Ferrari has added a curious new name to its intellectual-property watchlist, and it doesn’t sound like anything currently sitting in the brand’s road-car catalogue.
The name is Ferrari LC67, a compact designation that immediately invites speculation without giving much away.
For now, it’s best treated as a breadcrumb rather than a confirmed future model, but Ferrari’s history of selective naming makes it an interesting one to follow.
At a glance
- Ferrari has filed a trademark application for the LC67 name.
- The application spans automobiles, road and racing cars, parts, accessories, clothing, merchandise and downloadable emojis.
- Ferrari hasn’t confirmed whether LC67 will become a production car, a racing project or a name that never reaches public use.
A name outside Ferrari’s current pattern
LC67 stands apart because it doesn’t follow the familiar rhythm of recent Ferrari road-car names.
It isn’t an obvious continuation of SF90, 296, Purosangue or 12Cilindri, and that makes the filing more intriguing than a routine badge protection exercise.
Ferrari has often used tightly controlled, sometimes unconventional names for limited and highly specific projects, so a designation like LC67 naturally raises questions among collectors and marque watchers.
Still, trademark activity alone doesn’t guarantee a car is coming.
What the filing covers
The LC67 application is broad, covering automobiles including road cars and racing cars.
It also extends to vehicle parts and accessories, which is common when a carmaker wants to protect a name across the ecosystem around a potential model.
Ferrari has also included clothing, merchandise and other branded goods, along with downloadable emojis.
That wider net matters because modern performance brands don’t only protect car names for the badge on the bonnet.
A designation can become part of apparel, collector accessories, digital branding and event material, particularly when the name is attached to something rare or motorsport-adjacent.
The 12Cilindri connection is only a possibility
One theory is that LC67 could have some relationship with the 12Cilindri, Ferrari’s front-engined V12 grand tourer.
That link remains unconfirmed, and the name itself doesn’t provide enough evidence to establish what Ferrari has in mind.
The “67” element may invite enthusiasts to look for historical or technical meaning, but Ferrari has offered no explanation.
At this stage, LC67 could point to a road-going special, a competition project, an internal designation being protected for future flexibility or no public product at all.
Why Ferrari trademark filings attract attention
Ferrari names carry unusual weight because the company’s smallest decisions can signal future collector interest.
Even when nothing is confirmed, a new designation from Maranello can start conversations about limited-series cars, one-off commissions, racing derivatives and future design language.
That’s especially true when the name feels detached from the mainstream model range.
LC67 may turn out to be a minor administrative move, but it sits in the category of Ferrari clues that enthusiasts will keep filed away until the brand decides to show its hand.
For now, Ferrari LC67 is a name with official paperwork behind it and no public identity attached, which is exactly the kind of ambiguity that keeps Maranello interesting.
