F12berlinetta

The Ferrari F12berlinetta is a two-seater, front-engined grand tourer produced by the Italian manufacturer Ferrari. It was unveiled at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, succeeding the 599 GTB Fiorano. The F12berlinetta is characterized by its aggressive styling, powerful V12 engine, and advanced aerodynamics.

The car is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.3-liter V12 engine, producing 730 horsepower and 509 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, enabling the F12berlinetta to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.1 seconds and reach a top speed of over 211 mph. Its chassis is constructed from aluminum alloys, contributing to a relatively low weight for its class.

Ferrari's design philosophy of "form follows function" is evident in the F12berlinetta's aerodynamic design. Features like the "Aerobridge" on the hood and active brake cooling help manage airflow and enhance downforce at high speeds. The interior is designed to be driver-focused, with premium materials and a digital instrument cluster.

In 2017, the F12berlinetta was succeeded by the 812 Superfast, which featured an evolution of the V12 engine and further refinements. The F12berlinetta remains a significant model in Ferrari's history, representing the pinnacle of front-engined V12 performance and design for its era.
