The Ferrari FF: The world's first practical supercar!


If you're rich enough to buy a Ferrari, you're still going to be annoyed that it is not very practical. It can only seat two people and can barely carry anything in its tiny trunk. That means you'll have to buy another (not as sporty) car when you need to carry more people or cargo. Well, Ferrari has just released a car that you can consider somewhat practical! This car is called the Ferrari FF, a car that will replace the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti. It will make its debut at the Geneva Auto Show. It features a hatch trunk that opens to reveal 15.9 cubic feet of truck space (that's more than a Camry!), and when the two rear seats are folded flat, you get a whopping 28.3 cubic feet of cargo space (that's as much as a Cadillac SRX SUV!) And, though obviously the rear seats will be rather tight, this car will seat four people! It's also the first Ferrari in 23 years to have all-wheel drive! This will help in bad weather. It uses 4RM, Ferrari's AWD technolology. The last Ferrari to have this feature was the Ferrari 408 (shown below). But it wasn't nearly as pretty as the FF (shown at top of post):


Despite its practicality, the FF doesn't fall short on performance. It has a 6.3 liter V12 direct-injected fuel engine that can achieve 650 bhp. In short, this is the world's first somewhat practical supercar.
