What is the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti?
The 612 Scaglietti is a front-engined, four-seat grand touring coupé. It brought Ferrari’s V12 performance into a roomier format, with space for passengers alongside its driver-focused cockpit. As a grand tourer, it paired a long-distance brief with Ferrari’s traditional V12 character. Its name honours Sergio Scaglietti, the Modena coachbuilder whose work became closely associated with Ferrari.

The 612 Scaglietti’s F137 generation ran from 2004 to 2011. Its long bonnet housed a 5.7-litre V12. EU figures list a 2011 version at 397 kW (540 PS), and Ferrari describes the engine as front-mounted and longitudinal. The four-seat layout gave this V12 Ferrari room for passengers as well as its driver.
