Ferrari starts testing hybrid cars
Ferrari president Luca Cordero di Montezemolo has revealed that the company has begun testing of hybrid drivetrain.
The famous automaker is currently testing a 599-based prototype vehicle.

The company said that they are trying to understand how they can benefit from the hybrid technology for their products before they can start implementing it in their on sale models.
Ferrari currently has aimed to reduce its CO2 emissions 40 percent by 2012.
