Berlin, 28 April 2025 –
The Ferrari 12Cilindri and the Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider are the only cars to
have received one of the 75 prestigious Gold Awards at the 2025 iF Design
Awards. The judges highlighted the "ingenious use of graphic elements that
wrap the 3D surfaces" of the cars, as well as their "form that is
both exciting and reassuring."
Ferrari also collected
an iF Design Award for the F80. These awards further underscore the relentless
pursuit of the Ferrari Design Centre, led by Flavio Manzoni, to find
cutting-edge design solutions that enhance the Prancing Horse’s models without
ever compromising the absolute synergy between functionality and aesthetics.
The award ceremony for
the 2025 edition of the iF Design Award, one of the most coveted design
recognitions worldwide, was held today in Berlin. Founded in 1953 by iF
International Forum Design GmbH, the competition sees judges assessing over
10,500 products and projects from around 70 nations.
The international judging panel praised the design, commenting "Ferrari is the quintessence of luxury. Ferraris have always represented the maximum expression of the automobile, and the 12Cilindri is no exception. This design hints at 1950s and ‘60s Ferraris yet is undeniably modern, from its cutting-edge aerodynamics to its ingenious use of graphical elements that wrap its 3D surfaces. Once again, Ferrari has magically succeeded in creating a form that is both thrilling and reassuring."
FERRARI 12CILINDRI
The Ferrari 12Cilindri is inspired by the Ferrari Grand Tourers of the ‘50s
and ‘60s and fully embodies the mission of the front-engine V12 two-seater
Ferrari with a blend of elegance, versatility, and performance. It represents
the latest evolution of this lineage, passing on a unique heritage and
elevating it to new standards of performance, comfort, and design. The shapes
express sportiness, class, and sobriety: simple and harmonious lines integrate
innovations such as integrated active aerodynamics to ensure unparalleled
performance, the front-hinged clamshell bonnet that enhances the engine
compartment, and classic design cues, like the twin pair of exhaust pipes
typical of Ferrari 12-cylinders.
