Enzo Ferrari got acquainted with Vittorio Jano in their Alfa Romeo days, and once the Prancing Horse set up shop, the Italian engineer of Hungarian descent gave Il Commendatore a thumpin’ V12 engine with dry-sump lubrication. He’s also responsible for the Dino family of V6 mills phased out in 1974 after loads of race and road-going applications.

Named after Enzo’s first son, who died at the age of 24 due to severe muscular dystrophy, the Dino is making a comeback of sorts in a mid-engined supercar codenamed Progetto F171. Although Ferrari owns the Dino trademark until 2030 in Europe, it’s unknown if the long-discontinued nameplate will be revived for the plug-in hybrid newcomer.
