Raise the roof! New Ferrari SF90 Spider revealed with 735 kW
The new Ferrari SF90 Spider has been revealed, with the Maranello-based firm effectively now offering its first series production plug-in hybrid electric vehicle in convertible form.
Like the SF90 Stradale coupé revealed back in May 2019, the new retractable hard-top model combines a 574 kW turbocharged 4,0-litre V8 engine with three electric motors for peak system outputs of 735 kW and 800 N.m.
That’s enough, says the Prancing Horse brand, for a blast from zero to 100 km/h in just 2,5 seconds (matching the coupé) and a top speed of 340 km/h. The SF90 Spider will reach 200 km/h in a claimed 7,0 seconds, some three-tenths behind the SF90 Stradale.
One electric motor is mounted at the rear (between the engine and the eight-speed dual-clutch transmission), with the other two sited on the front axle. The SF90 Spider is furthermore equipped with all-wheel drive. With a fully charged 7,9 kWh battery, Ferrari says the SF90 Spider can cover “up to 25 km” in fully electric mode, with top speed limited to 135 km/h.
