Ferrari News

Ooft, Ferrari has done it again. The Prancing Horse has taken the covers off its new Amalfi coupe, which replaces the Roma in its line-up.

Ferrari has continued its two-decade long line of ‘special’ versions of its smaller mid-rear engined supercars with the arrival of the 296 Speciale, a fire-breathing 647kW version of the twin-turbo, V6 plug-in hybrid.

If we offered you a free Ferrari or free Toyota which would you take?

Ferrari will launch its first-ever electric car in October, CEO Benedetto Vigna has confirmed.The announcement was made at Ferrari’s Q4 and full-year financial results conference, where Vigna refused to give any details of the combustion-free model aside from stating that it would be launched in a “unique and innovative” way.Five more models will launch alongside it next year, one of which will include the 12Cilindri Spider as well as a Roma replacement, which went out of production last year.Prototypes of the electric supercar have been previously spotted testing in Ferrari’s hometown of Maranello, Italy, giving some details of what to expect in terms of design.Surprisingly, the four-door model appears to be an oversized hatchback more than anything, with its fake exhausts undermined by high-voltage stickers indicating that it is, in fact, electric.Vigna has previously confirmed that the electric model will stay true to Ferrari’s core principle of driver engagement, with the EV set to deliver “authentic noise”, suggesting a program similar to Hyundai’s Active Sound+ that synthesises fake engine noises on the Ioniq 5 N is on the cards.A previous report by Reuters speculated its price tag could be as high as €500,000 ($829,580), although this hasn’t been confirmed directly by Ferrari.The move comes as Ferrari announced that hybrid models, such as the plug-in hybrid GTS 296, GTB 296 and SF90 Stradale, made up 51 per cent of its sales last year.Despite rivals such as Aston Martin delaying their electrification plans, Ferrari remains committed to having hybrids and EVs consisting of 80 per cent of its line-up by 2030.It will still produce combustion-engine models beyond then, with the brand’s CEO previously stating he believes synthetic e-fuels are the “way forward” for the brand.Ferrari’s revenue rose 11.8 per cent in 2024 compared to the year prior, with deliveries up marginally by 0.7 per cent to 13,752 in total.Vigna expects “robust growth” in 2025, bucking the trend of a tough economic outlook that many mainstream car brands are facing.

As the automotive industry's peak body warns of challenging times ahead for the new-car market in Australia due to rising costs and high interest rates, there is one corner of the market that is thriving.

What’s a car without a name? It’s an object that may function superbly well. It might even look impressively tough or beautifully sleek.

Just weeks after the release of the McLaren W1, Ferrari has unveiled its next halo car and next-generation ‘holy trinity’ competitor, the Ferrari F80.

Ferrari’s just-launched 12 Cilindri will be the last naturally aspirated vehicle of its kind, and indeed the last naturally-aspirated Ferrari of any kind, with the brand set to turn to hybridisation to keep its enormous V12 engine alive, and legal under increasingly challenging emissions regulations.

Sorry to make you look at this, really. It’s the Mansory Pugnator and it’s based on the Ferrari Purosangue SUV, though you genuinely might not know from looking at it.Leaving taste and subtlety at the door, as is the Mansory way, the prancing pony from Maranello is now a little less ‘Lake Como’ and a little more ‘put me in a coma’.“The Mansory Pugnator, which derives its name from the Latin ‘Pugnator: the competitor or contestant’, is yet another complete vehicle conversion that impressively and unrivalled demonstrates the entire technical expertise of Mansory,” the German conversion workshop says of its work on the Purosangue.With a series of coloured carbon fibre body panels and add-ons, the shape of the Ferrari SUV has been so altered that we’re surprised Ferrari hasn’t submitted a cease and desist (as it is often wont to do when people start fiddling with their cars).A new set of one-piece, ultra-light forged wheels in staggered 22-inch front and 23-inch rear sizes are arguably one of the most subtle things about this car.Its interior is similarly loud. A slathering of white leather with no shortage of red accents and Mansory badging looks ripe for literally any amount of dirt to immediately stain.It’s not all visual though, as Mansory usually also gets into the greasy bits and has a play around with some moving parts.In this case, the outfit has upped the Ferrari Purosangue’s 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12’s outputs from 533kW of power and 716Nm of torque to 563kW and 730Nm.Mansory calls it a “vehicle whose owners can fully realise their individual ideas and wishes”.  We’re not sure we’d make this our wish if we had the funds to do so.

Ferrari has announced a new pair of extended warranties, both aimed at keeping the value of its new plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models looking solid well into their lifespans.
