the ferrari 812 superfast

Engine

The 6.5-litre F140 GA V12 engine


The 812 Superfast has a 6,496 cc (6.5 L) F140 GA V12, an enlarged version of the
6.3-litre engine used in the F12berlinetta. It generates a power output of 800 PS
(588 kW; 789 hp) at 8,500 rpm and 718 N⋅m (530 lb⋅ft) of torque at 7,000 rpm.[11]
[12] According to Ferrari in 2018, the 812 Superfast's engine was, at the time, the
most powerful naturally aspirated production car engine ever made. It does not
feature turbocharging or hybrid technology. Cars built in 2019 or before were not
fitted with petrol particulate filters, whereas cars built in 2020 or after are now
fitted with the emissions device.

Transmission
The transmission for the 812 Superfast is a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox
manufactured for Ferrari by Getrag, based on the gearbox used in the 458.[13]

Wheels
The 812 Superfast has 20-inch wheels at the front and the rear. The tires are
Pirelli P Zero with codes of 275/35 ZR 20 for the front tires and 315/35 ZR 20 for
the rear.[7] The brakes are carbon-ceramic Brembo Extreme Design disc brakes, which
Ferrari claims have 5.8% improved braking performance from 100 km/h to 0 km/h as
compared to the F12berlinetta.[14] The brakes are borrowed from the LaFerrari, with
a diameter of 398 mm (15.7 in) at the front and 360 mm (14.2 in) at the rear.

Aerodynamics
The car includes a mix of active and passive aerodynamics to improve drag
coefficient values over the F12berlinetta. The front of the car is designed to
increase downforce and includes intakes for front brake cooling, as well as ducts
to increase underbody air flow. The bonnet of the car also has air bypasses to move
air through to the side of the car for additional downforce and aero efficiency.
The rear diffuser of the 812 Superfast has active flaps that can open up at high
speeds to reduce drag.

Performance
Ferrari claims that the 812 Superfast has a top speed of 340 km/h (211 mph) with a
0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) acceleration time of 2.9 seconds.[1] The car has a power to
weight ratio of 2.18 kg (4.81 lb) per horsepower (PS). The 812 Superfast is the
first Ferrari equipped with EPS (Electronic Power Steering). It also shares the
rear-wheel-steering system (Virtual Short Wheelbase 2.0) borrowed from the limited
edition F12 TDF. The weight distribution of the car is 47% front, 53% rear. The car
has recorded a laptime of 1:21.50 around the Fiorano racetrack, 0.50 seconds behind
the more track-focused F12tdf.[15]

Design
The design is based on the F12berlinetta, with some new styling cues like full LED
headlamps, air vents on the bonnet, quad circular taillights, and a body-colored
rear diffuser. The two-box, high tail design of the car is intended to resemble
that of the 365 GTB/4 Daytona, a Pininfarina design, though the car was designed at
the Ferrari Styling Center.[16]

The interior of the 812 Superfast takes inspiration from both the preceding
F12berlinetta and the interior of the LaFerrari, especially the shape and position
of the air vents and the contours of the dashboard.

As part of the Ferrari's flagship model design, the 812 Superfast's center control
stack continues to lack a central infotainment display featured in entry-level
models such as the GTC4Lusso and Portofino, retaining only a small temperature
display for the climate control system and splitting all vehicular status
information displays among the driver's multifunction instrument cluster, as well
as the passenger-side touchscreen stack display above the glove compartment area.

As with certain previous models, the 812 Superfast can be ordered with specially-
designed, model name-tagged, multi-piece luggage set which fit into the vehicle's
rear trunk.

Variants
812 GTS
Unveiled in September 2019, the Ferrari 812 GTS is the open top version of the 812
Superfast. This marks the first front-engine V12 series production convertible
model offered by Ferrari in 50 years,[17] as the convertible variants of the 550,
the 575 and the 599 were limited edition models meant for special customers only.

The large rear buttresses present at the rear hold the folding hard top roof under
a tonneau cover present between them when not in use. The electronically operated
hard top takes 14 seconds for operation and is operable at speeds up to 45 km/h (28
mph).

The GTS weighs 75 kg (165 lb) more than the Superfast due to chassis reinforcing
components but maintains equal performance. The mechanical components including the
engine remain the same as the Superfast except for the transmission which has
shorter gear ratios to improve the car's response to throttle inputs. The engine's
high-pressure injection system reduces the number of particles that are emitted
before the catalytic converter warms up. There is also a new gasoline particulate
filter and a stop-start system to improve fuel economy. Other features shared with
the Superfast include the Manettino dial, side-slip angle control and variable
steering weight. The car has been aerodynamically refined in order to eliminate any
turbulence arising from the loss of a fixed roof.[18][17]
