Ferrari has introduced the 12Cilindri Manuale, a GT sports car featuring a V12 engine. While positioned as a return to manual performance, the vehicle utilizes a modified dual-clutch transmission (DCT) rather than a traditional manual setup.
Coverage from Robb Report, Motor1.com, Gear Patrol, and The Autopian emphasizes the distinction between this 'manual' system and conventional transmissions. Reports describe the car as a love letter to V12 performance, though some outlets highlight that the transmission is not what consumers might typically expect.
Future attention is focused on the 2027 model year and whether this modified DCT approach can preserve the manual transmission experience.
