This is the carbon fiber core of Ferrari’s first hybrid

Ferrari has already said that it will never make an electric car — at least, not while Luca di Montezemolo is in charge — but we already know that a hybrid Ferrari is in the cards. And, this is what will hold it all together. At this year’s Paris Auto Show the company rolled out this carbon fiber cage that is the core chassis of the machine. Other than a pledge that the thing will use F1-inspired technology nobody would tell us what it would be called (possibly F70, at least internally) or just when the rest of its components will be bolted on. But, for now, enjoy this sneak peek under the skin of Ferrari’s next hypercar.
