Ferrari BR20

Ferrari has introduced the BR20 coupe inspired by mid-20th century Ferrari coupes with features reminiscent of the 410 Superamerica and 500 Superfast models.

It is designed as a unique project for a special client, and is based on the modified GTC4 Lusso platform that was recently discontinued. The front has been redesigned and expanded with a front grille featuring unique horizontal slats and a carbon top element that connects it to other recent One-Off models.

The platform on which it was made is longer than the original. The BR20 is equipped with a new front grille with a carbon fiber insert, triangular intakes on front bumpers, large air outlets on the bonnet, carbon fiber side skirt extensions and a new diffuser.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in dark brown leather with white stitching, while the rear seats have been removed. The rear bench and luggage compartment are also upholstered in brown leather with oak accessories.

The Ferrari BR20 is powered by the same engine as the GTC4 Lusso. It is a 6.3-liter V12 engine with 681 hp (501 kW) and 514 lb-ft (697 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It rides on 20 inch wheels.

The name of the owner as well as the price of this unique beast are not known.

Mate Rimac allowed the students to see some of the key parts of Nevera

It is not common for students to be able to see some of the key parts of a supercar live. Exactly such an opportunity was provided to the students by Mate Rimac so that they could get to know the Rimac Nevera electric car better and learn something new.

On his Facebook profile, Rimac wrote:


“10 years ago I was told at the faculty that it is impossible to produce a car in Croatia. And they were right – it was. I am proud that in these 10 years we have built a team of over 1,000 people with over 600 engineers who are able to develop almost complete car and its key elements – here, in Croatia.Today we closely cooperate with many faculties, both in Croatia and outside.A large number of our engineers come from FSB in Zagreb, so we have therefore decided to mark this connection and cooperation – on our corner. Some of the key elements of Nevera are exhibited there, including a carbon monocoque chassis that has passed various crash tests.Students here can also download CAD data of chassis and other elements – transparency that no other In addition, we made an effort and tidy up the whole part so that it is functional to work and nice to see.
I think this is a great opportunity for students to be able to directly see what exactly they can do after college – just a few miles away. “

Nevera is fully manufactured in Croatia. It has a lithium-manganese-nickel battery with 6,960 cells and a capacity of 120kWh. Thanks to four individually powered wheels, the Nevera has 1,914 hp and 1,741 lb-ft of torque, allowing it to reach 62 mph in just 1.97 seconds with a top speed of 258 mph (413 km / h). Only 150 units will be produced at a cost of € 2 million.
