It is an accepted fact that Ferrari has some of the best engines in the world, and now it has the awards to prove it.
The Italian automaker received a record number of awards at the International Engine of the Year Award ceremony, including the overall winner with its twin-turbo V8 used in the 488 GTB, 488 Spider and with a slightly different displacement, the California T. The same engine also won the Performance Engine and New Engine categories, as well as the 3.0-liter to 4.0-liter displacement category.
Claiming the award for the above 4.0-liter category is Ferrari’s naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V12 engine found in the F12berlinetta and F12tdf models.
