Exterior
Externally, the new 2018/2019 Ferrari Portofino resembles its predecessor California T, although the exterior design here is completely different. The supercar retained the long hood with the cabin pushed back, air intakes in the hood and on the side fenders, muscular rear arches, typical lighting technology, and a folding hard roof from Webasto. It is built for everyday commuting while easily transforming from a classic Berlinetta into an open car, allowing you to enjoy the unique voice of the engine.
Interior
The interior of the new Portofino convertible has been designed according to the wishes of various customers. The rear seats have increased legroom and the infotainment system is more advanced and easier to use. The 10.2-inch center console display features Apple CarPlay. Plus, an LCD screen for the front passenger appeared on the lid of the glove box, and sports seats with electric adjustments in 18 directions are already installed as standard. The air conditioning system has also been improved and is now 25% faster and 50% quieter than the California.
The company notes that with the roof down in the 2019/2020 Portofino cabin, it became 30% quieter than in its predecessor, and due to the other backs of the front seats, it was possible to carve out a little extra space for the knees of the second row because the car has a 2 + 2 landing formula.
