The first Ferrari V8 four-seater, the GTC4Lusso T, arrives in Oman
Alfardan Motors, the official Ferrari dealer in Oman, hosted an exclusive action-packed driving experience for its clients at Muscat Bay. The event was designed to showcase the blistering performance and breath-taking agility of the Ferrari GTC4Lusso T. Like every engine born from the Maranello stable, the GTC4Lusso T’s V8 twin turbo has all the classic Ferrari power unit qualities: razor-sharp throttle response, award-winning performance, continuous and powerful acceleration at all speeds, an exhilarating soundtrack and compact dimensions. A low mounted chassis helps sharpen driving dynamics and bring the driver closer to the road. The GTC4Lusso T’s V8 twin turbo engine is the latest evolution to emerge from the engine family that was named the 2016 International Engine of the Year. Designed by Ferrari’s Styling Centre, the GTC4Lusso T maintains the same innovative take on the shooting brake coupé as the V12 version, reinterpreting the concept with an extremely streamlined, tapered shape that gives it an almost fastback-like silhouette.
