These are the latest images of Ferrari’s new range-topping supercar – codename F150 – which have been published in the company’s in-house magazine.

The pictures reveal that the styling is heavily influenced by Formula 1. The front-end features an aggressively sculpted bonnet, with a tapered centre section reminiscent of an F1 car’s nosecone. At the rear there is a centrally mounted single exhaust pipe, which again appears to be modelled around the stop-light of a grand prix car.
 
The F150 also features a double-bubble roof – likely to increase room for wearing crash helmets – and swept-back headlights in the style of the recently launched F12, which visually accentuate the width of the car.
 
The F150, which is the successor to the ten-year old Ferrari Enzo, will make its public debut next spring. It will use a V12 engine mated to an F1-style KERS system.
 
The engine is a development of the 731bhp unit found in the F12. With electrical assistance, peak power for the F150 could be as much as 850bhp.
