Unveiling Ferrari FF 2012

Ferrari has recently unveiled its new all-four-drive model, that pushes the power to all four wheels. This is the first all-4 for Ferrari, with V12, four seats, and a smarter hatchback look. The manufacturers believe that this model with attract not only its usual customers, but also a new species that love to drive in all-weather and on all-roads.

Designed under the supervision of Ferrari’s chief designer, Flavio Manzoni, Ferrari FF 2012 is set to launch later this month in Geneva Auto Show, and will hit the showrooms almost instantly.

The main reason behind launching it during this weather is more people would prefer taking it for skiing vacations uphill due to its all-four-drive feature. The chassis have been improved drastically, with larger wheelbase, with all independent suspensions, Brembo disc brakes, and adjustable dampers.

Another unique feature of the car makes it more attractive. 4RM (Route Motor), known to be used only in Ferrari units, makes use of the electronic system to direct power to its front wheel, when conditions of the roads demand it.

The new Ferrari FF has got 6.2L V12, which is said to have about 22 percent more power than the popular 612. What is more interesting is 7-speed gearbox, with dual-clutch facility.

The efficiency improving techniques that were introduced in California has been harnessed by Ferrari, which is believed to have improved the mileage and overall efficiency by about 10 percent. The engine is capable of producing 650 bhp at 8000 rpm, and a torque of 504lb at 5000 rpm. However, the carbon emission is surprisingly lowered to 360gm/km from the previous 470gm. A similar astonishing improvement has been noticed in fuel efficiency, increasing from 13.8 mpg to 18.3 mpg.

When it comes to comparing the FF with 612, the former beats the latter in almost every aspect. The acceleration from 0 to 62 mpg can be achieved in about 3.3 seconds, while it takes about 3.7 seconds for that in 612. The top speed of 208 mph too beats 612 by about 10 mpg. Despite the usage of all-four-drive drive system, it weighs about 12lbs less than 612.

Although both models seem identical, buyers will most certainly compare the two before any decisions. And if that happens, the clear winner will actually destroy its counterpart.

Ford sues Ferrari over F150 Review

As I’ve been saying before, the Ford F150 is the world’s best selling car for years and years now so it’s not like nobody’s heard of it.

Also as I’ve been saying before, Ferrari launched their 2011 Formula 1 racer and as a celebration of their 150 years of existence they called it the F150.
See the problem?
How about if I told you that Ford has made up the paperwork and submitted it to court against Ferrari for the naming/branding issue.

You see, in being real, not even the dopiest of dopes would have confused the massive Ford F150 pickup they see on a daily basis with a Ferrari F150 racer that they would never see.
That hasn’t put off Ford though, and there’s a very good reason for that. Ford and Ferrari have had their differences over the decades and the most important of which spawned the Ford GT40 and the Ford GT.
Both of these cars are historic landmarks for Ford and will be kept in the hearts of many perhaps more than those of certain Ferrari models.

Getting back to the current pickup versus F1 racing problem, Ferrari immediately replied to the Ford in typical Italian fashion. Apparently the name Ferrari F150 is actually an abbreviation of the real name which is the Ferrari F150h Italia.
Something that hasn’t been mentioned for the most part or at all in some cases by the Italians. Even so, the waters seem to have calmed down now but you never know what tomorrow holds for Ford.

Red may be the iconic color for Ferrari, but not all Ferraris look good in the company’s trademark scarlet shade. Especially the flagship four-seat GTs, like the outgoing 612 Scaglietti and the 456 GT that came before it. But just about every car looks best from the front 3/4 view. So it may have stricken some as a little odd that when Ferrari unveiled the new FF, it only released three initial shots: a front view, a rear view and the side profile… all in red.

Ferrari’s fantastic FF flagship four-seat fastback

Beautiful. Fast. Expensive. There are any of a number of adjectives you could use to describe a Ferrari. Radical is one of them, too. But versatile? Hold on to your hats, because the FF is like no other Ferrari we’ve seen before.
The long-anticipated successor to the 612 Scaglietti takes the stage as Ferrari’s flagship grand tourer. It carries four seats like its predecessor, but elongates the roofline for a shooting brake/hatchback body-style that offers plenty of cabin space and – with those rear seats folded down – as much cargo capacity as a small wagon.
