Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
 |
The most important objective for the 2+2 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti project was to ensure the car would have the handling and road-holding normally expected of Ferrari's more sporty models. To achieve this the body has been built entirely of aluminium, which provides extremely high structural rigidity whilst significantly reducing weight.
The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti comes as standard with a panoramic glass roof which can be dimmed in varying degrees from a dial on the central tunnel. It also has a steering wheel mounted manettino to control damper and clutch settings.
The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti V12 is positioned as far back as possible in the engine compartment to optimise weight distribution. For the first time the TSC - Traction and Stability Control - makes its appearance on a Ferrari, a unit that governs all the car's safety systems (ABS, ASR and EBD) and Skyhook dampers to ensure maximum control. But a Ferrari always puts the driver first and so it's also possible to disengage the TSC and enjoy an exciting session on the circuit. It’s 540bhp V12 propels the car to 62mph in just 4.2s and on to a top speed of over 196mph.
