Ferrari has unveiled the highly anticipated successor to the LaFerrari, marking the next chapter in its legacy of high-performance hybrid hypercars. The LaFerrari, part of the renowned "Holy Trinity" of early 2010s hybrid supercars, holds a special place in Ferrari’s “Big Five” lineup as a groundbreaking model. Now, its successor, the Ferrari F80, takes the mantle as Ferrari’s new flagship, continuing the brand’s tradition of pushing the limits of automotive engineering. As the latest ultra-exclusive model, the F80 promises to be another iconic milestone in Ferrari’s 75+ years of creating exceptional race cars and high-performance vehicles.

The Ferrari F80 represents a bold evolution of Ferrari's performance philosophy, following in the footsteps of the 296 GTB with its advanced V6 hybrid powertrain. At the heart of the F80 is a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine, paired with an electric front axle and motors that assist the turbochargers. This highly efficient system generates a staggering 900 horsepower from the engine alone, achieving an impressive 300 horsepower per liter. Ferrari drew heavily on technology from its Le Mans-winning 499P hypercar to achieve this extraordinary output. In total, the F80 delivers a mind-blowing 1,200 horsepower, making it Ferrari’s most powerful road car to date.

The F80’s hybrid system also marks a milestone as the first electric motor entirely designed and manufactured by Ferrari. Coupled with a cutting-edge motorsport-inspired chassis and advanced aerodynamics, the F80 manages incredible performance while weighing in at just 3,362 pounds dry. The car’s active aero system, derived from Ferrari’s expertise in Formula 1 and endurance racing, includes a rear wing that adjusts in real-time for optimal downforce, contributing to over a ton of aerodynamic load. With a top speed of 217 mph and a 0-60 time of just 2.15 seconds, the F80 is engineered for extreme performance at every level.

In terms of design, the F80 adopts Ferrari’s most futuristic styling yet, blending elements from the iconic F40 with a modern two-tone aesthetic, highlighted by exposed carbon fiber. Its dynamic rear wing offers dramatically different looks depending on whether it's deployed or stowed, enhancing both the car’s appearance and aerodynamics. Inside, the F80 features a “1+” configuration that prioritizes the driver, with minimal accommodations for passengers. The unique seating arrangement includes two-tone seats set at an offset angle, allowing for a narrower cabin without sacrificing ergonomics. With a custom-designed steering wheel that replaces haptic controls with more intuitive buttons, the F80 is built for on-track precision and ultimate control.
