In this Hagerty review, we dive into the latest Ferrari Dodici Cilindri, a tribute to the classic era of naturally aspirated engines. With an impressive 819 brake horsepower V12 engine, this prancing horse is a true powerhouse on the road. Ferrari has upped the ante with features like titanium conrods and variable geometry inlet tracks to comply with emissions regulations while maintaining top-notch performance. The eight-speed gearbox ensures lightning-fast shifts and torque smoothing for a seamless surge of acceleration. Despite the impressive stats, some enthusiasts may find the engine's sound slightly tamer compared to its predecessors.
Moving on to the design, the Ferrari Dodici Cilindri strikes a perfect balance between retro charm and futuristic aesthetics. Drawing inspiration from the iconic 365 GTB4, the car boasts a clean yet striking exterior that turns heads wherever it goes. Inside, the cabin offers a range of customization options, although some may find the design a bit cluttered and lacking in cohesion. On the move, active aerodynamics and advanced braking systems contribute to improved handling and downforce, ensuring a thrilling driving experience.
Behind the wheel, the Ferrari Dodici Cilindri delivers a sharp and confident performance, with a slightly softer touch compared to its predecessor. The chassis enhancements, including a stiffer frame and rear-wheel steering, provide exceptional control and agility on the road. Ferrari has aimed to create a more GT-like driving experience with subtle changes in character, prioritizing overall driving enjoyment over sheer performance numbers. While lap times may not be the focus here, the Ferrari Dodici Cilindri offers a compelling blend of power, style, and driving dynamics that will leave enthusiasts craving for more.
