Operation with natural gas or biomethane makes the compact model economical and more climate-friendly with low emissions. Its turbocharger with variable turbine geometry makes optimal use of the exhaust gas energy for early and harmonious torque development. With this fuel, driving is nearly climate-neutral.
The Truth About Cars

Usually, convertible versions of sports coupes suffer from chassis flex and wind/road noise and the like, but this car doesn’t, at least for the most part – you might get some chassis flex when hitting a severe enough bump, but it’s rare. But otherwise, the LC 500 convertible feels as fresh as ever.

If you order the performance exhaust or go for the Z51 package, those numbers go up to 495 and 470. With a twist of a couple latches off comes the removable carbon fiber roof, letting in the open air. coefficient of drag (C d ) to aid slipping through the wind. Will you notice the extra horsepower and torque–maybe.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. It solves the storage problems faced by the electric utility companies in absorbing and adapting to the highly variable power and energy generated by solar and wind. Distributed Solar and Wind with the PHEV.

Call it Peak ICE—the last hurrah of a technology that governments are ushering off the stage to combat climate change. You switch the mode on by dialing it up on the Ferrari’s dramatic steering wheel, which integrates a cool arc of LED lights on its carbon-fiber rim to cue drivers to shift. And don’t forget sound.

Alternatively they can serve as buffers for renewables such as wind and solar power—whether as part of the grid or as home installations. Because the exhaust system transports only water, it can be made of lightweight polymer. An outer skin made from carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) encases the inner aluminum shell.
