Ferrari KC23: Track only beast
The KC23 may look new, but it uses the tried and tested chassis of the 488 GT3 Evo 2020. To that end, its bespoke bodywork houses a 3.9-litre twin-turbo V capable of pushing out 592bhp and 516lb ft of torque to the rear wheels. Little wonder the KC23 is designed exclusively for non-competitive track use only.
To these eyes the KC23 looks like Maranello’s take on Porsche’s recent 935 homage, but it’s the vision of the Ferrari Styling Centre led by Flavio Manzoni. Every panel of the 488 Evo 2020 has been redesigned whilst retaining the downforce and cooling capabilities of the original bodywork. There’s active aero now too: a fence behind the front wheels helps balance the downforce from the huge rear wing.
Inside Ferrari engineers have kept the KC23 as true to the 488 Evo as possible, with the addition of extra comforts for the passenger side – not a requirement of the original car.
