Ferrari Mondial Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1980–1993) — First Generation
The first-generation Ferrari Mondial is a mid-engined grand tourer offered as a Coupe and a Cabrio, combining Ferrari character with rear seats and a degree of everyday practicality unusual among exotic cars.
The Ferrari Mondial engine choices include mid-mounted gasoline V8s driving the rear wheels through a manual transmission. Examples include the 2.9 MT Cabrio and the 3.2 MT in both Cabrio and Coupe form, where the larger engine brings stronger mid-range pull, reducing the need to change down when accelerating.
