New Ferrari restomod lets you take it off road in style and sheer power

The new Ferrari restomod is a real two-in-one, as it allows you to go off-road in style whilst maintaining power.

GlasWerks DMV brought a heavily modified Ferrari GTC4Lusso to this year’s SEMA show.

Called the Elevato, the grand tourer was equipped with a ton of gear and given a lift.

It looks the part of a rugged outdoorsy car, but it still maintains that effortlessly cool edge Ferrari is renowned for.

Taking a closer look at the Elevato – the Ferrari restomod you can take off-roading

According to the Virginia-based shop, 30 percent of the car’s original setup was replaced or reworked.

This included a billet aluminium upper and lower control arms, strengthened axles, and upgraded sway-bar end links, Robb Report reported.

The end result?

It boasts eight inches of ground clearance (the distance between the undercarriage and the ground), and nine inches of wheel travel (the vertical distance a wheel can move up and down as the vehicle’s suspension absorbs bumps).

Forgeline rims, 19 inches at the front and 20 inches in the rear, are tied up in all-terrain tires.

But it’s not just the body of the Ferrari restomod that has been attended to, as the 6.3-liter V12 has also been pumped up.

It can now produce 758hp, a huge increase on the previous 681hp.

And thanks to a seven-speed dual-clutch, that output goes to all four wheels.

If you’re off-roading, you’d probably need some extra light, right?

Well, this has you covered – the headlights are 30 percent brighter than before.

How much would this car cost you?

If you were interested in the Elevato, you’d have to put aside a hefty sum.

Prices would start at $175,000, but that doesn’t cover the cost of the donor GTC4Lusso.

The MSRP on such a car was roughly $300,000 for a V12 model back in 2020.

But Glaswerks DMV said it would help source the vehicle, which is handy.

We love seeing restomods get the appreciation they deserve.

Who would have thought this $100k masterpiece started life as a mere Mini Cooper?

Speaking of appearances being deceiving, there was this Rolls-Royce Corniche, which looked vintage but was actually hosting a 300-mile EV powertrain.

And who could forget this Porsche 904, which was taken to a whole new level by Aerfal Automotive?
