Ferrari is known for manufacturing cars that pack unmatchable muscle, impeccable design and astonishing looks. Most of its cars dressed in glossy red have been a dream of many and a symbol of pride for some of those who could possibly afford it.
However, the times are changing and as world exhausts its non-renewable resources, the focus is going to shift to cars that harness their muscle from renewable sources and are tender to the environment.
Automakers are still a long way from making an electric race car comparable in performance and mileage to the fuel-based cars, but today or tomorrow we have to reach there and many designers have used their skill and imagination for recommending cars of the future to manufacturers like Ferrari. Here are the 2nd-row of five Ferrari eco-friendly concept car.

The rear wing, positioned horizontally on the car’s roof, is automatically activated at speeds higher than 200 km/h, revealing an air intake that allows to better cool the engine.
7. Ferrari Millenio
The Ferrari Millenio created by Marko Petrovic, as the name might allude, is a futuristic super-car concept that features a complex combination of materials and technologies that we can hope will become a serious reality before the end of the next millenium.

The two-seater includes a buckypaper reinforced body that is stronger than steel and lighter than carbon fiber as well as dual electric engines that can be recharged via solar panels or through an inductive power transfer system.
This car gives an illusion in its way of very complex assembling process (the front lights look like they're floating and aren't attached). This two-seater includes buckypaper and a silicon body, resulting in a strong protective shell.
8. Ferrari Imola
John Mark Vicente’s Ferrari Imola concept is inspired by the Ferrari F70 created by Randy Rodriguez and the Dino Competizione by Sacha Selipanov. Imola is a spider without windscreen and has a future hybrid Ferrari V6 engine.

The designer used triangular andand trapezoidal shapes to create the head and tail lights and the grille. The enormous rims and semi-slick tires underline the aggressiveness of the vehicle.
9. Ferrari EGO
The ferrari EGO Concept is a study of a light, compact sportscar focused on emotional content and driving sensations. It was designed by Salvatore Simonetti, Massimiliano Petrachi, Vincenzo Morlino and Luca Zunino.
The EGO (Emotional Generation One) Concept is a lightweight hypercar for the year 2025, that aims at combining extreme performances and strong emotional content with the tradition and beauty of Ferraris. The sources of inspiration included the P4/5 and the legendary P3.

The project was inspired by three elements: the egg, which symbolizes the self-centered concept, the car’s mechanic “heart” – a centrally positioned V8 Biturbo – and the connection between man and the machine. The “egg” idea translates into a advanced, protective cockpit made of carbon fiber and connected with the suspension through a tubular chassis that extends to the center tunnel.
10. Ferrari Monza
Part motorcycle, part dragonfly, the Ferrari Monza Concept could just be the single-manned roadster of the future. This open-cockpit street beast transforms at higher speeds, with the rear fins lifting off the ground to reduce friction and drag.

As the rear section lifts, this four-wheeler becomes two, making this Monza roadster a bird in flight with its front tires planted firmly on the pavement. This revolutionary Ferrari concept, designed by Iman Maghsoudi, is cleverly programmed to drive on its own. This red speeding beast changes shape resembling an airfoil for maximum aerodynamics.
