It was believed to be on hold for over a decade, and yet Ferrari has once again defied the odds. The atmospheric V12, the timeless symbol of the prancing horse brand, is back in a masterful embodiment: the Ferrari 12 Cilindri. A vibrant tribute to this exceptional engine, this creation promises to leave a lasting impression on minds and hearts. With its 830 horsepower and a diet culminating in 9,500 rpm, this Ferrari stands out as a true mechanical ode, perhaps the last of its kind.
At first glance, the 12 Cilindri imposes its presence. Sober elegance and contained power, its style evokes the heyday of the 1960s, while integrating modern technologies. At the front, the black transverse headband that connects the optics is a direct reference to the iconic 365 Daytona, infusing a touch of nostalgia.
No more stylistic exuberances! Make way for pure lines: a ultra-flat hood, a compact stern, and minimalist LED headlights. However, Ferrari does not neglect aerodynamics: active panels deploy at the rear to generate 50 kg of support, showing that simplicity and performance can coexist.
Inside, the contrast with the outside is striking. If we find a retro touch with the H-grid selector, everything else exudes modernity. Two digital screens, integrated under elegant caps, offer the driver and passenger a total immersion in the Ferrari universe. Inspired by Purosangue, this high-tech interior reaffirms Maranello's attention to detail, without ever sacrificing driving pleasure.
The heart of this 12 Cilindri remains its 6.5 liter naturally aspirated V12, a true mechanical masterpiece. With 830 horsepower and a red zone reaching peaks, this engine propels the model from 0 to 100 km/h by 2.9 seconds, with a top speed greater than 340 km/h. Even with a slight overweight (+35 kg compared to the 812 Superfast), the sensations remain true to Ferrari DNA: raw, authentic, unforgettable.
Ferrari, true to its legendary exclusivity, positions the 12 Cilindri as a rare jewel. Available in version Berlinetta (€395,000) or Spider (€435,000), this mechanical work is aimed at an elite ready to afford much more than a car: a part of the Ferrari history.
With the 12 Cilindri, Ferrari has signed a true declaration of love for its V12. This masterpiece, at the crossroads of nostalgia and innovation, sounds like a flamboyant goodbye to an era that will have made generations dream. One thing is certain: the Ferrari myth will remain eternal.
Even before it enters the concierge desk, your car has already found its place in the Carsup universe. Not only in one location, but at the heart of evolving knowledge: a knowledge base that connects mechanical passion to technical rigor, data to humans.
Passing the mythical 500 km/h mark is not just a question of speed. It is a challenge that involves the most advanced engineering, the most sophisticated aerodynamics and a detailed understanding of the physical forces that are exerted at these mechanical altitudes. For two decades, a handful of manufacturers have been competing on this extreme terrain: Bugatti, Koenigsegg, SSC, and more recently the Chinese giant BYD with its Yangwang division.
It all starts with a desire, which is sometimes long overdue. That Ferrari that you've been looking at for years, or that Porsche inherited from a loved one sleeping under a cover. The desire is there, but time is lacking. And it is often at this precise moment that Carsup makes history.
