Named "The Ferrari" in Italian, the LaFerrari is marketed as the marque’s definitive model, and it joins the McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder in a lineup now recognised as ‘the holy trinity’. Unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Auto Show, only 499 units were produced, and each cost more than £1m.
LaFerrari is the first hybrid produced by the Italian automotive marque, which at the time of its release, provided the highest power output of any Ferrari road car. Its 6.3-litre V12 revs to 9,250rpm and develops 789bhp at 9,000rpm, for a specific output of 128bhp-per-litre, while maximum torque is 516lb ft at 6,750rpm. This is supplemented by the F1-style kinetic energy recovery system (KERS), comprising an electric motor that drives directly through the differential (rather than the gearbox, as in the P1), rotates at 16,500rpm and contributes a further 161bhp and 199lb ft in short bursts. The engine is coupled to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The car is equipped with carbon-ceramic Brembo brake discs, and uses a rigid carbon fibre monocoque structure designed by Ferrari's F1 technical director Rory Byrne. It has double wishbone suspension in the front, and a multi-link setup in the rear.
LaFerrari has several electronic safety systems, including electronic stability control, high-performance ABS/EBD (anti-lock braking system/electronic brake distribution), ‘EF1-Trac F1’ electronic traction control integrated with the hybrid system, the ‘E-Diff 3’ third-generation electronic differential, ‘SCM-E Frs’ magnetorheological damping with twin solenoids, and active aerodynamics including front and rear diffusers, an underbody guide vane and a rear spoiler, which are controlled by 21 onboard computers developed by Magneti Marelli.
The design of the V12 flagship received no input from Pininfarina, making it the first Ferrari since the Bertone-styled 1973 Dino 308 GT4 not to have Pininfarina styling. This decision is a rare exception to the collaboration between Ferrari and Pininfarina that began in 1951.
Ferrari states that the car has a top speed of 218 mph, and can sprint from 0–62 mph in 2.6 seconds, from 0–124 mph in 6.9 seconds, and from 0–186 mph in 15 seconds. Ferrari also claims that the car has lapped its Fiorano Test Circuit in 1:19.70.
