New Ferrari Dino on the way?

It has been hinted by Ferrari that and new Dino is in the works. The original vehicle known as the Dino 206 GT ( 1968 - 69 ) and then 246 GT (1969-1974 ), was named after Enzo Ferrari's deceased son and did not while it was made by Ferrari, it did not carry the Ferrari name. It was powered by a 2.0 and then a 2.4 V6.

A later and some would say less attractive Dino 308 GT4 with a 3.0 V8 was produced from 1973-1976 and then branded as a Ferrari from 1976 - 1980.

It is expected that the new Dino, will be powered by a 500hp twin turbo V6 and will run from 0-60mph in 3.5 seconds.

Will the new vehicle, if made, be known simply at the Dino, or will it be the Ferrari Dino? Time will tell, but if it looks anything like the rendering above, we say make it.
