FV Frangivento has announced plans to introduce its
new Asfane DieciDieci supercar at The National Automobile Museum in Turin,
Italy on May 30th. The company is keeping details under wraps, but teaser images suggest
the Asfane DieciDieci will be a flamboyantly styled supercar with a long
windscreen that flows into the hood. The teaser sketch also shows a
roof-mounted air intake, rear stabilizer fins and large side scoops.
The wedge-like supercar also has muscular air intakes
and what appears to be a four-tailpipe exhaust system. Other highlights include
slender lighting units and a number of nods to its Italian heritage. According to Ansa.it, the Asfane
DieciDieci will have a hybrid powertrain that produces 996 hp. Details are limited, but the publication says the model will have a
supercharged petrol engine that powers the rear wheels and two electric motors
that power the front wheels. This setup will give the model all-wheel drive and
more power than the Ferrari 812 Superfast.
The publication went on to say the car will be an
evolution of the Asfane concept which debuted at the 2016 Turin Motor Show. It
will ride on an aluminum architecture and feature a handcrafted aluminum and
carbon fiber body. As the pictures suggest, the Asfane DieciDieci isn’t production
ready. Instead, the model is being billed as a production prototype that opens
a “new chapter in the history of FV Frangivento.”
