Ferrari released the official images of its latest limited-edition V12. The new model is the expression of Ferrari’s concept of front-engined berlinetta, honing the characteristics of the critically-acclaimed 812 Superfast to a level.
The most striking feature of the car is the latest evolution of Maranello’s legendary 65° V12 engine, which reaches the highest output of any Ferrari road-car engine – 830 cv – and revs to 9,500 rpm. The engine’s key components are redesigned, new exhaust system is added in addition to the new valve timing mechanism. Per Ferrari, another noteworthy engineering achievement is the development work undertaken to reduce the car’s overall weight compared to the 812 Superfast. This was achieved in particular by extensive use of carbon fiber, both on the exterior and in the cockpit. Lastly, the new model premieres version 7.0 of the renowned Side Slip Control vehicle dynamics system.
The aerodynamic of Ferrari V12 is redesigned from the new front air intakes, rear diffuser and exhaust configuration, and the rear screen – which now hosts vortex generators. The design team replaced the glass rear screen with a single-piece aluminum structure. The vortex generators it sports improve the car’s aerodynamic efficiency, but the design solution chosen, which is fully integrated with the roof, simultaneously creates a backbone effect that underscores the car’s sculptural forms. The rear spoiler now looks more imposing: it is higher but the specific design treatment used also makes the tail look very wide, almost horizontal.
The interior architecture reflects that of the 812 Superfast, retaining the main dash and door panel interfaces and volumes, including the signature diapason motif. Along with other elements of the interior, the door panel has been redesigned to reduce weight and, combined with the introduction of the H-gate theme on the tunnel, this lends the cockpit a sportier, more modern edge.
