Concept image of the 2012 Ferrari F70-Enzo successor
According to Road & Track, there are some ambitious plans for a heir to the Enzo. The Italian supercar maker is working on a program for a mid-engine supercar with only one goal, outperforming the Enzo in combination with being considerably more efficient to comply with emissions standards. So that means less weight, smaller engine and a more compact setup.
They do expect extensive use of carbon fiber on the vehicle achieving the ultimate performance. The target weight for the rumored F70 is around 1000kg.
Regarding the engine the latest word is that the F70 will go possibly with a twin-turbo V8. Only the F70′s direct-injected engine will use the very latest technologies to eliminate turbo lag, achieve 670-700 bhp yet return excellent (for a Ferrari) fuel mileage and low emissions. A hybrid powertrain seems to be unlikely for the F70. The F70 should reach 60 mph in less than 3 seconds. The target top speed of over 230 mph is reached using a number of drag-reducing active aerodynamic features.
This information follows after rumors have been spread around for some months now. We have to wait and see until more information is being released, however the setup seems to be promising.
