As far as race cars go, the Ferrari is at the top of its game and so it comes as no surprise that a concept design would blow people's minds away. That's exactly the case when it comes to the Ferrari F80. A beast of a vehicle with its aerodynamic aesthetic and red hot paint job, the Ferrari F80 concept might look like its predecessors, but it proposes some exciting changes.
First of all, and most notably, the Ferrari F80 concept swaps out the V12 engine for "KERS technology to coax a hypothetical 1,200 horses from a twin-turbo hybrid V8," writes Uncrate. Imagined by Italian designer Adriano Raeli, he "expects that power to be good for a 0-62 time of 2.2 seconds, and a top speed of 310 mph, fast enough to earn a spot among the fastest production cars of all time."
