2013 Ferrari FF

FF is an acronym for Ferrari Four (four seats and four-wheel drive). The all-wheel-drive system is unique in that the front wheels are driven by a 2-speed automatic power-transfer unit mounted on the front of the 651-horsepower 6.3-liter V12 engine. Each front wheel has an electronically controlled clutch pack that transmits power when needed for traction. Up to 20% of the engine’s torque can be sent to the front wheels. A standard 7-speed automated-manual transmission that behaves much like an automatic sends most power to the rear wheels.
