SF90 Stradale: Ferrari's first proper production hybrid

With the SF90 Stradale, Ferrari has introduced its first hybrid – but don’t worry, it’s still all about the performance.

"The Ferrari SF90 Stradale plug-in hybrid is Ferrari's first big step toward electrification," says Andrew Kwok on Cnet's Roadshow. But that "shouldn't rankle too many cankles, because it also happens to be the fastest Ferrari production car to date". True, the brand's LaFerrari model was also a hybrid. But that was a "limited-run hypercar", made for "a few lucky individuals". The SF90 Stradale, on the other hand, is a "proper production Ferrari", made to celebrate Ferrari racing's 90th birthday. That means "more well-heeled buyers will be able to slip behind the wheel and get a taste of where Ferrari is headed over the next decade".
