Ferrari 12Cilindri Novitec: No black strip, upgraded aerodynamics.
Novitec has unveiled a package for the Ferrari 12Cilindri: removing the black nose strip, adding carbon fiber, lowering the ride height by 30 mm, 21/22-inch Vossen wheels, active valve exhaust, and an optional Inconel exhaust system.
Novitec has introduced its first upgrade package for the Ferrari 12Cilindri, focusing on carbon fiber aerodynamics and chassis refinements. Notably, the tuning company has removed the default black stripe at the front of the car – a detail inspired by the 365 GTB/4 Daytona and not removable in Ferrari's configuration – resulting in a more streamlined appearance. The new suspension lowers the car by 30 mm, and it comes with 21/22-inch Vossen NF11 wheels and an active valve exhaust system with an optional ultra-lightweight Inconel material. An upgrade to the V12 engine is currently under development by Novitec; the price of the aerodynamic package has not yet been announced.
New carbon fiber design and aerodynamics.
The Ferrari 12Cilindri, the successor to the 812 Superfast, follows a classic design language with a black stripe at the front reminiscent of the Daytona. Novitec directly addressed this controversial detail by removing the stripe and adding carbon fiber aerodynamic panels. This approach prioritizes airflow optimization and reduced visual clutter, without altering the body structure.
This package is considered Novitec's "starting point" before launching more ambitious projects like the N-Largo or N-Largo S (limited wide-body kit). At this stage, Novitec prioritizes clean styling, refining aspects that directly affect the car's appearance and airflow around the front.
Lowered by 30 mm, with Vossen NF11 21/22 inch wheels.
Novitec's tuned suspension system lowers the ground clearance by 30 mm to lower the center of gravity, improving grip and handling agility. The altered body-to-chassis ratio also contributes to a more sporty profile from the side.
The Vossen-manufactured NF11 forged wheels are 21 inches at the front and 22 inches at the rear, with a variety of surface finish options. The offset front-rear diameter configuration optimizes tire track and grip for the rear axle – where the full V12 power is delivered.
Active valve exhaust, Inconel option, and 999 gold plating.
Novitec equips the exhaust system with an actively controlled butterfly valve, allowing for modulation of sound from smooth to sporty. Customers can choose a four-pipe exhaust system with dimensions of 112 x 100 mm, finished in black or exclusive 999 gold plating.
The top-of-the-line version uses Inconel alloy – a super-lightweight, high-temperature resistant material commonly found in Formula 1 racing cars. Additionally, a sport catalytic converter is an option to optimize power transfer efficiency and reduce overall weight.
Three-screen cabin, personalized materials.
Novitec offers interior personalization packages while retaining the 12Cilindri's original digital interface layout: a 15.6-inch digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel, a 10.25-inch central display, and an 8.8-inch screen for the passenger seat. Keeping the original display platform ensures a familiar experience, while materials and color schemes can be customized to the owner's personality.
Original motivations and upgrade roadmap
In its original configuration, the Ferrari 12Cilindri uses a V12 engine producing 830 horsepower. This power is transmitted entirely to the rear wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch DCT transmission. According to published specifications, the car accelerates from 0–100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 340 km/h.
Novitec says its engineers are developing an upgrade for this V12. No detailed figures on additional power or torque are available yet; when finalized, the engine package will likely be announced separately from the aerodynamic package.

Price and market context
Novitec has not yet revealed the price for the basic aerodynamic package. The Ferrari 12Cilindri has not yet been officially launched in Vietnam. In the same supercar segment, the Lamborghini Revuelto is priced from 44 billion VND.
Quick conclusion: paving the way for some serious modifications.
Novitec's initial package focuses on aesthetics and the chassis platform: removing the black front strip, adding carbon fiber, lowering the ride height by 30 mm, 21/22-inch wheels, and an active valve exhaust system with a premium material profile. This is a deliberate prelude to the N-Largo-style limited editions, while the V12 engine upgrade is still under development.
