► New, one-off Ferrari revealed
► HC25 is based on F8 Spider
► Could this be the last non-electrified V8 Ferrari?
Ferrari has unveiled the HC25 at the Circuit of the Americas in Texas. It’s the latest one-off supercar designed under the supervision of Flavio Manzoni as part of the Special Projects programme.
Built to the wishes of a single client, the HC25 features unique styling elements and refined proportions. It shares the same chassis and powertrain as the last open-top mid-rear engined non-hybrid turbo V8, F8 Spider. Power is delivered to the rear wheels using a 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8 producing 710bhp and 568lb ft.
All this is courtesy of the Special Projects programme which typically spends two years with the client to create this one-of-a-kind supercar. You may remember when Ferrari unveiled the Ferrari SP-8; itself, another one-off roadster based on the F8 Spider. An idea is put forward by a client, which is then sketched and manufactured before the client approves.
Ferrari defines the HC25 as a bridge between the mid‑rear‑engined V8 platform and more recent flagships models such as the Ferrari 12Cilindri and F80. A tribute to the turbo V8 Ferraris of the last decade. The reality is that it feels a little more like a eulogy than a celebration.
