The BEST Ferrari Ever Built: Ferrari 812 Superfast

When it comes to nomenclatures, Ferrari has come to be plain and straight forward. After the weirdly named Ferrari TheFerrari, (because it is the distinctive definition of a Ferrari sports car), now comes the Ferrari 812 Superfast. Well the 812 Superfast is not just a hyperbole, the car is what the name suggests; a super fast car. The 8 in the 812 is because it produces a massive 800 PS power and the 12 is, well, for the V12 engine that produces that 800 PS power.

Introduction:

Ferrari 812 Superfast is the fastest production Ferrari ever. The car first made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show in 2017. This sports car is a Grand Tourer, which means it offers luxury with a super fast speed and is also perfect for long road trips. 812 is the successor to the highly acclaimed F12 Berlinetta, which received a number of awards for its beauty, design and engine. The F12 also received the awards for being the Best Supercar for the years 2012, 2013 and 2014 by major car magazines such as GQ, Topgear and EVO. Needless to say, the 812 Superfast has some very big shoes to fill.

The engine produces a whooping 800 PS (789 bhp) at 8,500 rpm and a massive 718 N.m of torque at 7,000 rpm.
