812

The Ferrari 812GTS is what a Ferrari should look like. Its beauty is breathtakingly beautiful, and the interior is wrapped in top-of-the-line Italian leather, but these details are just a starter-the real protagonist is the naturally aspirated, 789-horsepower V12 engine. This front-mounted V12 is ridiculously fast. As long as the driver steps on it with his right foot, it will play Ferrari's iconic sultry music and move with nature. It may sound a bit exaggerated, but it is the case-812 has this exciting power in design concept and purity. Its charm is also that it can not only calmly accompany you on a night tour of the city, but also instantly burst out with a sense of acceleration that makes your neck tilt back when you step on the accelerator. Although Ferrari didn't like us installing test instruments on their products, as early as 2018, we measured that the hardtop version of GTS (also called "Superfast" at the time) accelerated 0-60 mph in just 2.7 seconds, 0-100 mph in just 5.7 seconds, a quarter-mile acceleration in 10.4 seconds, and a tail speed of up to 138 mph. The name "Superfast" really lives up to its name. The 6.5-liter V12 engine is also hidden under the hood of the 2024 812GTS convertible-the only body form the model offers this year. Any doubts about whether the 812 can be called a super sports car disappeared as early as 2021 when we test-drove the Ferrari 812 GTS-at that time we concluded that "one car, two personalities." Those car owners who are lucky enough to grab the 2024 812GTS are equivalent to joining an elite club, because the 812 is likely to become Ferrari's last naturally aspirated V12 sports car without hybrid assistance. As if 812 needed more halos to prove its special.
