Efficient Of Ferrari LaFerrari
This superb technology relies on charging the batteries in unique ways, two of which are during braking and every time the V12 engine produces excessive torque. In these cases, the excess energy is used rather than being wasted away on the wheels, the surplus torque is sent to the batteries and the energy is stored there.
This decision of sending the torque as energy to the batteries rather than to the wheels, is derived from an optimal algorithm that has been developed primarily for this purpose and is being seen for the first time ever in a car.

Environmental Innovation of Ferrari LaFerrari
LaFerrari is aimed at collectors but it is believed that the advanced solutions that are incorporated into it will gradually trickle down into later Ferraris, and even probably the entire automobile industry. LaFerrari employs a hybrid technology which is called HY-KERS, and which ensures that Ferrari delivers maximum performance at lower emissions.
In fact at 330gm/km of CO2, at the level of power that LaFerrari commands, which, without resorting to electric-only, drive is an environmental feat worthy of recognition. The HY-KERS system is so designed that in the future, electric-only versions of LaFerrari can be developed.
