Ferrari F12berlinetta

The Ferrari F12berlinetta is a V12-engined grand tourer by Ferrari that serves as the successor to the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano. In 2017, it was succeeded by the Ferrari 812 Superfast.

Description

The Ferrari F12berlinetta uses a 6.3 L (6,262 cc) naturally aspirated 65° Ferrari F140 V12 engine, codenamed F140 FC. The F140 FC produces 730 hp (544 kW) at 8,250 rpm and 509 ft·lb (690 N·m) at 6,000 rpm, making it the third most powerful front-engined Ferrari to date, behind the F12tdf and 812 Superfast. The F12berlinetta's engine has been designed to be more efficient than that of the 599, with the engine management system fitted with Ferrari's HELE start-stop system to reduce fuel consumption when idling. This engine was later modified for use in the Apollo Intensa Emozione hypercar.

The Ferrari F12berlinetta uses a 7-speed dual-clutch automated semi-automatic gearbox with paddle shifters behind the steering wheel. To match the engine's power, the F12berlinetta uses shortened gear ratios.

The F12berlinetta makes use of aerodynamic techniques based on Ferrari's 599XX and Formula One programmes, developed with wind tunnel and CFD testing. A notable feature is the Aero Bridge, which is an air channel that runs from the bonnet, through the flanks and along the sides of the vehicle, creating an effect that increases downforce. Another feature is Active Brake Cooling ducts, which open to direct cooling air only when the brakes heat up, keeping them closed at other times to reduce aerodynamic drag. The F12berlinetta produces 271 lb (123 kg) of downforce at 124 mph (200 km/h) and has a drag coefficient of 0.299.

The Ferrari F12berlinetta can do 0 - 60 mph/97 km/h in 3 seconds, 0 - 124 mph/200 km/h in 8.5 seconds, and a top speed of 211 mph (340 km/h).

The body of the F12berlinetta was designed by the Ferrari Styling Centre and Pininfarina, and shares some styling elements with other recent Ferrari models. This includes a front grille similar to the FF and headlights shared with the FF and 458 Italia. The interior, based on the FF, features new "Frau leather" upholstery with aluminium, Alutex, and carbon fiber trim, and has increased luggage space compared to the 599.

Summary

The Ferrari F12berlinetta is one of ten original Class A cars and has the following statistics:

• Starting rank: 1448
• MAX rank: 1578 (+130)
• MAX+PRO rank: 1643 (+65)
• Tuning Kit bonus: +33
• Stock to MAX+PRO rank difference: 195
• Nitro Efficiency: 7/12/17

Performance

The Ferrari F12berlinetta's acceleration can be described as above-average; while it has a high nitro stat, its weight hinders it from accelerating as quickly as most other cars with similar nitro stats. The car's handling capabilities are also above-average. On the flip side, the F12berlinetta's top speed is below-average, even lower than that of the Spada Codatronca TSS due to having only 4 Pro Kit Levels instead of 5.

The Ferrari F12berlinetta costs 125000 125,000 or 2200 2,200 to purchase (originally just 125000 125,000). As of the 2019 Spring Update, upgrades costs 956000 956,000 while Pro Kits require 236800 236,800, 10 of each Class A Part, 6 Early & Initial Techs each, 16 Mid-Techs and 16 V12 Engines. Given its inferior performance to the Pagani Zonda R (in handling-intense tracks) and Lamborghini Sesto Elemento, the F12berlinetta isn't overly useful, although it can be used for farming Credits in Car Mastery if the player doesn't have the Lamborghini Veneno yet.

Asphalt Overdrive

The Ferrari F12berlinetta appears as a mid Turf 4 car. It was only obtainable from an event and has a x1.5 bonus for jump scores.

Asphalt Nitro

The Ferrari F12berlinetta behaves like its Asphalt 8: Airborne rendition but now is a Class B car.
