Ferrari “12 Cylinders”, 830 horsepower maximum power

Redazione
ferrari 12Cilindri

There is an inextricable link between Ferrari and 12-cylinder engines. The V12 mechanical architecture represents the founding act of the Maranello company and has symbolized its motoring DNA for 77 years. Precisely for this reason, “12Cilindri” today becomes the name of a new two-seater sedan created to pay homage to the history of the Cavallino, giving the fashions and trends currently in vogue in the super sports car segment. Contrary to what is proposed by all the most prestigious brands, Ferrari has deliberately avoided any form of electrification to maintain…

Ford “Mustang Gtd Carbon”: limited edition

Redazione

The 2025 “Gtd” version of Ford’s iconic “Mustang” was presented in a limited edition mid-last year, but deliveries have yet to begin, as they are expected between the end of this year and the beginning of 2025. This supercar is decidedly testosterone-fueled, a term justified by its strong technical and aesthetic content aimed at combining racing car performance with street muscle car design. For instance, the main design constraint given by Ford to its engineers when they started developing the “Mustang Gtd” was to create a car capable of lapping…

Audi “S3” model year 2024

Redazione

In an increasingly globalized automotive market where manufacturers seem almost exclusively focused on electrification processes, Audi reminds the entire industry that cars are also about passion and driving pleasure. This reminder comes with the restyling intervention that the German brand has decided to apply to the “A3” series, refreshed in both exterior and interior design details, along with the announcement of the revamped “S3” sports version. In this case, however, calling it a restyling is quite an understatement, as the Ingolstadt brand has profoundly renewed one of the most appreciated…

Opel “Frontera” is back

Redazione

“Frontera” returns, the historic name of the automotive industry which was the successful protagonist of the market between 1991 and 2003. It’s a shame, however, that Opel has decided to distort its legacy, delegating the comeback of an acronym synonymous with off-road vehicles to a crossover that has nothing to do with what to share with the original version. The choice, perhaps the result of the desire to resort to emotional names from the past to relaunch sales or the result of Opel’s entry into a universe, Stellantis, which had…

Evolution of battery packs towards CTC

Redazione

Battery packs powering current electric vehicles have rapidly evolved over time, transitioning from “Ctm” (Cell to Module) configurations to “Ctp” (Cell to Pack) and “Ctb” (Cell to Body). The next step is the “Ctc” (Cell to Chassis) configurations. While battery manufacturers work to create groups with increasingly higher performance, car manufacturers are also looking in the same direction, seeking to directly integrate batteries into the chassis of their vehicles. It should be noted that a battery pack normally consists of multiple cells integrated into a single module. By combining multiple…

Dacia “Duster” m.y. 2024: third generation

Redazione

Among the most successful SUVs, the Dacia “Dunster” has been produced in over two million and 200 thousand units in just 14 years, with 300 thousand sold in Italy alone. Therefore, it’s a global success, achieved through a design strategy aimed at achieving the best possible quality/price ratio without sacrificing content and technology, a goal reaffirmed by the third generation of the vehicle presented at the end of 2023. True to its image but modernized in design and developed on the basis of the “Cmf-B” platform also adopted by other…
