Ferrari to Launch Six New Models Until 2013

Ferrari has revealed it will produce six new models before 2013 as part of Fiat's restructuring plans that were announced today. The six new models include a successor for the Ferrari Enzo hypercar and a hardcore version of the 458, like the 430 Scuderia.

The first model to be revealed will be the Spider variant of the entry-level 458, scheduled for 2011. Next year we will also see a new generation of the top of the range model 612 Scaglietti. This car will most likely provide the base for Ferrari’s first ever hybrid model. Codenamed F151, the 612 Scaglietti successor’s name is not yet clear.

In 2012 we’ll get to see the most anticipated Ferrari, the next hypercar that will build on the Enzo’s fame. Produced between 2002 and 2004 in just 400 units, the Enzo was powered by a V12 engine. No further details have been released about the Enzo successor. Also in 2012 Ferrari will showcase an all-new version of the 599 GTB Fiorano, currently known as F152.

The Ferrari California will receive a major facelift in 2013 and is referred to as the California M by Ferrari insiders. Finally, the last model that will be revealed in 2013 is a hardcore version of the 458 Italia, most likely to be named the 458 Scuderia. The company announced that it will not build more than four standard production models, so that the range will look like today, with the 458, the 599, the 612 and the California. The next Enzo is considered as a special model and it is not part of the standard range.

Ferrari has also stated it wants to continue the differentiation between its sports cars and its grand tourers, so that there will be no crossover models between the 458 and 599 supercars and the 612 and California cruisers.
