The first pictures of the Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera Berlinetta Lusso have surfaced online, ahead of its debut at the Geneva Motor Show.

Based on the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, the Berlinetta Lusso adopts a curvaceous new body with a retro appearance. There's no word on specifics but it appears that virtually every body panel has been replaced.
The interior largely carries over but we can see two-tone leather upholstery, silver trim and Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera sill plates.

There's no word on performance specification but the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta has a 6.2-liter V12 engine that develops 740 PS (544 kW) and 690 Nm (509 lb-ft) of torque. It is connected to a dual-clutch transmission which enables the model to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.1 seconds before hitting a top speed in excess of 340 km/h (211 mph).

Now that's a boss name for a vehicle. All the Italian words related to cars have been used. :laughing-rolling:

That's a good looking car, I never really liked the F12 Berlinetta anyway. This one reminds me of the Scaglietti.

The only wrong thing about it is the lack of a badge on the front and rear.

Looks better than the F12 it seems. Have to see it IRL though.

Lots of words to describe a car. And a mixture of Italian and English. If they start a small racing series, they can add Omologato or Speziale :lol:

Beautiful. Hopefully they'll make at least a couple of them, like they did with the Disco Volante.

The car is based on the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, though adopts minor styling changes to give the car a more retro appearance.

Most noticeable is the large grille which dominates the front end of the concept. The interior of the F12 also appears mostly unchanged, and keeps its digital dashboard.

Previously, an official video released by Touring Superleggera hinted at a deep Ferrari connection, with the Carlo Anderloni-penned Ferrari 166 MM Touring starring alongside snippets of the firm's concept. Included in the video was a quote by late Fiat owner Gianni Agnelli: "A well-done thing can be made better."

The Berlinetta Lusso retains the F12's naturally aspirated 6.3-litre V12, which produces 731bhp and 509lb ft. Performance is claimed to be the same as the Ferrari F12, meaning the Berlinetta Lusso should be capable of sprinting from 0-60mph in just 3.0sec.

Touring Superleggera has revealed low-volume production cars in the past at Geneva. Two years ago, the firm pulled the wraps off its Alfa Romeo 8C-based Disco Volante, and three years prior to that it revealed its Bentley Flying Star shooting brake.

Well, that's even less than the Disco Volante, AFAIK they produced 8 of them.

At least this isn't an one-off, I like this car and I'd like to see it being bought by someone who actually uses it.
