Ferrari’s new 963-hp, V12-powered hypercar model named LaFerrari recently made a splash at the Geneva Inter­national Motor Show. Production of this hybrid supercar is being limited to just 499 vehicles.

SKF is supplying a number of solutions for the car, including bearings for front and rear wheels, the gearbox, the engine and essential components for the functioning of the car’s scissor doors. The SKF front wheel hub bearing units feature a light-alloy aluminium knuckle permanently fixed to the bearing outer ring, with a dedicated single-nut design. The complete system delivered by SKF reduces the weight of the complete knuckle and bearing assembly and simplifies wheel changes.
