2012 Ferrari FF

[ Friday, January 21st, 2011 | by automotiveroom | under CAR, Ferrari, New Cars ]

The 2012 FF concept car designed by Pininfarina,  the new 2012 FF is not so much an evolution as a revolution. The new 2012 FF model will provide an unprecedented level extremely sporty, powerful character with incredible versatility, superior comfort and refined elegance that both driver and passengers a truly unique driving experience.

the Ferrari FF is powered by a V12, a new 6,262 cc direct injection engine which develops 660 CV at 8,000 rpm and is mated to a transaxle dual-clutch F1 gearbox. It accelerates form 0 to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, so despite being a sort of family Ferrari it is still very very fast.

The FF features the company’s first ever four-wheel drive system. Ferrari’s exclusive, patented 4RM (four-wheel drive) weighs 50 per cent less than a conventional four-wheel drive system, maintaining perfect weight distribution (53 per cent over the rear axle). Completely integrated with the car’s electronic dynamic control systems, the four-wheel drive technology delivers record levels of performance on all terrains and in all conditions via continuous and intelligent predictive torque distribution to all four wheels. The FF is also equipped with the latest magnetorheological damping system (SCM3), as well as the most recent development in carbon-ceramic brakes from Brembo.

Exceptional performance levels come courtesy of the new 6,262 cc direct injection engine which develops 660 CV at 8,000 rpm. In tandem with its transaxle dual-clutch F1 gearbox, stunning acceleration figures (0-100 km/h in 3.7 sec.) are guaranteed. The new model’s class-leading weight-to-power ratio of 2.7 kg/CV, along with its ideal weight distribution, ensures exceptionally responsive handling. The result is that owners will be able to enjoy the FF’s prowess over a wide range of uses: city driving, on low grip or snow-covered surfaces and on the track. Performance aside, Maranello’s latest model also offers standards of passenger space, comfort, in-car spec and equipment previously unheard of in such a high-performance car. It can comfortably accommodate four people and their luggage, thanks to the best cabin space and boot capacity (450 litres extendable to 800) figures in its category, including four-door cars.
