    Ferrari FXX K 

    The perfect blend of style and technology, and of art and engineering.

    Based on Ferrari’s first ever hybrid, the FXX-K is the most extreme expression of LaFerrari, the most high-performance road car ever. Designed at the end of 2014 for the XX Programmes focused on research and development, this model was born to go like the wind, thanks to the combination of its exceptional aerodynamics and engine.
    Unprecedented driving experience
    Free from the restrictions of type-approval and regulations, as it is not designed for use in competitions, the FXX-K is equipped with a series oftechnical innovations that guarantee an unprecedented driving experience. The enormous potential of the car captured in numbers: a total of 1050 hp, 860 of which is delivered by the V12 internal combustion engine, with a further 190 provided by the electric motor, with more than 900 Nm total maximum torque.
    Ferrari FXX-K - Engine

    The 6262 cm3 V12 engine is equipped with two new camshafts, mechanical (instead of hydraulic) distribution of the valves, which have been changed accordingly, specific engine mapping, re-designed intake ducts with a different polishing treatment, and an overhauled exhaust line, which has seen the elimination of the silencers.

    The HY-KERS system has been developed with a focus on pure performance, with operational logics that can be managed by the driver via a special 4-position manettino: Qualify, to obtain the maximum performance within a limited rpm; Long Run for optimising performance consistency; Manual Boost for instantaneous delivery of the maximum torque; Fast Charge, to activate fast battery charging.

    The desire to improve lap performance on the track has led to a number of far-reaching interventions on the car; however, all of these have been integrated into the body of the vehicle in terms of active and passive aerodynamics.
    A winning experience
    On the front of the car stands the wing, composed of two elements, with a larger splitter that is lower by 30 mm, with a gap at its centre. This innovation is inspired by the winning experience of Ferrari in the GTE category of the World Endurance Championship, where the Prancing Horse triumphed for three years in a row between 2012 and 2014, and again in 2016 and 2017.
    Ferrari FXX-K - Aerodynamics

    A dual pair of lateral turning vanes and vertical fins serve to direct the air towards the flanks of the car, funnelling the wake from the front to the outer part of the underbody. This is sealed by the body skirts that extend from the sill, creating the advantage of a considerable reduction in resistance, along with an increase in aerodynamic load resulting from the more effective use of the aerodynamic underbody.

    The rear end of the car is also highly sophisticated, with the raised tail of the bodywork and the mobile rear spoiler, the length of which is extended, with a total increase of 60 mm in maximum extension. Two “candelabri” (small wing profiles), consisting of a vertical fin and a horizontal profile, act to provide drift in a low-resistance configuration, whilst in a high load configuration, they amplify the performance of the spoiler. Furthermore, this system generates powerful suction forces at the rear of the car, helping, among other things, to take full advantage of the flat part of the underbody in front of the rear wheels, thanks to two by-pass ducts that reduce the pressure inside the wheel compartment. The rear diffuser, which is extremely wide, optimises air extraction from the vehicle underbody.

    The result is a 50% improvement in the downforce in the low resistance configuration, and a 30% improvement in the more extreme downforce configuration, which reaches 540 kg at a speed of 200 km/h.

    Ferrari FXX-K - Aerodynamics
    The dynamics of the vehicle benefit from the introduction of Pirelli sensorised slick tyres, which allow monitoring of longitudinal, lateral and radial acceleration, as well as of temperature and pressure values.
    Dynamics
    This solution enables a thorough and precise analysis of the interaction between the tyre and the asphalt, thus enriching the traction control with valuable data, allowing maximum performance levels to be achieved. The degree of intervention provided by the E-Diff electronic differential, the F1-Trac traction control, the electronic cornering control with specific calibration for slick tyres (Racing SSC) and the performance ABS can be controlled through the 5-position racing manettino on the steering wheel.

    The designers at Ferrari’s Style Centre have unleashed the energy of the original design.
    A prize-winning design
    Each line of the car provides an optimal contribution to its performance. The appeal of the FXX-K is derived from the work carried out alongside the aerodynamic engineers, and is expressed both through the overall appearance of the car and through the individual details. The need for a greater aerodynamic load, without disregarding aesthetic considerations, inspired the changes made to each of the panels of the bodywork, beginning with the rear flaps mounted on unusual rudder-shaped fins, which are integrated into the volume of the mudguard and reinforce the “driven” forward effect of the silhouette.

    The headlights have been replaced by high-performance horizontal diode strips that catch the eye, as well as helping to broaden the frontal view. Furthermore, the graphics on the livery, a key component of the style of the car, serve to boldly highlight the main lines of this model. All of this, combined with the lowered suspension, wider tracks, increased camber and slick tyres fitted on lighter rims, serve as clear confirmation that the FXX-K's is destined for the track. A prize-winning design. The prizes won by the FXX-K are further testament to its beauty. In February 2016, the car took home the Gold Award at the IF Design Awards 2016 ceremony in Munich, winning over the jury of experts with its design and functionality. A little later, in March, it won the Red Dot Best of the Best prize, a much-coveted design award, for its superb quality and innovative design. Furthermore, in June 2016, it won the Compasso d’Oro, one of the most sought-after and prestigious awards in the world of design. When delivering this prize, the ADI (Industrial Design Association) jury explained that it had awarded the Ferrari FXX-K the “Compasso d'Oro for cars of great industrial craftsmanship that reflect the values of Ferrari and Made in Italy, in recognition of the efforts of a tremendous team that embodies the values of a historic brand.”
