List of Ferrari engines

This is a list of internal combustion engines manufactured by Ferrari.

Straight-2

Ferrari was rare among automobile manufacturers in attempting to build a straight-2 automobile engine. The racing prototype never made it to production. [1]

    • 1955 2493 cc – Tipo 116 – prototype

Straight-3

During the 90s Ferrari developed an experimental straight-3 two-stroke engine.

  • Tipo F134
    • 1994 1347 cc – prototype

Straight-4

Lampredi designed a straight-4 engine for Formula Two use. Different versions of this engine were later used in Formula One and sports car racing.

Straight-6

Lampredi also modified his four into a straight-6 for racing use.

V6

Ferrari's Dino project of the late 1956 gave birth to the company's well-known 65° V6 DOHC engines. This Vittorio Jano design formed the basis of the company's modern engines right up through the mid-2000s (decade). Another series of V6 engines was started in 1959 with a 60° V-angle and single overhead camshafts design.

V8

The first V8 engine was derived from a Lancia project, used in D50 F1 racecar. The Dino V8 family lasted from the early 1970s through 2004 when it was replaced by a new Ferrari/Maserati design.

V10

Ferrari used V10 engines only for F1 racecars, between 1996 and 2005.

V12/Flat-12

gollark: It would have more of one if there wasn't the weird indirection insurance introduces.
gollark: Universal healthcare doesn't exactly have a good incentive to be efficient either.
gollark: I don't see why I would want to. Everything just seems to overcharge for no reason.
gollark: I think the NHS is actually cheaper, though, and mostly functions.
gollark: The US just has really broken healthcare.
