Frank Stephenson, renowned automotive designer, recently shared his candid thoughts on the new Ferrari Amalfi—the anticipated replacement for the Ferrari Roma. In a discussion with Top Gear, Frank did not hold back. He acknowledged Ferrari’s technical excellence but questioned whether the new model truly ignites the passion that the brand is famous for.
Frank Stephenson’s Honest Opinion
Stephenson explained, “the emotional spark feels missing here,” highlighting the Amalfi’s sleek yet somewhat detached design. He believes Ferrari excels at engineering but needs to focus more on recapturing the visceral excitement their cars once inspired. According to Frank, the new Amalfi feels more like a technical exercise than an emotional statement.
Ferrari’s Path Forward
As Ferrari fans eagerly await the Amalfi’s launch, Stephenson’s comments have sparked debate in the auto world. Will Ferrari respond by putting more heart into future designs? Only time will tell, but one thing is clear: emotional connection is as important as performance for car lovers.
