F Bombs: Watch supercar tech evolve through 3 vintage Ferraris - Digital Trends
We were recently offered the chance to compare three legendary Ferrari supercars side-by-side: The Ferrari F40, F50, and the Enzo. Twin turbos and a V8 engine pumped out 478 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque. By 1995, Ferrari produced the F50, abandoning the turbos for old-fashioned V12 power. Seven years later, Ferrari stunned the world with the F60 Enzo. The car’s 6. 0-liter V12 laid down a mighty 651 horsepower and 485 pound feet of torque. The Enzo offered a six-speed F1 electro-hydraulic transmission, being among the pioneers that brought paddle shifting from race car to road car. The Enzo offered active aerodynamics and traction control, which helped keep it manageable as it shot from 0 to 60 in just over three seconds on the way to its 221 miles per hour top speed. This year, the buzz is all about the LaFerrari – a technological miracle car with an unbelievable 950 horsepower and 789 pound feet of torque from its direct-injected hybrid V12/electric drivetrain.
