There are icons in automotive history that transcend their era. The Ferrari F355 is one of them — a 1990s masterpiece that distilled everything enthusiasts adored about mid-engine Italian performance: balance, sound, delicacy, and drama.
Now, decades later, that legend returns — sharper, lighter, more focused — in the form of the 355 by Evoluto.
This is not restoration.
This is reinvention.
A Modern Interpretation of a 90s Icon
Created by British engineering atelier Evoluto Automobili, the 355 by Evoluto is a meticulously engineered restomod that reimagines the original F355 for the modern era while preserving its analogue soul.
Limited to just 55 individually commissioned examples worldwide, each car begins with an original donor chassis and undergoes a complete transformation — structurally, mechanically, and aesthetically. The philosophy is simple yet ambitious: enhance everything, compromise nothing.
The silhouette remains unmistakably F355 — low, sculpted, perfectly proportioned. But beneath the familiar lines lies a thoroughly reengineered machine.
Lightweight Engineering, Elevated Performance
At the heart of the 355 by Evoluto is a comprehensively rebuilt 3.5-litre naturally aspirated V8. Reworked with modern precision engineering, upgraded internal components, bespoke engine management, and a freer-flowing exhaust system, output rises to approximately 420 horsepower.
The result is not brute force — it is sharpened character.
Throttle response becomes more immediate.
Power delivery more linear.
The soundtrack — even more intoxicating.
Structural reinforcements and carbon composite integration increase torsional rigidity while reducing weight. Suspension geometry has been recalibrated for precision, complemented by modern damping systems that preserve feedback while improving composure at speed.
Steering feel remains pure and hydraulic — beautifully communicative, free from digital interference. A gated manual transmission ensures that engagement is never diluted. This is driving as conversation, not automation.

Design: Respectful Yet Refined
Visually, the 355 by Evoluto remains faithful to the proportions that made the F355 timeless. Yet subtle enhancements elevate its presence.
Carbon fibre body panels reduce mass while sharpening surface definition. Aerodynamic refinements are integrated seamlessly rather than aggressively imposed. The stance is wider, more planted — confident without arrogance.
The result is a car that feels contemporary without abandoning its heritage.
Inside, the cabin is completely reimagined through bespoke craftsmanship. Premium leathers, precision-machined metal components, and tailored finishes create an environment that blends classic Ferrari DNA with modern luxury standards.
Every commission is unique. Clients collaborate directly with the Evoluto team to specify materials, finishes, colorways, and personal details — transforming each vehicle into a singular automotive expression.
The Art of the Analogue
In an era defined by hybridization and software-controlled performance, the 355 by Evoluto offers something increasingly rare: purity.
No oversized screens, artificial sound enhancement or digital filters between driver and machine.
Instead, there is balance. Mechanical honesty. Emotional clarity.
It is a car for collectors who value experience over acceleration figures — who understand that driving pleasure is measured not only in speed, but in sensation.
Exclusivity with Intent
Production is strictly limited to 55 commissions worldwide, ensuring rarity at the highest level of collector desirability. Each car is built to order, requiring extensive engineering and craftsmanship hours before delivery.

A New Chapter for a Timeless Machine
The 355 by Evoluto does not attempt to replace the original Ferrari F355. Instead, it celebrates it — refining its brilliance through modern engineering while preserving its emotional core.
It is what happens when nostalgia meets technical mastery.
When heritage meets innovation.
When driving remains an art.
For those who believe the golden age of analogue performance never truly ended — this may be its most compelling evolution yet.
