The Ferrari 812 Competizione A is the open-top version of the 812 Competizione, limited to 599 cars and revealed alongside the coupe on May 5, 2021 (the 'A' is for Aperta). It shares the coupe's revised 6.5-liter F140 HB V12, 819 hp (830 PS) at 9,250 rpm with a 9,500 rpm redline, titanium con-rods, independent rear-wheel steering and track-biased chassis, and swaps the coupe's vortex-generator rear screen for a removable targa-style roof panel and a decklid with flying-buttress detailing.

It's the rarer and open counterpart to the hardcore V12 send-off, and mechanically the two are the same car. Ferrari quotes the same performance ballpark, 0-100 km/h in about 2.85 seconds and 340 km/h, with a modest weight penalty over the coupe for the open structure. All 599 were sold to invited Ferrari clients.
