Geneva genuflects for magnificent auto specimens

It’s the show that affords carmakers the opportunity to pull out all the stops.

And in Geneva next week, the most thrilling among the luxury debuts will be key entries from Ferrari, McLaren, Pagani, and Lamborghini.

Ferrari will show the 812 Superfast, a long-awaited successor to the Ferrari F12. The 812 Superfast is a front-engined, 6.5-litre, V12 berlinetta with 789bhp and 530lb feet of torque. It will be able to hit 60mph (96kph) in less than 2.9 seconds, with a top speed of 211mph. This makes it Ferrari’s fastest and most powerful berlinetta ever.
