The manual diligently advises drivers to “avoid sharp and frequent accelerations” and to upshift at “only 2/3rds of the speed permitted for each gear” or, say, a modest 114 mph in fifth. Even Ferrari’s PR man had to stifle a snigger. Not because of the wounded English, but because most drivers who are worried about their carbon footprint aren’t trying to plug themselves into an Italian two-seater whose 611-hp V-12 has a 10-mpg fuel fetish.
