Ferrari 612

The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti is a Automobile of exception sold since 2004 per 230.000 €. It replaces the Ferrari 456.

The access to the true places back by the two doors is facilitated by the automatic and electric projection of the two front seats.

The engine is in central longitudinal position before (behind the front axle). It is V12 with 60° and four valves per cylinder, of 5,7 liters cubic capacity. It develops 540 horses with 7.250 tr/min. The couple is of 600 Nm with 5.250 tr/min. In addition, the gear box, of type sequential or manual, is assembled right in front of the back bridge for a better balancing of the masses (it is the principle of the Transaxle, which one finds inter alia on the Chevrolet Corvette C6). Moreover, in spite of the rather imposing engine, the static distribution of the masses on axles is of 46,4% on before and of 53,6% on the back.

This car traverses, according to certain measurements, the 0 to 100 km/h in 4,2 seconds, the 1.000 meters standing start in only 22 seconds and on the German highways reaches more than 315 km/h out of top speed. Consumption is of at least 20 liters to the hundred kilometers.

For the first time on Ferrari a system of antidérapage and antipatinage takes part to maintain 1.840 kg especially aluminum (4,90 meters length and 1,96 meter broad). Its name (Scaglietti) refers to an Italian carriage-builder now missing, who precisely largely made use of aluminum in the construction of his body.
