Ferrari has chosen Detroit as the venue for the presentation at a bio-fuel powered F430 Spider, in recognition of growing interest in North America in alternative sources of energy.
The development of an engine powered by the bio-fuel E85 comes as part of a research and development program announced during the Technological Innovation Conference held at Maranello last June as part of our 60th Anniversary Celebrations.

Ferrari 430 Spider Bio Fuel Concept
The Ferrari F430 Spider Biofuel uses an 85% ethanol mix and was developed with using experience gleaned in competition. By developing this technological demonstration prototype however, Ferrari has proved category that it can offer the technological solutions demanded by the market demands without impinging on the distinctly sporty, high performance character and supreme driving pleasure of the unique cars it builds at Maranello.

Geneva Auto Show is really close and there are several rumors about a couple of new concept cars that will appear there for the first time. One of this will probably be Sintesi, a new concept car made by Pininfarina, the famous car designers from Italy.
Sintesi will be a supercar with huge ambitions and it’s the first concept car made by Pininfarina after a 3-year break. Sintesi is inspired from Pininfarina’s latest project, made in 2005, Maserati Birdcage 75th. The design for Sintesi was closely supervised by the head of creation department from Pininfarina, Lowie, Vermeersch. We’ll see how this car will be in a almost a month at Geneva Auto Show.

- 4400mm long,
- 1850mm wide,
