Ferrari has unveiled the new Ferrari 430 Scuderia before its official unveiling this September at the Frankfurt Motor Show. This lightweight version of Ferrari’s F430 lineup weighs 100kg less than the F430.

The Ferrari 430 Scuderia is powered by a 4.3L V8 that puts out 510 horsepower at 8,500 rpm and has a curb weight of just 1,250kg. That means the car has a very low weight-to-power ratio of just 2.45 kg per horsepower.

The new version will also have a new exhaust system, a new traction control system and an upgrade to the Superfast F1 gearbox software that reduces gear change times to just 60 milliseconds!

The 430 Scuderia will be unveiled by Michael Schumacher on September 11.
