Ferrari has unveiled the CZ26, its latest One-Off built under the Special Projects programme for a US client. The Ferrari Design Studio, led by Flavio Manzoni, developed the car around an essential, technology-driven design language rather than the more traditional supercar aesthetic.

Underpinning the CZ26 is the SF90 Stradale, with the One-Off retaining that car’s technical specifications and performance credentials. Ferrari says the goal was a design with an immediately recognizable identity, built on precision and formal purity rather than excess.
A horizontal stance defines the exterior, with a two-box silhouette that gives the car a low, planted look. The central section is shaped like a capsule and sits between four muscular wheel-arch forms, while the body reads as a single continuous surface running from the front fascia to a sharply cut-off rear.
Up front, a full-width grille houses slim, concealed lighting units alongside brake ducts, sensors, and other technical hardware. A vertical leading edge, previously unseen on a Ferrari, sharpens the car’s face. At the rear, cantilevered taillights and a truncated tail keep the design visually light, while a wide horizontal diffuser reinforces the car’s width and stability.
Ferrari describes the overall bodywork as deliberately restrained, with functional elements like side air intakes, the diffuser, and the taillights integrated directly into the surfacing rather than treated as add-ons. Designers pointed to 1970s Italian industrial design as a reference point, reworked for a modern supercar.
Inside, black trim across the roof and pillars gives the cabin a cockpit-like feel that sits distinctly within the body shell, adding to the sense of visual lightness carried over from the exterior.
Color and finish work leaned into a futuristic direction. The body is painted in a custom silver called Argento Veloce, chosen for its liquid-like depth on the surfaces. Rosso Lampante accents break up the silver and highlight the car’s technical details, while pigmented carbon-fiber elements add further texture. The wheels pair a gloss-black finish with a bead-blasted, shot-peened texture, and titanium exhaust tips in a natural finish round out the exterior details.
The interior carries the same theme through a custom black technical fabric, with seat inserts made using additive manufacturing and shaped specifically for this car. Rosso Lampante stitching ties back to the exterior color scheme, and an embroidered CZ26 logo marks the cabin as a one-off build. Matte technical fabric contrasts with satin carbon fiber, while a separate gloss carbon fiber with woven metallic filament adds another layer of texture. Body-colored trim on the door panels and upper dashboard finishes the cabin.
Aerodynamics received attention across the entire car. Ferrari reoriented the central radiator pack and added bypass ducts to rework front-end cooling and airflow, while redesigning the underbody and vortex generators to rebalance downforce. Air curtains built into the outer front bumper sections manage wheel wake to cut drag.
At the rear, a new upper spoiler and a dedicated diffuser were engineered to add downforce without sacrificing efficiency, and the redesigned engine cover includes vents specifically designed to manage heat in the engine bay.
