The Ferrari 12Cilindri (Type F167; "dodici cilindri", it (Italian for 12 Cylinders); named for its engine[3]) is a two-seater front-engine, rear-wheel-drive grand tourer produced by the Italian sports car manufacturer Ferrari.[4] It was unveiled at Miami Beach on May 3, 2024, to coincide with the 70th anniversary of Ferrari in the American market.[5]
The 12Cilindri was awarded the Car Design Award by ADI in 2025.[6]
Specifications
Engine
The 12Cilindri has a 6,496 cc (6.5 L) F140 V12 engine, the same used in the Ferrari 812 Competizione, and generates a power output of 830 PS (610 kW; 819 hp) at 9,250 rpm and 678 N⋅m (500 lbf⋅ft) of torque at 7,250 rpm.[7]
Wheels
The 12Cilindri has 21-inch wheels at the front and the rear. The tires are either Michelin Pilot Sport S5 or Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport. The brakes are (398mm/front) and (360mm/rear) and are operated by a "brake-by-wire" electronical command. The car has 4-wheel steering.[8]
Aerodynamics
The car includes a mix of active and passive aerodynamics to improve drag coefficient values over the 812 Superfast. On the rear, the car has a spoiler to improve downforce at high speed. The side of the spoiler can tilt up to 10° at 60 km/h (38 mph) to act as aero brake and generating 50 kg of downforce at high speeds.[9]
Performance
Ferrari claims a 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.9 seconds, a 0–200 km/h (0–124 mph) in 7.9 seconds, and a top speed of 340 km/h (211 mph).[10]
Design
The design is a tribute of the Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona with the black band on the hood that cannot be removed or changed to a different color.[11]
The interior is inspired by the Purosangue and the 296 GTB and is the first GT-segment Ferrari to lack an analog gauge.[12]

12Cilindri Manuale
The Ferrari 12Cilindri Manuale is a highly exclusive, limited-run (1,499 units planned) special edition introduced in July 2026. It marks the historic return of the iconic open-gate shifter and three-pedal setup to Maranello for the first time since 2012.[13][14]
Instead of using a traditional vintage mechanical linkage, Ferrari engineered a cutting-edge "Manual By-Wire" system. Underneath, it retains the modern 8-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT) from the standard car but uses digital actuators to perfectly simulate the dynamic feel, mechanical weight, and engagement of a classic manual.[15]
