The New Ferrari F12 Berlinetta engine comparison

New Ferrari F12 Berlinetta* is coming and most of discussions were related to design, so I've made some comparison between engines/performances that were mentioned lately.
*F12 Berlinetta engine is re-engineered FF engine.

F12 compared to Aventador holds very well, if we know that Aventador have CF monocoque and 4WD. F12 in comparison with FF is lighter, smaller & more powerful (on paper), but still FF holds its performance amazingly good, provided by 4WD.

My conclusion is that Aventador and FF are close/slightly better than F12 by its performance (on paper), but in terms of excitement that 2WD provides, F12 is absolute winner. Please do not consider design & usability aspect of these cars, this comparison is strictly related to performance facts.

Ferrari FF:-
65° V12 | 6262 cc | 660 CV at 8000 rpm | 683 Nm at 6000 rpm | 1790 kg | 3.7 seconds | 335 km/h | 4907 × 1953 × 1379 mm

Ferrari F12 Berlinetta:
65° V12 | 6262 cc | 740 CV at 8500 rpm | 690 Nm at 6000 rpm | 1525 kg | 3.1 seconds | 340 km/h | 4618 × 1941 × 1273 mm

Lamborghini Aventador:
65° V12 | 6498 cc | 700 CV at 8250 rpm | 690 Nm at 5500 rpm | 1575 kg | 2.9 seconds | 350 km/h | 4780 × 2030 × 1136 mm

Here you can take a look on video with magnificent sounding of FF engine:

Take a look this video too, with sounds of Aventador`s growling engine:

From a 100 km/h roll the F12 would terrorize the Aventador based on weight, increase of power by 40 hp and 50kg weight reduction.

 

great comparison!

but those are 3 individual and rather different cars..
the Aventador,the brutal supercar

the FF,the Allrounder with 4 seats,real luggage space,comfort style and luxury brought together ,yet offering real sportscar performance
(family,business,hotel services)

the F12,a 2 seater GT for couples or singles enjoying life and going out with style and power..
supercar performance,yet probably more in the GT section and offering more comfort and rafinesse than the Aventador
(guys like DJ,old farts with wife,young and famous,car nut with love for fast GT Fcars)

 

I agree with you and I was aware of that before making this comparison, but like I said:

 

Great post mate!
