The Ferrari manufacturer takes video games and esports very seriously because, in addition to having its Scuderia Ferrari Velas Esports Team, present in Formula 1 Esports Series, in GT World Challenge Esports (with Assetto Corsa), or even in Le Mans Virtual, the Italian brand is unveiling its first Vision supercar, designed solely for the game Gran Turismo 7.
The Ferrari Vision Gran Turismo is a futuristic supercar, powered by the same 3.0L V6 hybrid engine found in the Ferrari 296 GTBand thehypercar Ferrari 499P who will participate in Le Mans next year. In the game, this V6 engine will offer a power of 1356 hp, against 830 hp for the 296 GTB and 680 hp for the 499P.
Some of you might think this is unnecessary? And yet, Ferrari design director Flavio Manzoni explains: With such freedom, the design of the Ferrari Vision GT allowed us to create a style manifesto for the future of the brand. In other words, future Ferraris will use the design codes of this concept.
Note that, for the occasion, a model of this concept car has been produced on a 1:1 scale and will be exhibited in Maranello alongside the other cars exhibited at the Ferrari museum.
So, if you play Gran Turismo 7 on Playstation, the Ferrari Vision will be available for all game users from December 23 this year.
