Ferrari 812 Superfast - The fastest and the most powerful Ferrari yet
18 Feb 2017|2,717 views
Ferrari has selected the 87th edition of the Geneva International Motor Show for the world premiere of the new 12-cylinder berlinetta, the Ferrari 812 Superfast, the most powerful and fastest Ferrari in the marque's history. This new car not only introduces a plethora of innovative features but is also particularly significant as the V12 series marked the official start of the glorious Prancing Horse story in 1947, 70 years ago this year.
It is aimed at clients demanding the most powerful and exclusive Ferrari in the range - an uncompromising sports car that will deliver exhilarating driving both on road and track yet also be comfortable enough to allow its owners to enjoy it as an all-round experience.
Powered by a 6.5-litre V12 engine that unleashes 788bhp, the new 812 Superfast is the new benchmark in the mid-front-engined sports car segment, achieving maximum power output at 8,500rpm. The engine's power is underscored by a full, rich exhaust sound that exploits the accoustic clout delivered by its increased displacement.
Maximum torque is 718Nm at 7,000rpm, a significant 80 percent of which is already available at 3,500rpm. This improves both driveability and pick up even at low revs.
The supercar also sports a dual-clutch transmission that has specific gear ratios which, combined with shorter up and down-shifting times between gears, sharpens throttle response further.
Seen in silhouette, the 812 Superfast has a fastback sleekness: a two-box design with a high tail reminiscent of the glorious 365 GTB4 of 1969. The design of the flanks visually shortens the tail and is characterised by impressively muscular wheelarches. The car is also launched in a special new colour - Rosso Settana - which marks the company's 70th anniversary.
The cabin has been given a sportier, more radical look with the main elements seeming to float, creating an effect of both thoroughbred racing eagerness and lean elegance. New, sportier and ergonomic seats feature alongside the new Human Machine Interface (HMI), including new steering wheel and instrument clusters and the latest infotainment and air-conditioning units.

The 812 Superfast thus ushers in a new era in Ferrari 12-cylinder history, in doing so building on the invaluable legacies of the F12berlinetta and the F12tdf.
