AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/11 Report--

Ferrari's CEO Louis Camilleri announced in this year's Ferrari conference call that it will launch a hybrid sports car with a mid-engine, which has earlier revealed a set of road test photos. The new car, based on the Ferrari 488, is likely to be equipped with a V8 twin-turbocharged engine and an electric motor, with the first delivery expected in early 2020.

The position of the car in the Ferrari system is slightly higher than that of the 488 models, and the front grille has been changed in appearance compared with the 488. The new car is expected to be named 486 and is based on the 488 production platform.

According to foreign media speculation, the power of this new hybrid supercar is likely to exceed LaFerrari's 588kW (800PS), or even 735kW (1000PS). In addition, Ferrari plans to have 60% of its hybrid models in 2022.

On the power side, the upcoming hybrid supercar will be equipped with a V8 twin-turbocharged engine and an electric motor.

For Ferrari fans, the launch of the hybrid V8 supercar may mean that hybrid technology will no longer be reserved for limited edition professional models such as the Lafferari. Ferrari from the beginning of the V8/V12 self-priming engine camp, to the introduction of turbochargers, and then to the current hybrid, can be said to be a brand-new reform of itself!
