Introduction
The 612 Scaglietti was the first ever front-engined V12 Ferrari to feature an all-aluminium space-frame chassis and body panels built entirely in-house in the dedicated Scaglietti light-alloy technologies facility in Modena. The benefits of this construction method include a 60% increase in structural rigidity compared to the previous 456M as well as a significant weight saving of 60 kg despite the new car's larger dimensions.
Design
A genuine four-seater Ferrari, the all-aluminium 612 Scaglietti is the result of an avant-garde design that guarantees the pure, thoroughbred performance demanded by Ferraristi combined with uncompromising driver and passenger comfort.
The new 2+2 model signals a genuine break with the past. Ferrari has changed the rules of the game with the 612 Scaglietti to suit the tastes and needs of a highly sophisticated clientele which now demands elegance and dynamic comfort as well as blistering performance. The 612 Scaglietti is very much a third millennium product, offering a whole new generation of technologies compared to the 2+2 it replaces. In fact, it isn't really a 2+2 at all but more a genuine roomy two-door four-seater that offers its occupants a truly luxurious ambience and supple ride in all driving conditions.
The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti sums up Ferrari's talent for innovation: it has done nothing short of marrying a cabin capable of accommodating four occupants in comfort with the fiery temperament and driving pleasure of a thoroughbred Ferrari.
The 612 Scaglietti offers the kind of dynamic performance (0-100 km/h sprint in just 4.2 seconds), stability and nimble manoeuvrability generally only found in a mid-rear engined car, and still has exceptional amount of space for its passengers and their luggage. The car's performance is enhanced by a performance-oriented handling set-up with active damping and the special CST stability and traction control system, also in use for the very first time on a Ferrari.
The design of the 612 Scaglietti fully expresses the model's new values. In fact, Ferrari made a conceptual choice with Pininfarina to ensure that the four-seater would be a genuine departure from previous Grand Tourer models. It also made a technical decision that the bodywork would have to clothe a completely innovative structural layout. The 612 Scaglietti translates this approach into wonderfully aerodynamic lines. It is softly and elegantly aggressive, sculpted to express the powerful personality of a prestigious high performance, surprisingly roomy car.
Its strong lines run over full, solid surfaces, creating sensual forms that still have the tension of a true thoroughbred. The long scallops on the 612 Scaglietti's flanks lend it character and aerodynamic elegance too. These are borrowed from another famous Ferrari, the 375 MM ordered by Roberto Rossellini as a gift for his wife Ingrid Bergman.
The front wheel arches are very long with a shorter overhang while the rear ones are prominent and muscular to support the C-post. A dihedral enhances the line along the whole upper side. The projector headlights have transparent covers. The 612 Scaglietti's twin Xenon projector headlights also offer a beam that is far superior to traditional halogen lights.
The traditional Ferrari air intake is given an original twist with the wheelarches protruding slightly further than the bonnet. The latter, thanks to a low, pulled-back engine, is set deep between the wheelarches which are the car's dominant volumes and give it an aerodynamic flourish accentuated by the crisp crease.
The rear section is big and solid-looking with the classic high tail lights. This design meets the aerodynamic demands of the slender profile that increases downforce.
Technical Features
As is traditional at the Prancing Horse, the new car also benefits from the most advanced Ferrari engine and transmission technologies as well as highly sophisticated aerodynamic research. The 65-degree V12, which displaces almost six litres, is a specially tailored development of the prestigious Ferrari sports car engines. The V12 represents the very pinnacle of Ferrari engine design, thanks in particular to improved fluid dynamic characteristics of the intake and exhaust manifolds, generating a blistering 540hp at 7250 rpm (almost 100 hp more than the 456M). The result is a car with superb handling that hits speeds of over 320 km/h at full throttle.
The six-speed mechanical gearbox is available with both a manual and a new generation electro-hydraulic set-up, known as the F1A, designed to combine speedy manual gear shifting with comfortable automatic use. This track-derived system also boasts a new generation automatic mode to deliver improved driving comfort.
