The Ferrari 512 S Modulo is a concept car designed by coach maker Pininfarina for Ferrari, unveiled at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show. It was the last in a series of mid-engined studies based on one of the twenty-five 512 S racing cars that Ferrari built for homologation purposes.

The concept car has an extremely low body with a Canopy-style roof that slides forward to permit entry to the cabin. All four wheels are partly covered. Another special feature of the design consists of twenty-four holes in the engine cover that reveal the engine.
