Ferrari 12Cilindri Manuale brings back a manual gearshift after 14 years — but it's drive-by-wire

Ferrari has revealed the 12Cilindri Manuale, bringing a gear lever and three pedals back to its lineup for the first time in 14 years. However, the car uses a modern dual-clutch gearbox underneath, with the feel of a traditional manual gated shifter simulated by a Manuale By-Wire system rather than a direct mechanical connection. The model blends nostalgia with Ferrari's contemporary engineering approach.
