The evolution of the 488 Challenge unveiled in 2016, the Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo was unveiled during the Finali Mondiali at Mugello in October 2019. Equipped with the new 2020 Evo kit derived from Ferrari’s track experience and feedback from the Challenge, GT3 and GTE competition series, the car’s overall performance, its consistency in race conditions and its handling are all enhanced, giving better feedback and even more driving pleasure.

Ferrari implemented many critical changes to deliver better performance through the latest evolution of the infamous 488 series, increasing downforce and introducing new, integrated Pirelli tyres to maximise grip, the latter of which required seven months of laboratory development and track testing. The Challenge Evo retains its 3.9 litre 670 hp V8 turbocharged engine, delivering the torque and power you expect from this exceptional racing car.

Intense collaboration between Ferrari’s technical department and their Style Centre resulted in a comprehensive redesign of the front of the car, boosting aerodynamic efficiency by 30% over the 488 Challenge. Most prominently, the inclusion of a third, centred, U-shaped intake feeds the front brakes and contributes to the unique sporty identity of the car. These comprehensive improvements, ensure the Challenge Evo has 50% more downforce than its predecessor, improving cornering with quicker entry and reduced understeer on exit. This provides an unparalleled driving experience, which was perfected after an intensive initial development phase using a sophisticated simulator. The 488 Challenge Evo introduces a first for the Challenge series, with teams now able to alter the level of downforce on the front axle independently of the rear axle. This change alone contributed more than 20% of the aerodynamic efficiency.

The racing spirit was embedded in the car’s interior starting with the steering wheel based on the experience Ferrari gained from the FXX-K Evo and the 488 GTE winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The most noticeable improvement was in the ergonomics, with the gear lever integration allowing drivers to keep their hands in the optimum position for considerable advantages for visibility and system control.

This fine model of the Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo is an exact 1:8 scale replica of the car as it debuted during the Ferrari Finali Mondiali at the Mugello Circuit in October 2019. It has been handcrafted and finished in our workshops using CAD directly from Ferrari’s design office, allowing us to perfectly recreate every detail at scale. The prototype model has undergone detailed scrutiny by Ferrari’s engineering and design teams to ensure complete accuracy of representation.

The Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo is limited to just 199 pieces.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
  • A PAYMENT AUTHORISATION FOR THE OUTSTANDING AMOUNT OF YOUR PURCHASE WILL BE HELD DURING THE FULL PLAN PERIOD as security. This hold will be charged ONLY in the event a monthly payment is declined (the authorisation hold might appear as "Pending" on your credit card bill).
  • You must maintain a sufficient "Required Available Credit" amount on your credit card for both the full outstanding amount of your purchase and the monthly payment during the full period of the plan.
  • Your credit card issuer may charge you interest on amounts charged to your credit card unless you pay Your credit card balance in full each month.
  • In case we do not manage to reauthorize the remaining amount of the transaction, you will receive a notice email. In that case, you will have to promptly update your credit card details. In case your bank still refuses to reauthorize the outstanding amount, we will have to charge the full outstanding amount of the transaction at once from your credit card.
Splitit offers you a flexible way of paying for items in instalments, completely interest-free, by reserving the available line of credit on your credit card. Then, each month, according to your payment plan, Splitit collects the instalment amount and reissues the authorisation request for the remaining balance.

It is important to note that payments are still charged on your existing credit card. Splitit simply provides you the method to do this and information about the instalments. Here is an example of how the service works for a customer buying a £2,000 model in 4 instalments of £500 each:

Splitit obtains authorisation from the credit card company for the full purchase amount of £2,000. This is not a charge on the card; it is simply reserving £2,000 from the customer’s line of credit.
- The credit card company then charges the customer £500 for the first payment.
- During the second month, Splitit requests authorisation for the outstanding purchase amount of £1,500, and charges the customer the second installment of £500.
- This authorisation and charge process continues until the full £2,000 is collected - in this case, for 4 months.
No, this is an interest-free payment method with no additional fixed fees, service fees, interest or hidden fees of any kind.
No, your item will be processed after the first initial instalment and delivered as normal upon passing our Quality Control check at Head Office.
- You can pay using Splitit with a valid Mastercard or Visa
Nothing, no credit check is required if you use a Splitit instalment plan and there is no impact on your credit score. All the bank sees is the individual instalment charges each month. If one of your payment authorisations is declined, there is still no affect on your credit rating; it is simply a declined charge. The denial would simply accelerate payment of the remaining balance (unless you provide a different card which was not denied).
You can pay using Splitit with a Mastercard or Visa. Debit cards, American Express and pre-paid cards are not accepted.
The instalments appear on your statement as individual charge items with the name of 'Amalgam Collection'. These payments will appear monthly according to your instalment plan, with the same charge amount each time.
