California [2008-2017] [Renders] Next generation Ferrari California II (MY2018)

[tristatez28lt1]

Supposedly:

- Flavio Manzoni designed Coupé-Cabrio keeps Hardtop, but will be lighter and lower.
- up to 700 PS 3,9-Liter-V8
- 2,9-Liter-V6 Twin Turbo with 450 and 600 PS
- As the V6 has two cylinders less (thereby shorter than V8) Ferrari could option for a Hybrid

Can't imagine it will look like that...

Cool render but it implies that the California will be a strict two seater which I don't think will be the case.

Next California should be a two seater. 8 speed dual clutch. Weight loss again. It'll be an incredible car also hybrid possibility in the future but not from the start.

New California replacement already? The California T is only reaching 3 years old.

WoW, didn't expect this, but then again the California T is based on the original so it's and old/new car.

Ferrari is currently on 4+4 years model life. They are now always 100% precise but they stick with it.

The main question here is. Will it have 48V mild hybrid system?
Some time ago during quarterly conference call Sergio said something. All Ferraris from 2019 will be hybrids.

Also interesting. It seems that 488 GTB successor will have a 48V tech but it will also have electric turbo.

Sergio during FCA Q2 2017 conference call said some interesting thing about Maserati and FCA electrification.
No wonder that Lorenzo Sassi left Ferrari F1 engine program and took over role of CTO for hybrid and electric vehicle both for Ferrari cars and FCA.

Simply put, the Cali T is a facelift.

So, we now have three threads for this?
