What is the Ferrari Mondial?
The Mondial is a mid-engined Ferrari grand tourer with a V8 and seating for four in a 2+2 layout. It came as a coupé or cabriolet, with rear seats that made it a more practical shape than Ferrari’s two-seat V8 sports cars. Pininfarina designed its distinctive body.
Mondial generations
The Mondial QV ran from 1983 to 1985, followed by the Mondial 3.2 from 1986 to 1988 and the Mondial t from 1989 to 1993. Each carries the F108 type code. The QV brought a four-valve-per-cylinder V8, while the 3.2 brought a larger engine and restyled appearance. The Mondial t marked another major mechanical revision. Ferrari offered the cabriolet alongside the coupé during the QV era.

The US EPA listings include petrol engines ranging from 2.9 to 3.4 litres. The Mondial’s V8 evolved across its successive versions, and the final Mondial t brought a different engine arrangement. The model retained its mid-engined layout and four-seat grand-touring character.
