Prepare Yourselves: A Load Of Ferrari Hybrids Are Coming

Ferrari CEO Sergio Marchionne has indicated that much of the company's cars will go hybrid in the near future
Prepare Yourselves: A Load Of Ferrari Hybrids Are Coming

As expected, the LaFerrari hypercar was not a hybrid one-off for Maranello. Not by a long shot.

According to Autocar, CEO Sergio Marchionne spoke of Ferrari’s hybrid future at a recent conference call with investors. The company plans to supplement internal combustion engines with electric power, with the obvious aim of increasing performance while lowering emissions. Does that mean the incredible Ferrari V12 will be around for a little longer? We can but hope.

It’s anticipated that whatever replaces the F12 will be the first ‘mainstream’ Ferrari to receive a little dose of electric power, and if the rumours are true, it’ll be built using an all-new hybrid architecture that’ll underpin most - if not all - future models at Maranello.

So ferrari needs to reduce overall co2 emissios to stay in business right? So why not make a cheap, low co2 “sacrificial model” ferrari? They would sell lots off them to posers who just want a ferrari badge and leave the other models for the true entusiasts.

So a repeat of the Aston Martin Cygnet? If it were me, I’d buy one in the hope that it sells so poorly that it starts becoming a collectable and gains value.

More like a dino style car, maybe a rebadge alfa 4c hybrid or a hybrid gt car, but it would have to be cheaper than the california.

At this point anything goes. With the recent hypercars this wasn’t really a big shock to me.
Don’t Ground me for that pun.
I conducted the sentence properly.
This will spark quite a controversy.
What am I doing with my life.

To be honest, I’d rather they keep the naturally aspirated V12 and supplement it with electricity than go full turbo-V6 and V8…
Yes, cars gonna be heavier this way, but the sound and feel is going to stay

And with that every supercar becomes hybrid… The engines become smaller… Our era is the last for true sport cars… The future is eco and dark
