Ferrari has unveiled limited editions of its SF90 coupe and spider that take the hybrid V8 supercar duo to fresh extremes. The SF90 XX Stradale and its retractable hardtop sibling the SF90 XX Spider combine the track handling expertise of the brand’s XX Program with the performance of its road-legal special editions. Advanced aerodynamics, including the first fixed wing on a Ferrari since the F50 from the mid-1990s, upgraded dynamic software and more power from the hybrid V8 driveline deliver a zero to 100km/h time of just 2.3 seconds and top speed of 320km/h. With three electric motors part of the hybrid system, the SF90 can travel up to 25km on battery power alone. The cabin plays up the racing theme while shedding weight thanks to the use of carbon fibre for functional areas. The SF90 Stradale starts at $846,888.
