The brief
Ferrari has introduced the 12Cilindri Manuale, a V12 model featuring a manual gearbox. The vehicle is being marketed as the first new Ferrari to include a gated shifter since 2012.
Coverage from The Drive, Road & Track, Motor1.com, Car and Driver, and Top Gear focuses on the inclusion of the stick-shift design. These reports qualify the development by describing the transmission as a "manual" or "kind of" manual system, though coverage does not yet specify the precise mechanical function of the unit.
Future updates will likely clarify the technical specifications of the transmission. It remains to be seen how the gated shifter integrates with the 12Cilindri's existing powertrain architecture as stated in future reports.
