Maserati / Ferrari Cambiocorsa F1 6-Speed Transaxle (Coupe – 3.73 diff) gear ratios

The Maserati / Ferrari Cambiocorsa F1 6-Speed Transaxle (Coupe – 3.73 diff) is a six-speed manual transaxle.

First gear is 3.29:1 and 6th is 0.85:1. Divide one by the other and the overall spread is 3.87:1. That is a middling spread for a six-speed: enough first gear to leave a junction without drama, and a top gear that is not only for motorways.

6th is an overdrive at 0.85:1: the output shaft turns faster than the input shaft. No gear is exactly 1.00:1, so there is no direct drive.

The biggest step is 1st to 2nd, where the ratio drops 34%. The smallest is 5th to 6th at 17%. On each upshift the revs drop by the same percentage as the ratio.

It is a transaxle, so the final drive sits in the same case: 3.73:1 as listed here. The speed table uses that figure and nothing else. With a 3.73 final drive and 225/45R17 tyres, 6th at 6,000 rpm works out at 226 km/h (141 mph), and first runs out at 58 km/h (36 mph). At 70 mph in 6th the engine turns about 2,990 rpm.
