Ferrari 812 Superfast launched in India at Rs. 5.20 crore

Ferrari has launched the 812 Superfast in India at a price starting from Rs. 5.20 crore (ex-showroom).

The 812 Superfast is a replacement of the F12 Berlinetta. Designed at the Ferrari Styling Centre in Maranello, Italy, the 812 Superfast is 4,657 mm long, 1,971 mm wide and 1,276 mm tall. The two-seater sports car gets a wide front air dam, sharp lines on the hood and doors and a pair of twin circular tail lamps. The rear gets a quad exhaust setup with a diffuser and has drawn design inspiration from the 365 GTB4 (Daytona) of 1969. The interiors continue to offer the typical Ferrari layout with a horizontally designed dashboard, circular AC vents and a new steering wheel with almost all buttons for the car control.

The 812 Superfast comes with a mid-front mounted, naturally aspirated, 6.5-litre V12 engine. It puts out 789 BHP @ 8,500 rpm, which is around 60 BHP more than the model it replaces with a maximum torque of 718 Nm @ 7,000 rpm. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox. Ferrari claims that the 812 Superfast can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 2.9 seconds, while its top speed has been limited to 340 km/h.

The 812 Superfast is also the first Ferrari to get an electric power steering (EPS). Other features and electronic aids include rear wheel steering, traction control (F1-trac), side slip control and a third-generation e-diff. The car made its global debut at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show.
