New Ferrari F250 (project name)

[Tvetovnato]

[...] But I and many with me have a big problem with the Ferrari designs since they brought the design in house.

Many have problems about it but also many are loving it, so not a big deal.

Let’s hope they come back to a simple, sleek design that is looking like a Ferrari, which we haven’t had since Pininfarina left the house.

Also, I just want to let you know that LaFerrari was NOT designed by Pininfarina.
Maybe now you're going to say that even LaFerrari has an ugly design...

It was not, but the design language was directly derived from the 488, which was derived from the 458, one of the most beautiful modern cars created.

Weight seems to be a bit high, no? 125kg more for 70hp less that the Mclaren W1..

No one will know what these things really weight, until someone puts them on a scale.

for people who go on and on about bringing back pininfarina etc etc.. like come on be real. 499p is like on of the best looking car ever made to my eyes. 296 is amazing as well.. now on to topic I personally not the big fan on that front black bar, but color aside car looks amazing, especially from 3/4th top view.

Also, they are now making 799 of them, looks like demand is high?

Ferrari has a 3.0L V6, Mclaren a 4.0L V8; if Ferrari had the same ICE, it would have pumping in the range of 1150-1200hp from the ICE alone.

Its giving me this vibe the more I look at it

I'm sure everyone is gonna like this.

Fantastic technology, what a car.

However, how are they able to realize an output of 242 kW from a battery with 2.3 kWh??

That is a C rate of >100, at least in discharge. And for regenerative braking, certainly they want triple digit power too.
Do they integrate supercaps?

Can the mods rename this thread?

According to top gear site, this car is 4 seconds faster than LaFerrari around Fiorano

And the fastest overall road production car.

Does the 800v architecture help with that?

It sure helps with recharge speed and heat management.

800v architecture would be the equivalent of running huge water pipes, so they can carry lots of water (current) with minimal heat development. Like 240v in europe allows for more electricity with less heat on the cables compared to the 110 in the US.

Also this just came out:



Looks like this is the first roadcar of this level that doesn’t derate the battery after a few laps.

car has grown on me in terms of looks, in many of the shots this car looks like a spaceship, especially in all black
