Ferrari has been working on many of these technologies and is showing them off on its latest concept. It’s important to note that this is merely a paper and wood concept and is not slated for production. It also does not appear to have anything to do with the Millechili concept from 2005.
New technologies introduced to the public on the Millechili concept include active aerodynamics, a new type of hybrid drivetrain, adjustable steering wheel and pedal placement and high-tech (and high-cost) carbon fiber construction. Also seeing daylight are low rolling resistance tires and ceramic composite brakes. Many of these technologies have been done before, but not with quite the same intent as what Ferrari is doing."

nah, now way - that's just a pedal car version of the Enzo. I don't even think the wheels are real - they look painted on. And look how small it is compared to the Enzo in the background.
