The aerodynamic profile of the Ferrari Amalfi is the result of a complex and carefully designed project, created in close collaboration between the Thermofluid Dynamics Department and the Ferrari Centro Stile design center. The process integrated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, wind tunnel testing, and design development into a collaborative process that led to the development of a design that is both captivating and functional.
The result is a body refined down to the smallest detail, with each element serving a precise function. These include aerodynamic fairings on the underbody in front of the front and rear wheels, which reduce drag and improve efficiency. A bypass duct above the headlights creates a connection between the front end and the engine compartment, helping to reduce pressure buildup and optimize cooling. Downforce generation at the front of the car is controlled by two vortex generators optimized in the wind tunnel and two diffusers integrated into the splitter, which also improves ventilation of the front brakes.
