The Dallara T12, also known as the Dallara FR35-12, is a race car engineered by the Italian company Dallara specifically for the World Series Formula V8 3.5, which evolved from the premier class of the World Series by Renault. It was unveiled at Silverstone Circuit on August 24, 2011, marking the introduction of the third-generation chassis utilized in this competition.
This model is equipped with a newly designed naturally aspirated V8 engine provided by the British outfit Zytek Motorsport, identified as the Zytek-Renault ZRS03. Additionally, it includes a six-speed sequential semi-automatic transmission created by Ricardo plc and features a Drag Reduction System inspired by innovations seen during the 2011 Formula One season. As a standardized series, every team and driver operates with the T12 chassis, guaranteeing consistency throughout the field.
