The Ferrari F12M was referred to as the F152M and V12 Sport. Moreover,
it seems that the displacement of the 6.3-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine
that powers both the F12 Berlinetta and F12tdf, among others, has been
increased to 6.5 liters. This, along with other possible upgrades, leads to 800
horsepower and 718 Nm of torque. By comparison, the F12 Berlinetta
gets 730 HP and 690 Nm of torque.
Channeling output to the rear wheels is a re-tuned
7-speed dual-clutch transmission, which reportedly allows for 30 percent
quicker upshifts, and 40 percent faster downshifts.
The upcoming Italian supercar will get
rear-wheel steering, which will probably be similar to the system used on the
F12tdf. Contributing to its improved handling is a 'new electric steering
rack'.
Describing a fully-function car that was allegedly
present at the private event in Maranello, FerrariChat's member said that new
LED headlights, and a revised front end, help set it apart. Inside, a new
8.8-inch infotainment system is said to have been added. Ferrari is likely to
release details in the coming weeks, as the F12M, whose name remains
unconfirmed, is believed to debut in Geneva this March.
