The New Ferrari 12Cilindri?s Design Is a Nod to the Optimism of 1970s Sci-Fi
Ferrari unveils the 12Cilindri, a V12 powered grand touring coupe inspired by the futurism of 1960s and 70s Italian architecture and industrial design.
When Ferrari rolled out not one, but several of their new 2025 12Cilindri grand tourers onto stages across the Prancing Horse’s luxuriously appointed tent set across Miami’s South Beach, you could feel a palpable collective pause, as if every breath was being withheld in awe of what had rolled before us. A distillation of automotive mythology, the 12Cilindri is undeniably a Ferrari from muzzle to tail, a 2-seater engineered to satiate the insatiable desire for speed while confidently dressed in style and proportions distinctly Italian.

Imagined from the Ferrari Centro Stile in Maranello by Ferrari?s chief design officer Flavio Manzoni and team, the 12Cilindri ? or Dodici Cilindri in proper Italian elocution ? is an ambitiously realized design Manzoni would remark upon during a table side interview as one that “probably won’t be immediately understood or celebrated… but in time people will.”
Why would Manzoni hedge his bets in initial public reception"
