A New Era with the Dodici Cilindri
Ferrari enthusiasts have a reason to celebrate with the unveiling of the new 12 cylinder powerhouse. Officially named the 12 Cylinder, but fondly referred to as the Dodici Cilindri, this new model from Maranello promises to re-establish Ferrari’s dominance in the high-performance sports car sector. The name ’12 cilindri’ is part of a strategic marketing maneuver, emphasizing the power and prestige associated with Ferrari’s large V12 engines.
Innovative Design and Exceptional Performance
The new Ferrari 12 Cylinder boasts a massive 6.5-liter engine, a distinguishing feature that sets it apart from predecessors like the 812 Superfast or F12. This powerhouse is strategically situated far behind the front axle and nestled beneath a massive clamshell ‘cofango’ bonnet, which visually highlights the engine area. The attention to detail in design includes visual cues reminiscent of the 365 Daytona at the front, and at the rear, it features active aero flaps to enhance aerodynamics. Ferrari has indeed pushed the boundaries of automotive design and performance with this new model.
Driving Experience and Interior Nuances
Inside the 12 Cylinder, Ferrari has embraced technological advancements with extensive screen integration, making the interior modern and functional. However, the power of this vehicle cannot be understated. With 820bhp reaching the rear wheels, drivers may find adjusting the radio a challenge when the tires are not yet warmed up. The power and thrill of driving this model are unmatched, providing an exhilarating experience for any driver.
Exclusive Models: Coupe and Spider
Ferrari has launched both the €390,000 coupe and the €425,000 spider drop-top models simultaneously, a rare move that highlights their confidence in this new design. Ollie Kew from Top Gear had the privilege to visit Ferrari headquarters in Maranello, Italy, and shared his thoughts on this thrilling new V12. The anticipation and excitement surrounding these new models reinforce Ferrari’s lasting influence and innovative spirit in the automotive industry.
