With production of the extreme Ferrari LaFerrari FXX K strictly limited to a mere 32 units with most of those yet to be produced, seeing one absolutely anywhere is exceptionally rare. Nonetheless, Czech Exotics managed to stumble on a LaFerrari FXX K not testing at the Italian marque’s Fiorano test track but actually on the streets of Maranello!
As the images show, the LaFerrari FXX K was only on the street immediately outside the Ferrari factory. It also featured see-through blue tape across some of the delicate components such as the front splitter, side skirts and headlights.
Beneath the skin, the LaFerrari FXX K features a tuned version of the LaFerrari’s 6.3-litre V12 engine and electric motor powertrain. Rather than the 950 hp delivered by the road car, the LaFerrari FXX K produces a potent 1021 hp and over 664 lb-ft of torque. Of that power, 835 hp comes from the naturally-aspirated V12 while the remaining 188 hp comes from the upgraded electric motor. Mated to this potent powertrain is a seven-speed paddle-shift dual clutch transmission.
To achieve the extra power, the V12 has been installed with new camshafts, revised intake manifolds, a redesigned valve train as well as mechanical tappets. Elsewhere, the exhaust system has been changed while the HY-KERS system now provides four different driving modes. These are Qualify Mode, Long Run, Manual Boost and Fast Charge.
While the Italian firm has yet to announce just how fast the LaFerrari FXX K is, it should hit 100 km/h in around the 2.5 second mark as well as a theoretical top speed well in excess of the 350 km/h achievable by the road car. All told, the LaFerrari FXX K is 194 mm longer and 59 mm wider than the standard car but maintains the same 1116 mm height of the road car.
