There’s a new Ferrari
on the block. Sadly, it’s the kind of Prancing Horse that has never
been as popular as cars like the 355. Yep, it’s a four-seater. Hence the
name: FF, standing for Ferrari Four. Unlike the Aston Martin Rapide,
this model didn’t go for four passenger doors, but it did go for
all-wheel drive. Apparently, the system has been developed by Ferrari
and is half the weight of a conventional AWD setup. The usual Maranello
high-tech is also in evidence, like a 6.2-liter V12 that develops 651 hp
and 504 lb-ft of torque, a dual-clutch gearbox, magnetorheological
dampers and Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes. This shooting brake can shoot
from standstill to 60 mph in about 3.5 seconds before hitting a top
speed of 208 mph. The design comes from the famed Pininfarina studios
(as long as no one mentions the BMW Z3 Coupe). Ferrari is calling the FF
its most versatile four-seater ever. At the time of writing, there is
no word on price or availability.
