ferrari). It publishes no 0-60 mph or quarter-mile time. Our race scales the 0-100 figure to 2.08 s converted to 60 mph and estimates the quarter at 9.00 s at 157 mph estimate.
The first independent test, published by Quattroruote on October 1, 2026, set a record lap of 1:17.179 recorded on its VairanoPro circuit, 2.7 s quicker than a Porsche 911 GT3 RS derived (Quattroruote). MotorBox, reporting the paywalled test data, lists 1.96 s to 100 km/h, 5.3 s to 200 km/h and 8.8 s over 400 meters reported (MotorBox). No U.S. outlet has published an instrumented 0-60 or quarter mile. Power is 1,200 cv, about 1,184 hp claimed, and Ferrari builds 799 claimed at a base price of €3.6 million reported (Reuters).
Ferrari places the F80 in a line of "legendary supercars" that runs from the 1984 GTO through the F40, F50, Enzo and the 2016 LaFerrari Aperta, and says each borrowed its powertrain from the racing of its day (Ferrari). This one takes its V6 from the 499P that won Le Mans and its electric motor ideas from Formula 1.
It was revealed at Maranello on October 17, 2024. The cabin is what Ferrari calls a "1+": the passenger seat sits farther back than the driver's so the car can be narrower, and the canopy is 50 mm lower than LaFerrari's.

Every figure carries its label. claimed means Ferrari said it, without a published timed run. recorded means timed on an actual run: an instrumented test, a certified or verified record run, or a maker's own pass on a drag strip's timing system. reported is press we couldn't trace all the way to a primary source. derived is our math. converted is a 0-100 km/h claim converted to 0-60 mph. Here's how we label numbers.
Each bar fills at the real speed of that car's 0-60 time, from the race's lineup. The F80's 2.08 s is Ferrari's 0-100 km/h claim scaled to 60 mph. The extra F80 bar is Quattroruote's time to 100 km/h, which is 62 mph, so it runs a little farther than the others.
Ferrari's sheet says 2.15 s to 100 km/h and 5.75 s to 200 km/h. Quattroruote's figures, as MotorBox published them, beat both: 1.96 s and 5.3 s, then 12.9 s to 300 km/h reported. Neither Ferrari nor the free coverage of the test says whether the clock started at first movement or after a foot of rollout, the American drag-strip habit that trims about a tenth or more from a time.
The one figure the test didn't beat was braking: Ferrari claims 28 m from 100 km/h, and Quattroruote stopped in 31.9 m reported. Our race uses the more cautious number, Ferrari's claim scaled to 60 mph converted, as the methodology guide explains.
The 2,992 cc 120-degree V6, coded F163CF, makes 900 cv at 8,750 rpm and 850 Nm at 5,500 rpm, and revs to 9,000 rpm. Ferrari calls its 300 cv per liter the highest specific output of any Ferrari engine. Each turbo has an electric motor between the turbine and compressor, a first for Ferrari, to spin it up before exhaust gas can (Ferrari).
Two 105 kW motors drive the front wheels with torque vectoring, and an MGU-K at the rear adds up to 60 kW and recovers up to 70 kW. They draw on a 2.28 kWh, 800-volt battery that weighs 39.3 kg and peaks at 242 kW. There is no electric-only mode: Ferrari decided driving silently didn't fit the car.

The designers wanted to avoid a face, so the headlights sit inside a black visor that does both lighting and aerodynamic work.
Air from under the nose turns up through the hood. That upwash creates low pressure under the car worth 150 of the front's 460 kg, so the suspension has to hold the ride height steady.
Two outboard radiators sit between the floor and the headlights and a third in the center feeds off the front wing's upwash. Their hot air leaves through the wheel arches, and the slot ahead of the wheel helps steer the wheel's wake.
A 48-volt motor at each corner, inboard dampers and 3D-printed upper wishbones, a first for a Ferrari road car. There is no anti-roll bar. The system keeps the car flat on track and soaks up bumps on the road.
As on LaFerrari, the doors swing up on a two-axis hinge to almost 90 degrees. Their carbon structure also absorbs side impacts. The panel ahead of the door stands proud as a nod to the F40.
The channel along the door feeds an intake that splits the air between the engine, which gains up to 5 cv from ram effect, and the intercooler and rear brakes.
It moves up and changes angle continuously. In its high-downforce setting it makes over 180 kg at 250 km/h; a flap under the front wing stalls the floor on straights, much like DRS in Formula 1.
CCM-R Plus carbon-ceramic discs developed with Brembo, 408 mm front and 390 mm rear. Michelin Pilot Sport Cup2 or Cup2R tires, 285/30 R20 front and 345/30 R21 rear.
Nobody has published a timed quarter mile with a trap speed for the F80, and Ferrari doesn't quote one. The nearest number is Quattroruote's 8.8 s over 400 meters, about 2.3 meters short of a quarter mile reported. At that point the car is moving fast enough that the missing distance adds only a few hundredths derived. It then reached the kilometer in 16.2 s at 317 km/h (197 mph) reported (MotorBox).
Our race uses a more cautious 9.00 s at 157 mph estimate, which puts it level with the McLaren W1 and behind the Dodge Demon 170's 8.91 s, timed on Dodge's own pass.
Ferrari's own number is 1:15.3 around Fiorano, its test track next to the factory, the quickest of any Ferrari road car there and 4.4 s ahead of LaFerrari claimed (Motor1). The independent number is Quattroruote's 1:17.179 on VairanoPro, the long layout it added in 2020 for exactly this kind of car. The F80 also took the short handling circuit's record, 1:05.501, from the Pagani Huayra Roadster BC's 1:07.681 set in 2020 recorded.

