The F80 is essentially a hybrid powertrain, and Ferrari's motorsports experience in Formula 1 and the WEC is evident throughout the powertrain.

Twin-turbocharged engine, three electric motors and an 860V high-voltage battery with a capacity of 2.28 kWh, with the V6 twin-turbocharged engine producing 900 hp and the two electric motors located on the front axle and the rear motor adding 300 hp for a total system output of 1,200 hp, which gives the car a 0-60 mph acceleration of just 2.15 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph.

Ferrari has equipped the F80 with the F163CF engine, the latest iteration of the F163 engine.

With a displacement of 2,992 cc and twin turbos, this engine has a peak output of 900 hp, the highest output per liter of any Ferrari production car in history at 300 hp. The F163CF engine shares much of the same architecture as the F163 engine in Ferrari's LMH racecar, the 499P, which has won back-to-back Le Mans 24 Hours, including the engine block, crankcase, timing system and fuel system, and has race-ready specs thanks to a number of motorsport-derived technologies.

The F80 has a carbon monocoque body made using a prepreg process.

The tubes and roof that make up the door sills are also made of carbon fiber, using the dual tubular bladders method, which originated in Formula 1, and Rohacell and Nomex sandwich panels with a carbon fiber interior. Like the LaFerrari, it has butterfly doors, but with a dual pivoting axis hinge mechanism that opens the doors at a near-vertical angle. The door's undercarriage has a shock-absorbing structure in the event of a side impact and is made of special high-performance carbon fiber.

However,

despite being at the top of the lineup, some have criticized the use of the 3.0L 6-cylinder hybrid turbocharged engine from Ferrari's current entry-level model, the 296 GTB. Of course, the F163 engine is considered Ferrari's masterpiece engine, and the F80 is the culmination of all of Ferrari's technology based on the hard work of the 499Pin the WEC Le Mans Hypercar class, so it should perform well, but there are many people who don't like the fact that Ferrari's iconic engine is not the 6L-class 12-cylinder naturally aspirated enginethat its predecessors in this class have, but a fairly humble engine with half the displacement and number of cylinders.
