They all very much filled the same spot, maybe not officially.

V12 rear engine F1 inspired?

Since when did F40 have a V12?

F40 = V8 TwinTurbo
F50 = V12 NA

Well ok I was wrong, but they still fill the exact same spot in the line up is my point.

That almost looks like a Ferrari Enzo with Pininfarina P4/5 bodykit

The new car, codenamed in the Ferrari headquarters as the F150, with artist rendering of what the new car may look like:



New Ferrari Enzo: full details | Autocar

Article details:

Car debut in Spring 2013.

The F150 is based around a compact central carbonfibre monocoque weighing just 70kg (20 per cent lighter than an Enzo’s). It is powered by a V12 engine and backed up by a small electric motor and lithium ion battery packs.

Although the F150 will not be able to travel solely on electric power, Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa says that the Hy-KERS hybrid system will give the F150 a “performance boost, knocking 10 per cent off the car’s 0-125mph sprint time.

Yeah, the F150 name is lame for this supercar. The Ferrari executives should think of a better name.

What about "Ferrari Forza"?

[dhari]

I think they will call it something different because I think they were using the F60 name when the Enzo was being showcased to potential owners.

Sidenote: the 'souped up' 458 Italia will be called 459 Monte Carlo. I can't wait for that one either!

[sonick]

Once and for all; like how the Enzo was the F140, the F150 is Ferrari's internal code name for this Ferrari, so stop pointing it out.

[dhari]

I wonder if they will actually call it the F150?

Also it was referring to a totally different car; the F1 car not this one.

[Shafto]

I just read today in my new Car and Driver that the name will most likely be F70

[mac25]

so the v12 is in the back, the passenger is in the middle, the electric motor/ motors are in the front... where does the battery go? it's not like there's a lot of real estate in a farrari to begin with.

or am i missing something here?

[Jgresch]

The roof.
