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.

Nice.
Pretty ‘shocking’
.
Look, Trump’s managed to win: nothing can possibly be more shocking than that.
Definitely….God knows what the world will come to now…
and the grinch might as well steal christmas
A mustang leaving a car meet and not crashing would be more shocking
Ferrari had fire problems before the use of hybrid technology, now what might happen
Baby Laferraris? I’m fine with that
Well I giess goodbye N/A V12s
Still got lambos
And I thought downsizing was bad . . .
If they go hybrid the same way they did with the LaFerrari, i’m Fine with that.
What if they would make a modern day Colombo style V12 with hybrid power?
I would be okay with that.
Woah
We probably need to say goodbye to the beloved Ferrari V12 sound soon
