Enzo Interior

The Ferrari Enzo Interior The Enzo inaugurates a new generation for Ferrari cars even where the styling of the interior is concerned: the so-called man-machine interface acquires greater effectiveness, and the driver is placed in the best possible condition to exploit the car's extreme performance.

The "pure, hard" spirit of the car, the limited space, and the aim of keeping things as light as possible suggested an extremely functional style for the interior. All of the main surfaces are made from unadorned carbon fibre.

The driver's seat is an essential part of the driving position structure. A new racing seat was developed, made of carbon fibre and designed to give greater rigidity and to make the driving sensation more precise, filtering even the tiniest flexion in the seat system as much as possible. The aim was to give the Enzo driver the greatest possible awareness of the car's behaviour. Seat inclination is adjusted by a double Bowden lever system, and includes a lever control on the seat cushion, the only system of its kind in the field of fast sports car seats. The driver can also adjust the squab-seat combination to obtain a perfect driving posture.

The Ferrari Enzo Optimises the Flow of Information One of the main goals for the interior of the Enzo was to develop the concept of a facia and steering wheel that could optimise the flow of information and the way controls were activated by the driver, to make the so-called man-machine interface much more efficient. One element that helped in this direction is the completely new steering wheel, the upper part of which is made of carbon and bevelled so as not to limit external visibility. It contains a series of LEDs which duplicate the telltales and the rev counter, and the lower part has been optimised to make more space for the driver.

Like a Formula 1 steering wheel, it also includes a large number of controls (six) on either side, linked to the main vehicle control functions: vehicle lift, reverse, exclusion/re-engagement ASR, integrated Sport/Race strategy, display configuration.

The control panel is tailor-made for the driver and includes technical features that are easily accessible from the wheel grip, and a compact, mixed analogue-digital instrument panel, in the shape of a reconfigurable graphic screen.

The Ferrari Enzo Pedals System Because the project only envisages a version with the F1 gearbox, there are only two pedals (accelerator and brake) which were optimised functionally and stylistically. There are numerous settings, for a total of 16 different configurations.
