Ferrari has a habit of making special cars, but the CZ26 takes that idea much further. One customer in the United States wanted something that could not simply be picked from a Ferrari showroom catalogue. The result is a Ferrari with its own shape, cabin and aerodynamic setup, built around the SF90 Stradale.<\/p>\n
The CZ26 was created through Ferrari\u2019s Special Projects programme. Ferrari Design Studio, led by Flavio Manzoni, worked with the customer for about two years.<\/p>\n
The design has a different look from the SF90. The body uses a clean two-box shape with a strong central section and wide wheel arches. The rear ends in a short, sculpted tail. Ferrari says the styling takes some inspiration from Italian industrial design from the 1970s.<\/p>\n
At the front, a wide grille stretches across the nose. It houses slim lighting units, brake cooling openings and sensors. The rear gets cantilevered tail-lamps, a large spoiler, a new diffuser and titanium exhaust tips.<\/p>\n
The silver paint is joined by red details and exposed carbon fibre. The wheels have a gloss black finish with a shot-peened surface.<\/p>\n
Ferrari also spent plenty of time working on airflow.<\/p>\n
These changes help manage cooling, drag and downforce across the car.<\/p>\n
The cabin follows the same custom approach. Black technical fabric covers the interior, while specially made seat inserts add a touch. There is satin carbon fibre, gloss carbon fibre with metallic filaments and body-coloured trim on the doors and dashboard.<\/p>\n
Rosso Lampante details tie the cabin to the exterior. An embroidered CZ26 badge also makes it clear that this is not a regular SF90.<\/p>\n
Underneath the custom body is Ferrari\u2019s plug-in hybrid setup. The CZ26 uses a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 with three electric motors.<\/p>\n
The powertrain gives the CZ26 pace, but the bigger story is its uniqueness. Ferrari has taken the SF90 platform and created a car that looks like nothing else in its range.<\/p>\n
The CZ26 will be shown publicly during Monterey Car Week in California. Ferrari has not revealed how much the one-off cost.<\/p>\n
