The new Ferrari F80 is the most expensive new car Ferrari has ever built, despite having only six cylinders.

Priced at over 3.5 million euros (or 3.8 million US dollars), the Ferrari F80 is not just one of the most expensive cars on the market, but also one of the most powerful.

With its 3-liter V6 engine and a total output of 1,200 horsepower, this hypercar sets new standards for speed and performance.

Although the model has only just been presented, all 799 examples have already been sold, according to Boosted.

For the rich and famous hoping to get their hands on one, there is no guarantee of securing a place behind the wheel—Ferrari itself has handpicked who will be allowed to own an F80.

The Ferrari F80 is the fastest street car Ferrari has ever produced, taking four years to develop. The F80 joins a series of exclusive cars that Ferrari only expands every decade.

This tradition began with the 288 GTO in 1984, followed by the F40, F50, Enzo, and most recently, the LaFerrari in 2013. Now, the F80 takes over as the crown jewel of Ferrari's model range.

The car is powered by a 3-liter V6 hybrid engine that works in tandem with two electric motors. Together, this setup produces 1,200 horsepower, making the F80 Ferrari's most powerful street car in history.

But it's not just the car's acceleration that impresses.

The F80 can decelerate from 100 km/h to a standstill in just 28 meters, and at a speed of 200 km/h, it takes 98 meters to stop completely. This demonstrates that Ferrari focuses not only on speed but also on safety.

Ferrari is confident in its customers driving the car, as the 7-year free service package, which has been included with every Ferrari for several years, also applies to the new F80. The car has a service interval of 20,000 kilometers or one year, whichever comes first.
