Ernesto Lasalandra, Ferrariโs Chief Research and Development Officer, said DXCโs role is pivotal in accelerating their software development. “DXC is a market-leading innovator in the automotive industry, enabling us to accelerate the development of our software platform and its components as well as state-of-the-art functionalities and usability,” he explained.
F80 supercar features DXC’s bespoke software
As part of this partnership, DXC contributed to the development of the software for Ferrariโs F80, the automakerโs latest supercar, which debuted in October 2024. The F80, designed for both road and track use, boasts an advanced infotainment system powered by DXCโs custom-built software.
The carโs “digital cockpit” is a standout feature, combining multiple high-resolution displays to create an immersive driving experience.
