The top speed is 350km/h, and the static acceleration to 100km takes only 3.65s These two parameters make this Enzo Ferrari the fastest road bike ever produced by Ferrari Group. This car is named after the founder of Ferrari (/KLOC-0 died in 988), and it is also the fourth limited production model of Ferrari. The other three models are: 288 GTO of 1984, F40 of 1987 and F50 of 1995. (All pictures can be clicked to enlarge)
According to Ferrari's factory, the price of this V 12 mid-engine and fiery red two-seater supercar will exceed 420,000 pounds, and only 349 cars will be produced. Enzo adopts a lot of F 1 technology, and is equipped with F 1 sequential shift gearbox and oversized carbon fiber ceramic brake disc. Although the horsepower of the car is as high as 660 horsepower, it is very easy to drive. The purpose is to give everyone a chance to drive a super sports car without Schumacher's driving skills. Schumacher also participated in the development of racing cars. He said that although this car can't give you the feeling of F 1, it is the closest model to F 1 among all road cars. Therefore, the legendary McLaren F 1 racing car may have higher speed and stronger technology, but Enzo is easier to drive and much cheaper than F 1.

FXX prototype is the most technologically advanced GT car produced by Maranello, and only 29 cars have been produced at present. As part of the special research and development plan being carried out by the first customer testing team, it will only be used on the track. FXX is not certified for road and race use.
FXX is the product of Ferrari's technology of manufacturing limited edition sports cars and unparalleled racing experience. It will provide a basic framework for the design of future limit models. FXX, which has super power, has performed well in all aspects. First of all, the 6262cc V 12 engine can produce 800 horsepower at 8500 rpm. The gearbox comes from the design of F 1, and the shift can be completed within 0. 1 second, almost as fast as the most advanced F 1 racing car. FXX net weight 1 155 kg, horsepower-to-weight ratio 1.44kg/ horsepower. When tested at Fiorano circuit, its lap speed is less than 1 min 18 seconds, which shows the powerful horsepower and perfect performance of super sports car from one side.
The aerodynamic design of FXX is also very innovative, and the downforce is 40% higher than that of Enzo. The cooperation between Ferrari and Bridgestone is also reflected in the customized 19 for FXX? On a bare tire. Similarly, Brembo also provides a special brake cooling system for FXX's 398 x 36 mm ceramic brake disc.
Another feature of FXX is that it is equipped with advanced remote sensing system, which can monitor and provide feedback in real time. Magneti Marelli provides a new dashboard and data acquisition system.
The roof of each car is also equipped with a camera that can look back. Drivers can see images on a special TFT display screen, which replaces the traditional rearview mirror.
FXX's subsidiary plans also include participating in 14 track activities organized by Ferrari in various international standard tracks in Europe, North America and Japan in the next two years (Spa and newberg forest track have been confirmed in 2006). At that time, a group of technicians will be present to provide corresponding help to the customer testing team. In addition, customers have the opportunity to enjoy the track alone in their private time. If the customer proposes to store the car in Maranello when not using FXX, Ferrari will deliver the car directly to the European circuit at the scheduled activity time.
Considering the special performance of the vehicle and the unique subsidiary plan, each FXX also includes a special driving course at the time of delivery. Of course, the instructor will be a professional racing driver, and the course will be held at Fiorano circuit, where Ferrari has conducted many important F 1 tests. First, seats and pedals will be set according to different situations of each person, then the traditional "test drive" ceremony, and then the training session will introduce the test drive method to the customer test group. The first batch of FXX will be delivered in mid-June 165438+ 10, and the last batch will be delivered to the owner before the end of April next year. The price of FXX and its related plans is 6.5438+0.5 million euros (before tax). There is a special internal committee to evaluate the applicants for this project.
At the Bologna Motor Show, the F430 Challenge was also exhibited in Italy for the first time. This new racing car of prancing horse comes from an 8-cylinder two-seater road sports car and will take part in the Ferrari Pirelli Cup series challenge in 2006.
F430 Challenge is specially designed to meet the needs of customers who prefer sports cars. Through it, Ferrari once again reiterated the close relationship between its sports car and the racing department. F430 Challenge retains roughly the same appearance and 490 horsepower engine as the road version F430, but at the same time, it has made many track-oriented modifications and introduced many new technologies that have not been used in the 360 Challenge, the main model of the current series. Starting from next year, the F430 Challenge will also join the competition, and the old models will be completely replaced by 2007.
As before, the influence from F 1 is very obvious, especially when the ceramic (CCM) braking system is first used in Ferrari sports cars. The electronic gearbox is also developed from F 1, and its working principle is exactly the same as that used in grand prix racing. Relying on the sintering process and the clutch strengthened by special software, the F430 Challenge can provide the same shift time (150ms) as the highway version F430 under more difficult track conditions. In order to give full play to the engine in various tracks, the gear ratios of 5th and 6th gears of F430 Challenge have also been modified compared with the road version. Pirelli has designed a brand-new 19 for the track mode? Bald tires to meet the requirements of strict racing rules for wear resistance and professional performance.
F430 Challenge is proud that its own weight is only 1225 kg. From the engine to the whole body, every link should be as "slim" as possible. Especially worth mentioning is Lexan's windshield, carbon fiber air intake grille and special exhaust system. In order to ensure that drivers can exert the maximum power of racing cars on the track, electronic differential system (E-Diff) and electronic braking force distribution system (EBD) are replaced by mechanical devices. Similarly, the driver can turn off the acceleration slip adjustment (ASR), and stability control is no longer needed. All other electronic systems are set to "racing" mode, so the mode selection function is no longer needed. And ABS has always been active.
