Globally unveiled in May 2024, the 12Cilindri succeeded the Ferrari 812 in Ferrari’s lineup. The car retained the 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 with power and torque output similar to the limited-run 812 Competizione.

The 12Cilindri is powered by Ferrari's fabled 12-cylinder engine
On the cosmetic front, the 12Cilindri’s design is a tribute to the iconic Ferrari 365 GTB/4 ‘Daytona’. The new 12Cilindri is longer, wider and marginally taller than the model it replaces, though the wheelbase has been shortened by 20 mm over its predecessor. Up front, the car gets rectangular headlamps merged with a sash black element that sits at the tip of the low-set nose. The long bonnet sports a pair of horseshoe vents that flank the curvy front fenders. The fastback-style silhouette of the 12Cilindri is in line with its predecessor. Towards the rear, the car gets a pair of rising buttresses and blacked-out rear glass, flanked by side panels finished in black on either end. The slim strip-like tail lamps are an element shared with other newer Ferraris while the prominent diffuser low down on the bumper is finished in exposed carbon fibre.

At the centre is a low-set 10.25-inch touchscreen that handles infotainment and climate control-related functions. The car also gets a dedicated 8.8-inch passenger-side display showing instrumentation data, along with a 15.6-inch digital instruments display.

The highlight of the car however is the engine under the hood. The 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 engine sits at the heart of the 12Cilindri and as its predecessor, there is no hybrid assistance or turbocharging. The unit borrows much of the tech used in the 812 Competizione’s V12 which means that it redlines at 9,500 rpm with a peak output of 819 bhp arriving at 9,250 rpm – identical to the Competizione. Peak torque of 678 Nm kicks in at 7,250 rpm. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox that Ferrari says shifts 30 per cent faster than the unit in previous V12 Berlinetta models.
