Ferrari 599 hybrid aka Ferrari 599 HY-KERS is the first Ferrari to go green. Literally as well. It's still a supercar in it's whole glory, but together with a 6.0L V12 petrol engine it contains an electric motor, which can run the hybrid Ferrari totally on it's own or simply add another 100bhp to the already staggering Ferrari's 620bhp power. A combination of these two motors pulls the car forward with around 750Nm which is 150Nm more copared to the Ferrari 599. Electric motor is connected through one of the two clutches and is capable of generating electric power once the Ferrari 599 hybrid is de-accelerating or braking. The power is stored in two very slim lithium-ion batteries which are under an inch thick (about 2cm) and those batteries are hidden below the passengers compartment.
To sum up the result of a Ferrari hybrid technology - with the help of 7-speed DSG gearbox Ferrari 599 HY-KERS is capable of accelerating to more than 200mph (320km/h) and can speed up from 0mph to 65mph (0-100km/h) in just 3.5 seconds or 0-125mph (0-200km/h) in just 10.4 seconds, that's 0.6s faster than a standard, petrol-only Ferrari 599. But the main advantage is the reduction of CO2 emission. EU requires that all new cars must reduce a CO2 emission to 140g/km or below till 2014 and with the help of the Ferrari hybrid technology, developed by engineers who previously worked on the KERS technology in Ferrari F1 team, 599 hybrid has cut it's carbon dioxide emission from 430g/km in 2007 down to 230g/km. That doesn't meet requirements yet, but is a huge step forward from Ferrari.
