This car shown here is a Ferrari that you may have never seen or heard of ever before. What you are currently looking at is the 1974 Ferrari Cr 25 by Pininfarina, which was actually the first Pininfarina-Ferrari concept car since the Ferrari Modulo, which was presented in 1970. The Cr 25 was given this specific name thanks to it’s 0.25 coefficient of drag, and one of the main ideas behind creating this concept was to demonstrate that a design could be aerodynamically efficient while still also looking sleek and beautiful. The team of engineers, lead by chief stylist of Carrozzeria Pininfarina (1974-1988), Aldo Brovarone, set out to create a unique Ferrari that would offer fantastic aerodynamic capabilities, and room for four passengers. The chassis of the Cr 25 was identical to the wheelbase of the Ferrari 365 GT4, however, the concept was both wider and lower overall. The plan was to have the Cr 25 run a 4.4L V12 or flat-12, however, the car simply never made it further than the conceptual stage, thus never being fit with a functional engine. Inside the unique concept, a majority of the interior was upholstered in dark brown Alcantara, while the seats, doors, and rear were fitted with bright blue fabric. Also present was a digital dashboard, and a minimalist two-spoke steering wheel, which happily fit right into the 1970’s theme of this wonderful machine. The car was painted both pearlescent white and silver throughout it’s lifetime, and the Cr 25’s current whereabouts are hard to pinpoint, as it hasn’t made any recent appearances at any exhibitions or events. Clearly, the Cr 25 showcases an interesting design that differed from the typical Ferrari of that era, one that had some promising features and elements as well.
