With classic styling and a plug-in hybrid drivetrain, this is unlike anything we've ever seen from Ferrari.

It's Ferrari's latest sports car, and one of their most radical ever, with a plug-in hybrid system.

That hybrid is connected to a twin-turbo V6, the first ever production V6 from Ferrari.

Though it wasn't actually a Ferrari, the styling is somewhat reminiscent of the Dino from the early '70s.

The interior, however, is radically new.

Those looking for more raciness can opt for the Assetto Fiorano package.

The colors are certainly striking, inside and out.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
