2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Gets a Great Combination

Ferrari has just dropped the first official details on the replacement 599 GTB Fiorano which up until now the vehicle has been dubbed the F620 GT, but its official name is the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. This is our first official look at the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, which will replace the aging 599 GTB Fiorano in Ferrari’s lineup after its debut on the world stage at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. While the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta general profile roughly resembles that of its predecessor, there’s not a single bit of sheetmetal shared between the two cars.

2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta is said to be a perfect balance of uncompromising aerodynamics with harmonious proportions interpreting the typical elements of Ferrari’s front-engined V12 cars in an original and innovative way. Styled by longtime design partner Pininfarina, the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta design is a great combination of strong, flowing surfaces and existing design cues. If you think the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta dimensions appears a little smaller than the 599 GTB Fiorano, your eyes aren’t deceiving you.

Preliminary specifications indicate the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta dimensions is about 2 inches shorter, 7/10 of an inch narrower, and 2.5 inches lower than its predecessor. The 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta body is also lighter than the 599 GTB Fiorano. Up front, the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta headlamps bear a resemblance to those of the 458 Italia, while a large egg crate grille — much like that used on the four-wheel-drive FF.

The 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta acceleration may be quick, but as Ferrari’s premiere grand turismo, it can’t skimp on interior amenities. Subsequently, we’re not surprised to learn the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta cabin is covered in liberal amounts of Frau leather and carbon-fiber trim. Photos show an attractive saddle-hued interior, but as always, the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta interior schemes are left to the customer’s discretion and budget.

The 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta is powered by a V12 engine with an impressive output of 740 HP which is an increase of 120 HP over the previous 599 GTB Fiorano. This increase in power also comes with a decrease of the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta fuel economy, which is specifically a 30% reduction. With a total weight of just 3362 lbs, the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta 0-60 mph time will be sprint in just 3.1 seconds, while top speed goes up to over 211 mph.

Competitors 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta

Ferrari holds the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta as the fastest, most powerful road car it’s ever built; that’s certainly true at this point in time, but it may not be for long. We hear the automaker is already preparing an 800-hp (or higher) variant of the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta engine for use in a successor to the fabled Enzo supercar, perhaps in time to debut by the end of this year.

If so, the 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta may lose that crown, but it will remain one of the most powerful and desirable front-engine sports cars available on this planet. 2013 Ferrari F12 Berlinetta will be a direct competitor to the Lamborghini Aventador supercar which is powered by a new 6.5-liter V12 engine with an AWD layout that produces 700 HP 8,250 rpm and 509 lb-ft at 5,500 rpm thus will make the 0-60 mph sprint in just 2.9 seconds.
