Ferrari’s 599 successor (F152) spotted

Our Teamspeed spies bring us a nice present this morning catching the Ferrari 599 successor testing out and about. The new Ferrari is codenamed F152, but we have heard it referred to as the F620 as well several times.

This new Ferrari GT will retain the front engine placement and use a version of the 6.3 liter V12, delivering more than 700 horsepower. This will make it more powerful then the Ferrari FF and the 599 GTO. It will even be more powerful then the mighty Lamborghini Aventador! Power will be delivered to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission with a F1 style electronic differential.

The design will be an evolution of the current 599 with some design cues taken from both the 458 Italia and the FF. Due to use of more aluminum, this new Ferrari will be lighter than the current 599.

The new Ferrari GT is expected to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2012 and will then go on sale in late 2012.
