As an Italian supercar brand, 1969 with the birth of Ferrari 365GTS4, it opened the branch of the front V 12 mass production convertible, but this kind of car has never been launched since then, until today's 8 12GTS, which is a full 50 years apart!
Ferrari 8 12 GTS was built by Ferrari Design Center on the basis of 8 12 Superfast. The appearance of the new car basically maintains the design idea of the hardtop model. Two arches are designed above the seat to optimize the aerodynamic passage, and the air guide design adopted by 8 12 Superfast fully optimizes the rear wheel arch cover. The rear diffuser integrates the design of the three-wing aircraft, which further improves the aerodynamic efficiency and airflow stability of the whole vehicle.
As a convertible version of 8 12 Superfast, the whole tail of the new car, including the ceiling, trunk and canopy at the back of the cockpit, has been redesigned. The folding parts of the convertible are hidden under two arches, which are smooth and harmonious as a whole, creating a visual effect of diving forward. When the hardtop convertible structure is folded, the ceiling decoration can be stored under the canopy at the back of the cockpit, and it can be completed within 14 seconds when the speed is lower than 45 km/h. In addition, the rear window of the new Ferrari 8 12 GTS can also be opened electrically, which can play a windproof role when driving the convertible.
The interior basically continues the design of 8 12 Superfast, and the steering wheel of the flat-bottomed car has a large number of buttons and five driving modes to choose from. As a performance machine, 8 12 GTS does not have the popular central control large screen. All its information is displayed on the LCD screens on both sides of the dashboard, with a purely mechanical pointer in the middle. The invariable "black and red" sports collocation, invariable "carbon fiber", invariable "ten thousand turns" dashboard and other classic elements always stimulate your visual nerve and make your journey full of passion. The whole cockpit creates a fighter atmosphere. Do the four air conditioning outlets look like fighter jets? It is still a vector.
In terms of power, the Ferrari 8 12 GTS is equipped with a 6.5V12 naturally aspirated engine. In a sense, only a Ferrari equipped with V 12 engine can be regarded as a "pure" Ferrari. Through the structural optimization and brand-new adjustment of the engine, its maximum power reaches 588kW and its peak torque is 718n m.
In order to ensure the handling performance, 8 12 GTS also has a series of driving control systems, such as ——EPS electric power steering system, Ferrari patented technology version 5.0 sideslip angle control system, PCV Virtral short wheelbase system, etc., to ensure its smooth driving control performance.
After reading the above introduction, you may understand why the price of super running is so high, hundreds or even tens of millions. The reason for the sky-high price is that the super-running output is extremely low, and the low production capacity and low cost will naturally be high; Another factor is that supercar represents the highest technical level of the contemporary automobile industry in terms of design, interior and power configuration, as well as its own brand value, so it has formed a high price.
The ability to develop and produce supercars also represents the level of a country's automobile industry, just as Italy has supercars such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bugatti and Maserati. On the other hand, although China's automobile market occupies an important position in the world, there is still a big gap between the core technologies as the basis of the automobile industry and the developed countries in Europe and America. As a citizen and a car enthusiast, I really hope to start our own super run in the future! Of course, the quality is comparable to Ferrari, but the price can't be 5.3 million. ...
