The static model of the FXX Millechili was made of plastic and cardboard, and was displayed together with the Formula 1 racing car and the FXX.

Compared to the "standard" FXX, the Ferrari Millechili ("1000 kg" in Italian) Concept has compact dimensions: the wheelbase is 93.7 inches (-10.6) and the external body features much shorter overhangs.

In its current layout it could be powered by the V12 engine that equips the Enzo/FXX or by the V8 unit.

About Ferrari 'Technological Innovation' Workshop

The Workshop took place in Maranell last 21 June 2007, as part of the celebrations for the 60th anniversary of the Italian brand.

During the event Ferrari has revealed the main aspects of its future product strategy, which will be mainly focused on higher performances by reducing the vehicle weight, and increasing the energy efficiency.

The goal is to achieve total weight savings of about 300 kg, with savings of about 110kg for the engine and 90 kg for the main vehicle construction.

Some aerodynamics technical details were also revealed, including innovative solutions that contribute to reduce the drag coefficient: active synthetic jets, passive blowing, management of internal flows and underbody active flow control.

For what concerns the engine, among the main goals are the increase of the efficiency, the capability of running on biofuels and the development of hybrid solutions.
