Ferrari SF90 Spider

The Ferrari SF90 Spider is a technical sensation – a combination of brutal propulsion, open-top driving pleasure, and state-of-the-art hybrid technology. It marks a turning point in Ferrari’s history, as it is Ferrari’s first series-production plug-in hybrid convertible model.

Design & Aerodynamics

Even at first glance, it is evident how consistently Ferrari has evolved its design language:

  • The Retractable Hard Top (RHT) opens and closes in just 14 seconds – even while driving. Ferrari

  • The roof mechanism occupies only about 100 liters of storage space – significantly less than usual. Ferrari

  • Aerodynamically, the SF90 Spider features an innovative “Shut-off Gurney” system at the rear, which regulates airflow depending on speed and driving conditions: more downforce in corners, less aerodynamic drag on straights. Ferrari

  • At the front, vortex generators and special diffusers help to generate additional aerodynamic effects and keep the vehicle stable despite the open roof. Ferrari

  • The wheels are specially designed so that they act like rotor blades and guide the air precisely. Ferrari

These measures ensure that the convertible is so stable and powerful that it hardly has to make any compromises compared to closed-top performance models.

Powertrain & Performance

The SF90 Spider shares its powertrain with the SF90 Stradale coupé, but delivers performance in an open-top configuration:

  • The internal combustion engine is a V8, which unleashes its power at already high RPMs. In addition, there are three electric motors, bringing the combined peak power to approximately 1,000 hp. preowned.ferrari.com+2Ferrari+2

  • This power enables extremely rapid acceleration: The SF90 (in its variants) is one of the fastest production vehicles from 0 to 100 km/h. Car and Driver+2Ferrari+2

  • Thanks to electric assistance, the vehicle can travel short distances purely electrically and thus emission-free – ideal for urban use. Ferrari+1

  • Ferrari also offers an “Assetto Fiorano” Option for customers who wish to extract maximum performance: featuring lighter materials, racing setups, optimized shock absorbers, and special tires. Ferrari+1

  • For the latest model year, the coupé variant (Stradale) has been officially discontinued: the SF90 will henceforth only be offered as a Spider. Car and Driver

Conclusion

The Ferrari SF90 Spider is a milestone: It combines the raw power of a high-performance supercar with the freedom of a convertible – and does so with state-of-the-art hybrid technology. It demonstrates that Ferrari looks to the future without betraying its DNA. For enthusiasts of speed, design, and technical innovation, it is a dream on wheels – and a drivable vision of what tomorrow’s high-performance sports car can look like.
