Ferrari 599XX Evolution

Ferrari has announced an Evolution package for its track-only 599XX, and it promises to deliver both performance and handling improvements.

Thanks to the fitment of side-exiting exhausts, power has risen by 19 bhp (14 kW / 20 PS) to 739 bhp (551 kW / 750 PS), while peak torque is up to 700 Nm (516 lb/ft). The other main change to the drivetrain is a shorter final gear ratio for superior acceleration.



But key to the Evolution upgrade is its active aerodynamics. The new Formula One-inspired rear wing comprises two separate elements, and these can rotate electronically to optimise downforce.



Integration with the 599XX’s ESP, ABS, SCM and F1-Trac electronic systems means that the wing adjustment is done automatically based on speed, steering wheel angle and both lateral and longitudinal acceleration. Complementing the rear wing are a redesigned, larger rear diffuser and a modified front splitter.



Finishing touches include new Pirelli tyres, and an overall weight reduction of 35 kg (77 lbs).
