The 12Cilindri looks quite different from other current Ferrari models. From the front, it reminds us of the iconic 365 GTB/4 Daytona with sharp headlights, DRLs, and a gloss black element between the lights. Ferrari says the new car has a more “sophisticated” design language than the 812Superfast with a focus on clean lines and muscular proportions. There’s plenty of aero trickery going on, too.
For example, there’s active aero elements at the rear that operate between 60 km/h and 300 km/h to increase downforce.
The 12Cilindri is powered by the Italian marque’s flagship 6.5-liter naturally-aspirated V12. The capacity of this engine hasn’t been increased for the new model but modifications have been made to it, allowing it to rev to 9,500 rpm and churn out 820 hp and 678 Nm of torque.

Ferrari says the 12Cilindri Coupe can hit 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds, 200 km/h in 7.9 seconds, and top out at 340 km/h. The Spider is slightly slower, requiring 2.95 seconds to hit 100 km/h and 8.2 seconds to reach 200 km/h. The Coupe weighs 1,560 kg dry while the Spider is 1,620 kg dry.

Like other Ferrari models, the 12Cilindri’s interior is dominated by large screens. Found in the center of the dashboard is a 10.25-inch infotainment display while behind the steering wheel is a massive 15.6-inch driver display. An 8.8-inch display has also been installed for the passenger.
A four-wheel independent steering system has also been installed, like that of the 812 Competizione. Ferrari will sell the new car with Michelin Pilot Sport S5 or Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport tires, both of which have been developed specifically for it and measure 275/35 ZR21 front and 315/35 ZR21 at the rear.
Ferrari 12Cilindri Coupe will start at €395,000 (~$424,000) in Italy while the Spider has been priced from €435,000 (~$467,000).
