Ferrari not believe in carbon - Enzo gets new V8

Unlike Mercedes, BMW and McLaren, Ferrari will not use carbon for its entire range. CEO Amedeo Felisa said the material that we know enough yet, especially in a period of twenty or thirty years. Ferrari wants to retain the guarantee that a Ferrari can recover after an accident or injury. Guarantee that no one can give a model with a carbon body. Read: limited editions or in carbon build them, this is for models with a 'big' production volume. First, gain knowledge of the material is, and then switch. The guys at Ferrari are smarter than we thought.

There is also some information leaked in connection with the Enzo. Which would be launched in 2012 and was a direct-injected twin turbo V8 under the hood get. There were earlier rumors that a six-cylinder engine under the hood would hide, but this is denied. Amedeo Felisa said that a cylinder could be built where customers need a smaller engine. As long as that demand is not there, so there is certainly no six-cylinder.

The V8, V10 and V12 era is certainly not yet closed chapter. On the contrary. Ferrari believes that its hybrid technology protects the V12 correct. Because it is a hybrid technique that can work together with developing a V10 or V12.
