Rumor: Enzo Replacement, the F70 will get a twin turbo V8

Replacement for the extreme Enzo is expected to arrive in 2012. Enzo was powered by a 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V12, but according to latest reports its successor F70 will get a twin-turbo V8 that produces around 660 horsepower.

That’s about the same as the Enzo V12 produces, but the difference is in the weight. Successor to Enzo will weigh about 360 kg less making it a lot faster.

Rendered speculation: 2012 Ferrari Enzo

Ferrari is working on the new Enzo that is known internally as FX70. There are no information on potential powertrain. Ferrari could go with the V12, just like the first Enzo or downsize to a twin-turbo V8. V8 would have less power, but it would also save weight keeping the same performance.

New Enzo should be ready earliest by 2011 with a price tag above $600,000 and a production run limited to just few hundred units.
