法拉利去年8月向欧盟知识产权局申报新车型。但直到今天才在欧盟专利局网站上曝光新款车型图片，目前关于该车型信息较少，但可以肯定的是该申报车型属于法拉利集团，该车由法拉利设计总监Flavio Manzoni主导设计。目前从外观上看，疑似新款拉法在整体外观上与现款拉法保持一致，在细节上变化很大，大灯改为LED灯条，尾灯同样变得更加纤细。尾灯似与车尾横向过渡相连，让人想起布加迪Chiron尾部条带灯的设计。硕大前进气口采用碳纤维材质，突出的分流器表明该车可能是动力更强劲版本LaFerrari。后保险杠看起来比标准版更具侵略性，排气管设计也由双边四出改为了双边双出。车身侧面设计，变化较大，前轮拱与A柱令人惊奇的连接在一起，而后轮拱也与车顶相连。不过，该车采用普通侧后视镜而非摄像头表明这是一款道路版车型而非概念车。

 

Mysterious LaFerrari hits the patent office

Ferrari applied to register the attached design with the European Union Intellectual Property Office in August last year, but it’s only today the intriguing images have been published on EUIPO’s site. Very little information is available at this point, other than the fact that we know for sure the patent belongs to Ferrari S.p.A. and the car was styled by Flavio Manzoni, none other than the company’s head of design.

 

By the looks of it, we’re dealing with a vehicle largely based on the sold-out LaFerrari coupe, but with very different headlights featuring a thin strip of LEDs. It’s the same story at the back where the taillights are also very slim and appear to be interconnected in the middle by a body-colored piece that makes us think of the Bugatti Chiron’s horizontal light strip.

 

Massive front air vents dipped in carbon fiber and a prominent splitter indicate it might be a beefier version of the LaFerrari. The rear bumper looks substantially more aggressive than what the “regular” model has and it eschews the quad exhaust round tips to make room for an angular setup with the two tips per side stacked on top of each other.

 

The side profile reveals a spectacular connection between the front fenders and the A-pillars as well as an equally impressive linkage between the rear fenders and the roof. The use of conventional side mirrors instead of cameras hints it’s a road-going car rather than a concept, but it’s too early to know for sure.
