Ferrari
has released photos and information on a limited-edition
model scheduled to premier in January at the Los Angeles
and Detroit Auto Shows. The Pininfarina-designed Ferrari
Superamerica combines Ferrari 12-cylinder Berlinetta performance
with a highly original, innovative take on the convertible
concept.
The
Superamerica is the first production car to adopt an innovative
rotating roof movement in combination with electrochromic
technology developed exclusively for glass surfaces of
these dimensions, with Saint Gobain.

The
Fioravanti-patented rotating roof concept allows the Superamerica
driver to electrically drop the top in 10 seconds flat,
making it the world's fastest convertible berlinetta (199-mph
top speed).
Derived from the 575M Maranello, the Superamerica is available
with either an F1-style or manual gearbox. Its big 12-cylinder
engine has been boosted to deliver 540 hp too. The new
car can also be fitted with the GTC Handling package which
offers Ferrari's very latest high-tech features including
carbon ceramic brakes.
The Superamerica's unusual electric roof has been dubbed
Revocromico to highlight the unique combination of its
rearward rotation movement and electrochromic technology.
It has a carbon-fibre structure and the boot capacity
remains unchanged whether the roof is open or closed too.
The glass rear window also acts as a highly effective
wind deflector when the roof is open.
