Why Ferrari wants to leave the past in the past

AutoExec Summary
Critics argue that modern car design has become like Hollywood, with brands reviving classic designs when original ideas run out. Retro designs have seen a resurgence, with Renault, Honda, and Volkswagen drawing inspiration from past hits. Ferrari has incorporated elements of classic models like the Daytona in its new 12Cilindri, but maintains a focus on futuristic design to inspire future generations. The brand’s limited-run Icona models pay tribute to past models with a contemporary interpretation. Retro design is not a priority for Ferrari, as they aim to create innovative designs for the future.
