Ferrari Roma Luxury Italian Car Review

Some cars are so beautifully crafted they are like rolling works of art that stir emotions. The Ferrari Roma is precisely such a vehicle. This sport car successfully encompasses the luxury of “La Dolce Vita,” the quality of life that has made Italy famous, but with 21st-century opulence. The Roma’s wings appear more sculptural as they fold and unfold from the body, recalling grand tourers from the 1950s as opposed to taking an aggressive stance like most Ferraris do today. If you are one of the individuals who crave sophisticated design, exhilarating performance, and the exclusivity that only a premium car with the much-coveted badge from Maranello can provide, this detailed review will impress you. Let’s find out all the things about this wonderful model and why it’s the best companion to enjoy the luxurious, sun-filled Dubai lifestyle.

Exterior Design

With a sleek shape and flowing lines, the exterior design of the Ferrari Roma is perfectly balanced. The car has been designed with purpose, and it looks quite confident. Although many modern Ferraris look aggressive, this one appears sophisticatedly powerful. The auto’s appearance is attractive, with a long, shark-nosed bonnet and a sweeping fastback silhouette, making it look like an athlete. The Roma's front-end features a grille that seems to have emerged naturally from the bodywork. Full-LED adaptive headlights endow the car with piercing eyes.

The body is a sculpture, with smooth, muscular flanks, devoid of anything superfluous that might interfere with its pure and clean lines. Every curve has been thought through, from the muscular rear haunches, which suggest performance, to the active rear spoiler that is seamlessly integrated within the rear screen until it is called into action. Minimalism at its best.

Because of its large dimensions and low center of gravity, the Roma enjoys a stable and agile presence on the road, hinting at more athletic moves concealed under its skin.

Interior Sophistication

Stepping inside the Roma feels like entering an advanced Italian cabin that looks amazing. Ferrari has introduced a “Dual Cockpit” concept, which is a symmetrical architecture that forms two distinctive, wrap-around spaces for the driver and the front passenger, divided by a high central console. The experience for your passenger is that they are like a co-pilot, rather than just a passenger.

The materials used are of the absolute highest quality. You can select Frau® leather, Alcantara®, carbon fiber, and aluminum to personalize a lot of the interior of the car so that it can be bespoke.

  • The 16-inch all-digital instrument cluster greets the driver. This HD display is highly configurable, allowing the driver to prioritize information such as the rev counter, navigation, or media.
  • Haptic touch controls are used for many functions, including those on its multi-function steering wheel. They are implemented through capacitive switches with haptic functions, which avoids mechanical switches, giving it a modern and neater look.
  • A touchscreen that is 8.4 inches in size is featured in the center of the dashboard for infotainment and climate controls.
  • The optional 8.8-inch touchscreen passenger display sits on the passenger side and allows passengers to access navigation, media, and performance data.

The design is a success in its elegant blending of high-end luxury and focused sportiness, encapsulating the best of contemporary Italy.

Engine Specs

This front engined car has a strong and award-winning engine at its heart. The Ferrari Roma sports a 3.9-litre, twin-turbo V8 engine from the family that has earned the International Engine of the Year award for four years running. This powerful engine was designed for the highest performance while also exhibiting high responsiveness with barely any turbo lag.

Ferrari deliberately engineered the sound of the engine to provide a great sensory experience. The exhaust has been tuned to create a deep, evocative sound that rises from a tuneful rumble at low revs to a scream just before the redline. Ferrari has created an engineering jewel of a car that produces incredible power yet remains surprisingly drivable.

  • Digital Interface: The notion of keeping your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel is brought to life seamlessly. The driver is able to operate nearly every feature from the haptic touch controls on the steering wheel without taking their hands off, further supported by the 16-inch digital driver’s display.
  • Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS): The vehicle comes equipped with a full range of ADAS, including Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Detection, and Lane Departure Warning, which enhance safety on everyday drives.
  • Manettino Dial: The iconic five-position Manettino dial on the steering wheel instantly switches driving modes from Wet to Comfort, Sport, Race, and ESC-Off.
  • Side Slip Control (SSC 6.0): This vehicle dynamics control system makes the car safer at the limit and its high performance easier to control.
  • Active Aerodynamics: The vehicle boasts a unique retractable spoiler which forms part of the rear screen and activates in response to the vehicle’s speed.

The Ferrari Roma occupies a space mostly associated with history’s great grand tourers and sports car models.

ModelEngine0-100Rental Price
Ferrari Roma3.9L V8 / 620 PS3.41500 AED
Bentley Bentayga4.0L V8 / 550 PS4.51350 AED
Porsche 911 Turbo3.8L Twin-Turbo F6 / 580 PS2.81400 AED
BMW XM4.4L V8 Hybrid / 653 PS4.31000 AED

The Aston Martin DB12 offers traditional British elegance with a powerful V8, but the Roma seems sharper, more nimble, and more technologically advanced. The sure-footed, all-wheel-drive Porsche 911 Turbo is so usable you could drive it every day, but it feels a little less special than the Ferrari. The McLaren GT focuses on being lightweight, while the Ferrari Roma feels like a comfy GT car. The Roma's stunning design, high performance, and new technology enable Ferrari to enrich its DNA and offer sparkling performance, while still standing out with a stylistic view on good taste. This is a genuine Italian GT for the modern day.

Conclusion

The Ferrari Roma is definitely a great car. This car successfully embodies the heritage of Ferrari beautifully and elegantly. More than just a powerful sport car, it’s an ode to ‘La Dolce Vita’ and a manifestation of Italian engineering and design. With considerable sporting capability yet also being chic and practical, it is an appealing proposition. To rent Ferrari Roma in Dubai will make your trip something special every time. It’s a car made for a city that’s a striking and beautiful reality just like the Roma: steeped in tradition, yet predisposed towards the future.
