Ferrari FF V12 GDi Engine Showcased in New Video

As you know, Ferrari has decided to have a go at building a vehicle that would propel itself by pushing the Earth’s surface backward with all four wheels. Long story short, the FF was born. As the Italian are sort of obsessed with the words “advanced” and “technology”, especially when these two are brought together, the entire vehicle has been sprinkled with tech goodies that should allow the shooting brake to provide an out-of-this-world experience.

Now, the Prancing Horse is offering us a video in which it details some of the smart bits and pieces that the engineers gifted the FF with. The footage brings the company’s fresh V12 GDI (gasoline direct injection) to our attention.

We are talking about a 6.3-liter unit that relies on natural aspiration to bring 660 hp and a peak torque of 683 Nm (504 lb-ft) to your right foot. We have to mention that the mill manages to climb to the top of its segment in terms of compression ratio.

In addition to that, the video showcases the dual-clutch, seven-speed transmission which promises to offer zero shifting times, as well as the E-Diff technology used to send the power to the wheels.

And there’s more: the video also shows us how the FF’s multi-link suspension works, highlighting the assets of its magnetorheological shock absorbers.

Before we end the show, we’d like to mention that Ferrari calls the aforementioned goodies “the FF’s secrets”.
