Most powerful Ferrari ever? I’ll take two, please.
Ferrari teases its 599 replacement in a web video, claiming the new V-12-powered model will be the “most powerful Ferrari ever.”
Ferrari just rolled out a short teaser video announcing the dawning of “a new era of extreme V-12
cars.” Speculation around the ‘Net indicates that the Italian automaker will be pulling the wraps off of the successor to its 599 grand tourer: the F620 GT.
Expect the new vehicle to carry its V-12 engine–possibly sourced from or based on the V-12 that powers the Ferrari FF shooting brake–up front and under an elongated hood. Like the 599 it aims to replace, the new model will probably also send its power exclusively to the rear-axle. And if this is, in fact, the “most powerful Ferrari ever” as the video claims, it’ll also have to output more than the Ferrari 599 GTO’s 661-horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, but we’re unsure by how much. (Of course, we’re guessing that Ferrari’s not counting the 720-horsepower 599XX in it’s “most powerful” claim, as that limited-run race car wasn’t exactly street legal.)
Check out the video below to hear the V-12 engine sing as the camouflaged vehicle is taken for a test run. Then stay tuned for the new model’s unveiling on February 29th.
