The design of the GTC4 Lusso has divided opinions. Its not the most proportionate for a sports coupe and the car looks rather bland. The front has a very simple bumper and the air intakes in the bumper along with the signature Ferrari headlamps look as if the car is uncannily smiling at you. The side profile too is not the greatest with a long bonnet and a very short rear overhang. It has some relief from the air slits on the front fender.
It is at the rear of the car where it really starts to look like a serious machine with a large diffuser, quad exhausts and muscular rear haunches. Honestly, for such a sporty car, we would have liked some more visual drama.
