Optical illusion in the tunnel

We can see everything on the roads, even what seems unreal at first glance. Thus, a recently published video on social media shows an optical illusion in a tunnel. The video attracted a lot of attention and had over 20 million views.

The person who made this unusual video stopped at the entrance to the tunnel and recorded the illusion that led many drivers to brake. At first glance, the video shows a big hole in the road. However, when the driver approached, it could be noticed that it was a large pond on the left side of the road, which reflected the picture of the wall. Many drivers reacted instinctively and went to the right line.

A driver can be heard saying, “I thought I was high. That is just a pit.” Also, we can see the drivers of Toyota and Audi Q3 who slowly passed through the tunnel witnessing this unusual phenomenon.

This could be a good warning for all drivers to reduce their speed and be careful when entering the tunnel, because this illusion could be real and it can be fatal.

2023 Ferrari Purosangue comes with a V12 engine

A few days ago, Ferrari announced on its twitter profile the arrival of a new model that will be powered by a V12 engine. According to some rumors, the new Ferrari with a V12 engine should debut this summer, and Ferrari is calling it a “game-changer.” It is assumed that it is the Purosangue, Ferrari’s first SUV model, after which nothing will be the same.

The car has been announced as “Heart Of A Thoroughbred,” and it’s a clear link to Purosangue. The video posted on twitter doesn’t reveal much. Only details of the V12 engine with the manufacturer’s name clearly imprinted can be seen.

The car was announced as a surprise, born without compromises. Rumor has it that Ferrari’s first SUV will be a plug-in hybrid powered by a 3.0-liter turbo V6 engine with 654 hp (488 kW) and an electric motor with 164 hp (123 kW), for a total of 818 hp (610 kW) and 546 lb -ft 740 Nm) of torque. Some even mention a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Now it is almost certain that the top performance will have a V12. Good job Ferrari!

Ferari SP48 Unica

Ferrari has just introduced a specially designed model for a special client, the SP48 Unica. It is a specially designed car with a V8 engine based on the F8 Tributo model.

At the front, there is a front grille like the one on the Roma model, which is refreshing compared to the F8 Tributo, as well as the 488 and 458 models. Also, changes in the profile are noticeable. In addition to the new rims, the SP48 Unica has different side suction cups positioned slightly lower, while the black sills take up a slightly larger area.

When it comes to the interior, there are no photos, but it is known that it will be almost identical to the one in the F8 Tributo. This means that on the right side of the dashboard should be SP48 Unica mark, while the seats are covered with laser perforated Alcantara that can be seen in other parts.

For those wondering what lies beneath the hood, according to some information, the car will be powered by a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 720 hp (590 kW) and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque. That’s enough power to push it to 62 mph in just 2.9 seconds, and to 124 mph (200 km / h) in 7.8 seconds with a top speed of 211 mph (340 km / h). Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

This unique car was made for a special Ferrari client who participated in the development of the car, but also had the last word when it comes to decision making.
