FERRARI F12 BERLINETTA

Oh yeah once theres a new sports car i'm on the scene here we go!

The F12berlinetta’s 200-bar, direct-injection 6262 cc 65° V12 delivers
absolutely unprecedented performance for a naturally aspirated 12-cylinder
engine in terms of both power and revs. It has a maximum power output of 740 CV
at 8250 rpm, while its specific power output is 118 CV/l, a record for this kind
of engine. Responsiveness and strong pick-up are assured by maximum torque of
690 Nm, 80 per cent of which is already on tap at 2500 rpm.

Exceptional
strides have also been made with regard to fuel consumption and emissions both
of which have been slashed by 30% to 15l/100 km and 350 g/km of CO2, making the
F12berlinetta a benchmark for its reference segment.

Its wheelbase is
also shorter, the engine and driver seat have been lowered and the rear in more
compact thanks to the new suspension and gearbox layout. It is a shorter, lower
and narrower car than the previous V12 coupé. Weight distribution is ideal too
(54% at the rear) while the centre of gravity is lower and has been moved
rearwards in the chassis

Fiorano Lap (m,s)	1'23'' The 6262cc 65-degree V12 is the most powerful naturally-aspirated V12 yet. Maximum power is 740CV for a specific output of 118CV per litre and 690 Nm of torque. 80 per cent of that torque figure is on tap from 2500 rpm, giving massive acceleration right the way up to the 8700 rpm red line. Just like Ferrari's F1 engines, the V12 boasts very low levels of inertia to ensure that the engine revs rapidly. Development concentrated on a number of areas, including the compression ratio which has been increased to 13.5:1. The lower crankcase was completely redesigned to help reduce the car's centre of gravity (the engine sits 30mm lower and further back in the chassis compared to the 599 GTB Fiorano). The V12 feeds power to the rear wheels through the dual-clutch F1 transmission which gives instantaneous gear shifts. The transmission features close gear ratios developed specifically to suit the car's performance and is integrated with the electronic E-Diff to reduce overall weight. Internal friction losses have been reduced to a minimum and innovative technologies have been employed (such as the multi-spark ignition function which implements three successive sparks of different intensity and duration) to reduce fuel consumption by 30 per cent compared to the 599 GTB Fiorano depsite the increase in power and torque. http://www.ferrari.com/english/gt_sport%20cars/currentrange/f12berlinetta/Pages/f12berlinetta.aspx
