And Ferrari car has made a metamorphosis, revealing to F80 and its new engine that totally revolutionizes what we already knew. It seems that sports cars are in the same line as other cars, in reference to the transition and environmental pollution, are we prepared for change?
The new fuel that Ferrari proves to change its sports mechanics
Normally, when you think of a sports car or hypercoche, internal combustion always comes to mind as the main source of power, such as this atmospheric engine that aims to change the world. However, Ferrari wanted to sit new bases.
The legendary brand has launched the Ferrari F80, a hypercoche that pays tribute to several iconic models of the company. But, there is an element that highlights and is its engine. They are breaking schemes and molds that have been ranging for years, giving goodbye to the famous atmospheric V12 engine.
So what do you have under your hood? The Ferrari F80 will have a hybrid V6 Biturbo enginemoving away from the traditional V12. Although a controversial change for many fans, does not compromise car performance. This combustion engine generates 900 hp with a specific power of 300 hp/l.
To this are added 300 hp additional electrical systemallowing to exceed 1000 hp. So, although you travel in a hybrid engine, you will not have to miss the traditional engine, since, you will not feel the power and performance difference.
A design that completely challenges physics with the v6 hybrid biturbo
A good design and great power, what else can you ask for? With two engines, an inverter and a cooling systemyou will have guaranteed performance at all times. In addition, it stands out for having an investor in two ways, that is, it can go upside down and go ahead.
All this is based on an 800 volt battery, which uses cells derived from formula 1 and a cell-to-pack architecture to maximize efficiency and reduce weight. In total, the battery offers 2.3 kWh of energy and a maximum power of 242 kW, divided into three modules of 204 cells each.
Specifically, the electrical propulsion system is distributed in three electric motors: two on the front and one rear axlewhich allows you to intelligent total traction with torque vectorization. In other words, you will have power in a single wheel, while cutting into another.
With this, you improve the route in the curves, because you have greater ease and control. The power investor acts in both directions, recovering energy during braking to recharge the battery. So, if you care about the load, you will have no problem.
The result is a car capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.15 seconds and reaching 200 km/h in just 5.75 seconds. The maximum speed is 350 km/h, and it only needs 98 meters to reach 200 km/h from stop.
Will the acceptance expected by fans and purists of sports cars have?
Something that worries is the response of sports cars lovers. The disappearance of the V12 engine in favor of the hybrid V6 Biturbo has generated a great debate. For example, Japan reveals the engine that ends electric, and can reach everyone.
However, traditional car lovers may not be so receptive. Although Ferrari has shown that efficiency and power They are not at odds with performance. The F80 is a great advance of the hyperdeporters of the future that will be hybrid, intelligent and more powerful than ever.
So, the Ferrari F80, with its new engine and fuelwill be a limited edition of 799 units, all of them already assigned to selected clients. The price has not yet been officially revealed, but it is expected to be consistent with its exclusivity, technology and legacy.
