Engineers in Maranello made sure they stay faithful to the elegance, sportiness, versatility and exclusivity that had distinguished each California model since the 1950s when they created the last in line. Innovation and a refreshed design are what define the newest generation while fun behind the wheel remains a priority.
Are all these reflected in the fresh jacket collection Ferrari is offering in their accessories line? Maybe, but if there’s one thing that reflects in the outwear that is the color. Men’s Ferrari California T leather jacket is available in both Dark Pigment and Mahogany, colors that you can order the actual car in too.
As you may well know, the T stands for turbo, which is a technology the Italians last used on a road car on the F40. We’re looking at a new 3.9-liter bi-turbo V8 that produces 560 horsepower at 7,500 rpm and 557 lbs-ft of torque at 4,750 rpm. The sportscar does the 0 to 62 mph (0 to 100 km/h) sprint in 3.6 seconds while the top speed limit is 196 mph (315 km/h). Does the jacket in question reflect all these?
“The unique features of the California T have inspired this men's Ferrari jacket, hand-made in Italy in soft sheepskin leather with an ergonomic nylon shape,” is how the Italian automaker is selling it.
Details such as the sleeve insert with trim, shaped like the sides of the latest Maranello Grand Tourer car, or the California T logo applied below the collar at the back make this article stand out in any petrolhead club.
No word about any influences concerning the new front fascia that was influenced by the F12, the revised rear and interior, though. Since we’re talking about new features, we may as well mention that the California T is the first car in which Ferrari has introduced the new Apple CarPlay functionality into its built-in infotainment system.