Reviewers agreed on the driving and argued about the sound. These are opinions, quoted with links.
"Simply put, it's safe to say that it drives better than anything I've ever experienced."Jonny Lieberman, Robb Report, August 2025
Top Gear's verdict, in Jethro Bovingdon's words, was "bloody fantastic."
"The wild thing is that, from the driver's seat, the F80 feels straightforward and approachable."Car and Driver, first drive, July 2025
That was Ferrari's stated aim: a track car "just as driveable as a production range model."
"To me, the F80's engine sounds much like the V-6 in the lesser 296 GTB."Brian Silvestro, Motor1, October 2024
Top Gear disagreed once it drove the car: "The F80 is deep, angry and has a might and authenticity about it that makes all that V12 lament seem a bit silly" (Top Gear).
"We kept the number as low as possible, considering the amount of requests that we are having… they are all sold out."Enrico Galliera, Ferrari, to CarExpert
He said the 799 figure was set against LaFerrari's 499 and the number of collectors Ferrari now has.
The consensus: nobody who has driven it doubts the performance, and the one independent test went faster than Ferrari's own numbers. The arguments are about the V6 replacing a V12, a sound Ferrari has since offered to free up with a track exhaust, and a car almost nobody could buy.

The launch release says 1,000 kg of downforce at 250 km/h, yet its front and rear figures, 460 and 590 kg, add up to 1,050 kg, the number on Ferrari's model page derived.
The SF90 and 296 have an eDrive mode. The F80 doesn't, because Ferrari judged silent running out of keeping with the car.
Boost Optimization records a reconnaissance lap, then spends electric boost where the track needs it most, a first in the industry by Ferrari's account.
The six slots in the engine cover spine match the V6's six cylinders.
The seats are staggered so the cabin can be narrower. The passenger seat is fixed to save weight; only the driver's adjusts.
Titanium screws and a lighter block mean the V6 weighs no more than the 296 GTB's, despite the extra 237 cv claimed, or about 234 hp derived.
Ferrari claims 28 m from 100 km/h. Quattroruote measured 31.9 m, though its peak deceleration was close to 1.96 g reported.
The new, smaller steering wheel brings back buttons you can find by touch, replacing the all-touch layout of recent Ferraris, and Ferrari says it will spread to other models.
Ferrari said requests ran at three times the 799 planned, and every car was assigned to a client before the public saw it.
In our quarter-mile model the F80 finishes 11th of 21 on its 9.00 s estimate. The Formula E car and the McLaren W1 are estimated at 9.00 s too, so the three share a time. The car just ahead and the car just behind:

Ferrari doesn't publish a 0-60 mph time. It claims 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.15 seconds, which scales to about 2.08 seconds at 60 mph, the figure our race uses. Quattroruote's October 2026 test reportedly reached 100 km/h in 1.96 seconds. No U.S. outlet has published an instrumented 0-60 run.
Ferrari hasn't published one, and nobody has published a timed quarter mile with a trap speed. Quattroruote's test reportedly covered 400 meters, about 2.3 meters short of a quarter mile, in 8.8 seconds. Our race estimates 9.00 seconds at 157 mph.
Ferrari claims 1,200 cv combined, about 1,184 hp. The 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 makes 900 cv at 8,750 rpm and 850 Nm of torque, and three electric motors add 300 cv: two on the front axle and one at the rear.
Ferrari is building 799. Reuters reported a base price of 3.6 million euros, about $3.9 million, and Ferrari said every car was assigned to a client before the reveal, with requests at three times the planned output. Deliveries began in late 2025, and production is expected to run until late 2027.
Ferrari claims 350 km/h (217 mph), and Quattroruote reportedly measured 350.4 km/h. Ferrari's figure for its Fiorano test track is 1:15.3, 4.4 seconds quicker than LaFerrari. Quattroruote's 1:17.179 on its VairanoPro circuit is the quickest lap the magazine has recorded there.
Ferrari's supercars follow its racing engines. The GTO and F40 used turbo V8s because Formula 1 cars did in the 1980s, and today Formula 1 and Ferrari's Le Mans-winning 499P use turbo V6 hybrids. The F80's V6 shares its architecture and crankcase with the 499P's engine.
Labels. Claimed: Ferrari or another maker said it, without a published timed run. Recorded: timed on an actual run: an instrumented test, a certified or verified record run, or a maker's own pass on a drag strip's timing system; here Quattroruote's lap times, read on its own site, and the Chevrolet and Dodge passes in the quarter-mile chart. Reported: press reporting we couldn't trace all the way to a primary source; Quattroruote's acceleration, speed and braking figures sit behind its paywall, so we cite MotorBox's account of them. Converted: a 0-100 km/h claim converted to 0-60 mph. Derived: our math. Estimate: modeled for our race because no published figure exists. Both are explained in the methodology guide. Race figures come from the lineup in our quarter-mile simulator; the F80's 2.08 s is Ferrari's 2.15 s 0-100 km/h claim scaled to 60 mph (96.6 km/h), and its 9.00 s at 157 mph is our estimate. Ferrari quotes power in cv (metric horsepower); 1,200 cv is about 883 kW or 1,184 hp. Two sources disagree on downforce, 1,000 kg in the launch release and 1,050 kg on the model page, and Quattroruote's article also says 1,050 kg. Every car is listed on the all-cars page.
