Whichever version you choose, power is sent to all four wheels through an eight - speed Tiptronic automatic
gearbox,
and while that shifts cleanly
and smoothly, the
engine can be a bit too noisy at times.
To achieve this remarkable feat Ferrari uses the E-Diff of the 599GTB
and the latest F - 1 TRAC, a sophisticated traction control system that controls all the resources of the car namely the
engine,
gearbox, brakes
and the fabulous electronically controlled rear differential that can redistribute up to 100 per cent of the power to
whichever wheel with the most traction to optimally utilise the grip of just the two rear tyres.
