The exterior has undergone some changes, primarily in the form of new air intakes located on both sides of the front grille, a new diffuser and other aerodynamic solutions inspired by Formula 1.

Most attention was paid to the power of the Competizione and Competizione A engines. Thus, the engine got new titanium con-rods and the pins inside the pistons, as well as a new camshaft. The Ferrari 812 models are powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine with 820 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque. Compared to Superfast, engine power has been increased by 31 hp but torque has been reduced by 19 lb-ft.

With a weight of 3,278 pounds, the Competizione reaches 62 mph in less than 3 seconds with a top speed of 211 mph (340 km / h). For faster gear changes, the engine is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Both models come with carbon wheels and Michelin Cup 2 R tires.

It is currently unknown how many units will be produced, or how much they will cost.
