Ferrari has introduced the 12Cilindri Manuale special edition, a limited series capped at 1499 units globally. This coupé-only model aims to provide an engaging driving experience by blending traditional manual shifting sensations with advanced technology.
The vehicle features Ferrari's new "Manuale by-wire" system, which includes a clutch pedal in the footwell that works in conjunction with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT). Drivers can opt for fully automatic mode or engage a simulated manual gear selection using the clutch pedal and gear shifter.
The "Manuale by-wire" technology translates the clutch pedal's input into precise digital signals for the DCT's control unit. The system is engineered to replicate the mechanical engagement characteristics of a manual gearbox during engagement, disengagement, and synchronization, offering a tactile feedback loop.
Under the hood, the car is powered by a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine producing 830 horsepower and capable of reaching 9500 rpm. Ferrari's personalization program will offer extensive customization options for customers to tailor their vehicles.
