Today, the veil was lifted on a new Ferrari One-Off model from the Special Projects programme: the Ferrari SC40. Designed by Ferrari’s Styling Centre under the direction of Flavio Manzoni, the SC40 is a mid-rear-engined V6 that takes its architecture, chassis, and powertrain from the 296 GTB. The Ferrari SC40 thus joins the most exclusive segment of the range — that of unique, tailor-made cars, designed and built around the desires of a single client, representing the highest expression of Ferrari’s personalisation philosophy.
The styling theme draws inspiration from industrial design, defined by precise geometries and muscular, squared volumes. The proportions feature a long, low nose balanced by a short rear overhang and a high, fixed rear wing — painted in the car’s bespoke SC40 White — which flows from the body’s flanks. The fixed wing extends vertically from the engine cover and merges seamlessly with it, highlighted by a black separation line that enhances the black rear fascia. This area is composed of an open mesh revealing the mechanical and structural components beneath. The V6 engine is showcased through distinctive, smoked Lexan® louvres, which connect visually to the lower air intake and are echoed by smaller louvres carved into the muscular rear wings near the wheelarches. The sculpted rear section is completed by a central exhaust produced in additive manufacturing and featuring titanium and carbon-fibre tips, and by taillights that clearly hint at the 296 GTB which the car is based on.
