Under the hood of the 488 is a twin-turbocharged 3.9-liter V-8, producing a whopping 711 horsepower and 567 lb-ft of torque. A seven-speed automatic transmission handles operations by sending power to the vehicle’s rear wheels.  In track tests, it went from zero to 60 mph in just 2.7 seconds. This puts it on par with the McLaren 720S. However, the Lamborghini Huracán Evo is faster, completing the sprint in just 2.5 seconds.