The 612 Scaglietti is the first Ferrari 12-cylinder to be built entirely from aluminium. It is no coincidence therefore that it has been named after Sergio Scaglietti, a Modenese coachbuilder who worked closely with Enzo Ferrari and sculpted some of the most glorious racing and road cars of the past. The result is that the 612 Scaglietti is 40% lighter than other vehicles of similar dimensions. Its structural rigidity is also excellent, with the complete body around 60% more efficient in terms of weight-rigidity ratio than the 456.
The active damping, variable calibration suspension system offers a high performance yet adaptive set-up. By tuning into the independent active aluminium dampers with coil springs, the system can 'read' the road surface characteristics and instantly evaluate the movements of both the car body and suspension.
The forged aluminium double wishbones front and rear are mounted on aluminium and rubber rose joints. They also have anti-dive and anti-squat geometry.
The ideal balance between handling and comfort can be chosen at the touch a button on the steering wheel: Normal (soft calibration) and Sport (harder, sportier use).
The 612 Scaglietti is the first Ferrari to feature CST electronic stability and traction control system. It aids the 612 Scaglietti's dynamic handling, leaving the driver a great deal of freedom but still intervening in more difficult or riskier situations. The CST offers exceptional performance and safety in all kinds of driving conditions. The system integrates and completes the ABS and ASR functions by also controlling the directional dynamics of the car.
The 612 Scaglietti's braking system is particularly responsive and resistant to fading, making it the perfect partner to the 2+2's blistering performance. It consists of large diameter, drilled, vented discs (345 mm front and 330 mm rear) with four-pot callipers. The ABS system is a Bosch 5.7 generation.
The 612 Scaglietti's wheels boast different diameters for an optimum compromise between performance and comfort (18' front, 19' rear). They are cast in aluminium and a roller-coater is used on the channel for optimal distribution of the material (a sophisticated process that optimises metallurgical qualities of the wheel). This results in a 10% reduction in weight over wheels of similar dimensions and design.
The 612 Scaglietti's big tyres (245/45/18 and 285/40/19) are the result of a great deal of hard work on the Fiorano circuit and out on the road, so that they guarantee just the right level of comfort even in sportier driving conditions.

Interior
The 612 Scaglietti boasts a wonderfully sophisticated sporty interior that reflects its all-aluminium structure and advanced technologies. The pressed or solid aluminium used for the interior becomes a decorative element: it's there on the dash, the air vents, the climate control buttons, the F1A paddles, the pedals and passenger treadplate.
The dashboard offers the driver a cluster of analogue and digital instruments. Alongside the big rev counter is the five inch multifunctional display with three modes: base, trip computer and tyre pressure.
The cabin's ambience is characterised by the use of great swathes of beautifully crafted leather which is hand-stitched and discreetly but incredibly comfortably padded. This is an exclusive, sporty yet well-equipped cabin with top notch climate control and audio systems. The former is dual-zone and automatically regulates in-car temperature, humidity and ventilation levels. Controls on the central console allow both driver and front passenger to set the air flow strengths and desired temperature (17 to 27 'C). The vent clusters (on the dash, doors and central tunnel) guarantee excellent comfort levels to all of the occupants.
The sound system includes radio, CD player and a six-channel digital unit, developed especially for the 612 Scaglietti by Bose'. Cutting edge in the automobile sector, the system offers the same kind of audio quality of a top-flight home entertainment centre. The system boasts three tweeters on the dash, two woofers and two tweeters on the sides of the rear seats, one amplified 100 W bass box in the front and one 100 W amplified subwoofer (diameter 250 mm) in the rear. A microphone in the roof lamp controls the Audio Pilot' which automatically equalises the sound if it senses other background noise or disturbance. Other features offered as standard with the 612 Scaglietti include: a dusk sensor switch which automatically turns on the headlights when activated, a rain sensor for automatic windscreen wiper actioning; an antitheft system with alarm (the immobiliser is controlled by inserting the key which has an inbuilt transponder).
The luggage compartment is generous: 240 litres as opposed to the 456M's 190 litres, and the spare tyre cubby hole can be used for extra luggage too.
The Carrozzeria Scaglietti Personalisation Programme allows clients, in typical Ferrari style, to choose the styling flourishes, finishes and accessories for the car to suit their own tastes and needs, adding a truly 'personal touch' to their 612 Scaglietti.
