With carmakers currently making the transition to complete electrification, few brands are experiencing as much pressure as Ferrari - given the silent nature of electric motors and the pure emotion evoked by simply mentioning the name of the Prancing Horse, this is no easy journey for the Italians. Well, this rendering is here to help by tapping into Maranello's racing past.
We're obviously dealing with a modern incarnation of the Ferrari Breadvan. You know, the 250 GT SWB that Giotto Bizzarrini designed to race Enzo's 250 GTO, in a story we know as The Great Ferrari Walkout of 1961, which almost threw Ferrari off course altogether.
The Kamm tail aerodynamic principles that would allow this machine to be even more of a speed devil than a coupe are certainly here, but what about the rest of the proposal?
Well, the front end reminds us of models such as the SF90 Stradale hyper-hybrid or the SP38 one-off built on the 488 GTB. Nevertheless, the lower area is dominated by super-sized aero elements, with this also being true for the sides and the posterior of the vehicle.
In fact, the way in which the airflow-manipulating side skirts are styled might just bring Lamborghini's name to mind - perhaps automotive and industrial designer Antonio Bruno, who is responsible for the project, intended to add even more drama in this fashion.
As for the rear end design, the rather minimalist approach deserves a round of applause, simply because it exists in an era dominated by overdesigning.
This machine is envisioned as an all-electric effort and it's not far from what's currently happening in the real world. You see, Ferrari is currently in the midst of a hybridization revolution, with the Purosangue SUV, which should land in 2022, obviously being a key pillar of this strategy.
And yes, we can expect an all-electric Fezza, but this will land in the second half of the decade - as other names in the go-fast business, Ferrari is waiting for battery technology to advance, so its electric supercars/hypercars don't have to deal with the weight burden of the current hardware.
