The first NOVITEC ROSSO tuning stage for the Ferrari F12berlinetta
The Ferrari F12berlinetta has arrived! The first vehicles have just been delivered to their
proud owners and already NOVITEC ROSSO, the world’s leading tuner for the powerhouses
from Maranello, ignites the first tuning stage: The V12 Coupe receives a power upgrade to
561.5 kW / 763 hp, giving it a new top speed of more than 345 km/h. The car’s appearance
and handling are further improved with NOVITEC ROSSO sport springs and high-tech forged
wheels with diameters of up to 22 inches. Exclusive interior appointments round out the product line-up for the two-seater.
Performance optimization and an even sportier exhaust note at the push of a button. The first performance
package for the 6.3-liter V12 of the F12berlinetta leaves the inner workings of the engine untouched. Newly
calibrated mapping for injection and ignition boost peak power output from standard 545 kW / 740 hp to 561.5
kW / 763 hp at 8,500 rpm. Peak torque grows to 703 Nm at 6,300 rpm.
The NOVITEC ROSSO engine management systems does more than just optimize peak power output,
pulling power and throttle response. Raising the redline speed to 8,900 rpm makes the spacing of the gears
of the 7-speed F1 dual-clutch transmission working even better. This also benefits performance as evidenced
by a new top speed in excess of 345 km/h.
The NOVITEC ROSSO performance kit also provides an acoustic highlight: After the conversion the driver of
the F12berlinetta can change the exhaust note of the standard exhaust system from subtle to extremely sporty by turning the Manettino switch on the steering wheel to open or close the butterfly valves in the exhaust.
Additional performance stages NOVITEC ROSSO performance stages for the 12-cylinder engine and an
aerodynamic-enhancement package are currently under development.
Wheels makes cars: This axiom naturally also holds true for the Ferrari F12berlinetta. As an upgrade to
the 20-inch production wheels the NOVITEC ROSSO suspension engineers have developed two customtailored tire/wheel combinations. By choosing a staggered combination of 21-inch wheels in the front and
22-inch wheels in back the engineers not only emphasized the wedge-like shape of the new top-of-the-line
Ferrari, they also refined its handling.
A particular bright spot offered by NOVITEC ROSSO is the high-tech forged wheel for the sports car. Despite
its king-size dimension the NF4 wheel with five delicate double spokes is one of the lightest of its kind in the
world. The resulting reduction in unsprung weight plays a significant role in the car’s even more agile handling.
The NOVITEC ROSSO NF4 9.5Jx21 wheels for the front axle are mounted with Pirelli high-performance tires
in size 255/30 ZR 21. For maximum traction the rear axle is fitted with size 12Jx22 wheels, shod with size
335/25 ZR 22 tires.
Also available for the F12berlinetta are three-piece NOVITEC ROSSO NF3 alloy wheels in sizes 9.5Jx21 in
the front and 12Jx22 on the rear axle, mounted with the same tire sizes as the forged wheels. These wheels
also have a striking design with five double spokes and polished outer flange. As for all other wheels, NOVITEC ROSSO offers individual color schemes, including outer flanges with carbon-fiber coating.
The exclusive appearance can for the time be upgraded further with black NOVITEC ROSSO side markers
that will be complemented with black tail lights in the near future.
NOVITEC ROSSO sport springs lower the ride height of the Ferrari by up to 40 millimeters, lending the car
an arresting appearance and further enhanced handling as the result of a lowered center of gravity.
For added utility the German specialists equip the F12berlinetta with a lifting system for the front axle. At
the push of a button in the cockpit the front of the car can be raised by 40 millimeters to facilitate navigating
obstacles such as underground garage entrance ramps or speed humps. Upon reaching a speed of 80 km/h
the suspension automatically reverts to its original position.
NOVITEC ROSSO also offers total individuality in the interior. The product program offers countless options
from carbon-fiber shift paddles to exclusive Alcantara and leather interiors in any desired color or upholstery
design, each masterfully and meticulously crafted down to the last detail.
