Electrified transportation is the way of the future. Ferrari gets on board by rolling out the SF90 Stradale, a plug-in hybrid with sleek styling, blistering performance, and a gas/electric powertrain. The brand's new hypercar comes standard with all-wheel drive and is capable of traveling for up to 16 miles using only electric power. The SF90 Stradale is motivated by three electric motors and a potent V-8, and they combine to produce a staggering 986 horsepower. Serious power means seriously quick acceleration; Ferrari claims this coupe sprints from zero to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds. The SF90 Stradale is priced at more than $600,000.

The SF90 Stradale is all new and makes its debut for the 2020 model year.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
There's only one trim offered for the 2020 Ferrari SF90 Stradale, but it comes packed with enough amenities to make it a satisfying pick for shoppers in this price range. Twenty-inch silver-accented wheels connect the car to the pavement. This Ferrari's aluminum body is embellished with rocker panels, a wing spoiler, and a black grille, and they give the exterior an assertive look that communicates this coupe's prodigious performance capabilities. When the sun dips below the horizon, the car's adaptive and fully automatic LED headlights are on hand to illuminate the way. The list of standard exterior features also includes rain-sensing windshield wipers, rear fog lamps, LED taillights, and heated power-folding side-view mirrors. Within the cabin, driver and passenger can get comfortable in standard four-way power-adjustable seats. All models are equipped with interior features such as automatic air conditioning, keyless entry and ignition, a power-adjustable tilt-and-telescoping steering column, and leather upholstery. When it comes to tech features, the SF90 Stradale counts Bluetooth wireless phone connectivity and an integrated navigation system among its list of standard equipment. Additionally, all models come with driver-assistance features such as a backup camera and rear parking sensors. If you want to give this coupe a more customized appearance, you can select from a host of upholstery choices. There are also a number of different wheel designs, and the list of available upgrades also includes carbon-fiber components, titanium exhaust pipes, a digital rearview mirror and brake calipers in varying colors.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
With the SF90 Stradale, power comes from a massive V-8 and three electric motors. The 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 generates a mighty 769 horsepower on its own, and the trio of electric motors provide an additional 217 horsepower. In the end, the gas/electric powertrain generates a net output of 986 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels, making this the first mid-engined Ferrari with all-wheel drive. An eight-speed automatic transmission oversees the proceedings. As you'd expect, all that power under the hood translates into blistering acceleration. Ferrari estimates that this coupe will rocket from zero to 60 mph in a scant 2.5 seconds. Different driving modes allow you to tailor the car's handling to suit your preferences. The lineup includes EV Only, Hybrid, Performance, and, last but not least, Qualify—a setting that allows you to fully exploit the car's performance capabilities.
Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG
The EPA hasn't provided fuel-economy estimates for the 2020 Ferrari SF90 Stradale. This car is able to travel for up to 16 miles using its trio of electric motors.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The SF90 Stradale's interior is fairly sedate, with the yellow prancing-horse logo adding a splash of color on the center of the steering wheel. This two-seat coupe is home to a sculpted dashboard with fluid lines that mimic the flowing design of the car's exterior. With high-performance exotics, cargo space is typically in short supply. This is certainly the case with the SF90 Stradale, which provides roughly three cubic feet of room for your stuff.
Infotainment and Connectivity
All SF90 Stradales come with an LCD monitor up front and a six-speaker sound system. The car is also equipped with standard tech features such as Bluetooth phone and streaming audio, real-time traffic, and an integrated navigation system with a voice-activation feature. Apple CarPlay integration is offered, but Android Auto isn't on the list of available amenities.
Safety and Driver-Assistance Features
Hypercars aren't typically known for offering a broad selection of driver-assistance features, which is true of the SF90. For more information about the SF90's crash test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features include:
- Standard backup camera
- Standard rear parking sensors
- Available blind-spot monitoring
Warranty and Maintenance Coverage

With Lamborghini vehicles, complimentary scheduled maintenance isn't offered.
- Limited warranty covers 3 years or unlimited miles
- Powertrain warranty covers 3 years or unlimited miles
- Complimentary scheduled maintenance covers 7 years or unlimited miles
