Every part of the FF brims with innovation, not least in the engine. It is the first GDI V12 to be coupled with the seven-speed F1 dual-clutch gearbox.

The V12 unleashes a massive 660 CV, at 8,000 rpm, and maximum torque of 683 Nm, at 6,000 rpm, with 500 Nm already available at just 1,000 rpm.

This ensures the performance of an extreme sports car, with a 0-100 km/h sprint in just 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 335 km/h.

Efficiency has been significantly boosted too: fuel consumption now stands at just 15.4 liters per 100 km, and CO2 emissions at 360 g/km, a 25 percent reduction compared to the previous V12s. This comes, in part, from the HELE (High Emotions - Low Emissions) System which uses Stop & Start technology.
