(Ferrari LaFerrari)Design development
Nine conceptual design studies manufactured for the development of the V12 hybrid flagship were considered in 2011. These 9 designs were brought down to a selection of 5 in April of 2011 (3 by Ferrari Centro Stile and 2 by Pininfarina).
Out of these 5 designs, two full size concepts were built; LaFerrari Concept Manta (internal designation: 2011 Model 2) and LaFerrari Concept Tensostruttura (internal designation 2011 Model 3). These were unveiled at the Ferrari Museum in Maranello and the Ferrari World.
The final design of the LaFerrari became similar to the Manta concept (Model 2).
It is interesting to note that Ferrari Centro Stile cars designed after the LaFerrari carry design elements reminiscent of the Tensostruttura concept (Model 3) e.g. the SF90 Stradale. Ferrari LaFerrari wallpapers#AudiRS4 #Koenigsegg #Tesla #FerrariRoma #AudiRS3
