Ferrari 2021 812 Sberfest GGS

2021 Ferrari For some reason, the auto industry loves alphanumeric model names, even though many of them are a lot more meaningless and less remembered than the perfectly fine names they replaced — look at you, the Kia K5 (formerly Optima). But when it comes to the Ferrari 812 family, the automaker has some justification for giving these big front-engined Tourers a digital label.

The first number relates to the car’s power rating of 800 Cavalli vapore – Italian for horsepower – which translates to 789 horsepower this side of the Atlantic. and 12? That goes with the cylinder count: These stunning horses flaunting a naturally luscious V-12 engine sandwiched between the front fenders so perfectly, Michelangelo could have sculpted them. The engine sends torque exclusively to the rear wheels in both the 812 Superfast Coupe and the upcoming 812 GTS’ retractable hardtop. Once the latter goes on sale in 2021, it will be the first time in more than half a century that Ferrari has given buyers the option of a 12-cylinder convertible. Compared to the Superfast, the GTS has a similarly elegant look, but its rear end has two struts that secure the roof-folding mechanism. According to Ferrari, they “visually embody a sense of being pushed forward.” We can buy that, just like we can buy the name.

The 812 lineup gains a convertible variant. The droptop, dubbed the GTS, has a lot in common with the coupe, including its naturally aspirated V-12 engine, seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and its 211-mph top speed. So you can rest assured that it’s super fast too, even if that’s not part of the name.

The Ferrari 812 Superfast and GTS in one specification feature carbon-ceramic brake rotors, 20-inch wheels and, of course, a richly aromatic leather interior. Buyers can, of course, choose from a range of paint colors, interior trim, and wheel designs, but that’s about the extent of the customization. Which version to buy? There is no wrong choice here. The coupe is lighter, making it the right choice for track rats. It also offers a much larger cargo volume, since its rear end does not need to accommodate the roof panel intermittently. But for those of you who look good with windswept hair and who enjoy long rides on the Pacific Coast Highway or through the Catskills, you’ll want to go with the GTS.

Engine, transmission and performance Ferrari 2021

The Ferrari 812 gets its muscle from a 789-hp 6.5-liter V-12 , which delivers 530 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. True to the coupe’s name, the car is super-fast, with a speed of 211 miles per hour, according to the manufacturer. We still have to drive the 812 convertible, but the coupe occupies a place among the fastest fast cars. In our test, it sprinted to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds. It’s an amazing performance.

Even behind the McLaren 720S, which successfully raced in just 2.7 seconds. Ferrari claims the GTS should be about 60 seconds behind the Superfast, likely due to necessary chassis reinforcements that make the convertible about 265 pounds heavier than the coupe. We found the latter’s handling to be very clever for a nearly two-ton car. A few of our drivers noted that the dual-clutch transmission can provide a few rough shifts at times, but the engine’s note — not overburdened by the turbo or supercharged — makes up for it. This car is superfluous: its exhaust tone begins as an annular squeak and rises to an ear-piercing shriek. The standard carbon-ceramic brakes put a quick and decisive stop to this beast. The coupe only needed 142 feet to stop from 70 mph in our tests.

Ferrari 2021 fuel economy

2021 Ferrari 812 Superfast drains fuel, averaging 12 mpg city and 16 mpg highway according to the EPA standard. The Lamborghini Huracan—the main competitor, albeit with the V-10—is a little better, returning 13 and 18 mpg, respectively, in those areas. During our time with the 812 Superfast, we managed just 11 mpg, two shy of the 13 mpg rating. We haven’t quite gotten our hands on the 812 GTS yet but given its EPA ratings of 12 mpg city and 15 mpg highway, we can’t imagine it would impress in this area. reason for that.

Interior, comfort and cargo

The 812 cabins offer seating for two, with reasonably spacious accommodations, good ergonomics, and modern design. Wanting drivers to embrace the nature of the 812’s grand-ride and keep their hands on the steering wheel at all times, Ferrari ditched the typical steering wheel stems and instead put wiper controls and turn signals on the speakers. In terms of storage space, the coupe outperforms many competitors, offering 18 cubic feet of cargo volume. We can’t say the same for the convertible. The GTS’ folding rooftop equipment reduces that to just seven cubes. You will need to send most of your baggage in the future.

All 812 coupes and convertibles come with speaker stereo, but why listen to that when you have a built-in V-12 soundtrack? An integrated navigation system with voice activation comes standard along with Bluetooth phone pairing and music streaming. Owners have the option to get Apple CarPlay capability, but Android users are not so lucky.

Safety and driver assistance features
