Ferrari’s plans for the future

Ferrari’s plans for the future

The hardtop convertible California is already a very successful model, but Ferrari is not one to dwell on success. Once the California goes on sale in the U.S. in June 2009, Ferrari will prepare a redesigned F430 for the second half of 2009. The car will feature a new aluminum chassis and a direct-injection engine derived from the California, as well as the new seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

In 2010 or 2011 we will see a retractable hardtop variant of the 599 GTB Fiorano; while the 612 Scaglietti will be replaced in 2011.

The biggest news coming from Ferrari is a limited edition high-performance car, possibly 2010 or 2011. The car will use lightweight construction inspired by the Millechili concept, which was unveiled last year at Ferrari’s 60th anniversary event. The concept has a 550-hp, twin-turbocharged, direct-injection 3.0-liter V-8. The production car will likely be powered by a V-12.
