Ferrari FXX

The most advanced GT ever created at Maranello

The FXX is the most advanced GT ever created at Maranello. With this car, Ferrari aims to develop the skills of their most valued Clients to the level of genuine Ferrari Test Drivers.

Powered by an imposing 6,262 cc V12 engine, the FXX can punch out over 800 hp at 8,500 rpm. Its highly responsive gearbox is the result of the transfer of Formula 1 strategies, delivering gear-change times of less than 100 ms. This is almost as fast as Formula 1 single-seaters, themselves the absolute pinnacle of current technological achievement.

What really sets the FXX apart, however, is its sophisticated telemetry system, which monitors and provides feedback on 39 different vehicle dynamic parameters in real time. This information can then be analysed by Ferrari technicians working on the programme, who will then discuss their findings with the individual Client Drivers to ensure that the car is kept constantly updated.

Each Client who signs up for the FXX programme when they purchase one of these supercars automatically becomes a part of Team Ferrari – their driving is monitored by Ferrari specialists and technicians. The data and driving experience gathered during this programme is then compared against that of current Formula 1 team members and Ferrari's professional in-house Test Drivers.

Technical specifications

The FXX is the fruit of Ferrari's know-how in building special, limited-series sports cars combined (of course) with its racing experience. The car will provide the basic framework on which the specifics of future extreme models will be worked out. The exceptionally powerful FXX delivers absolutely blistering performance on all fronts. The FXX has not been homologated for road use, and thus will not be a competition model. It will be used exclusively on the track as part of a specific ongoing research and development programme, featuring this first-ever group of Client Test Drivers. The FXX is powered by an imposing 6,262 cc V12 engine that can punch out over 800 hp at 8,500 rpm. Its gearbox is the result of the transfer of F1 strategies, delivering gear-change times of under 100 ms. This is almost as fast as the F1 single-seaters, themselves the absolute pinnacle of current technological achievement. The FXX's aerodynamic design is particularly innovative too, resulting in a shape that produces 40% higher down-force than ever achieved before. It is also possible to adjust the FXX's mobile spoiler configuration to suit the specific circuit.
