Powertrain
The all-new 2024 Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale inherited the signature PHEV layout found in the SF90 Stradale and SF90 Spider. The powertrain consists of a V8 internal combustion engine integrated with electric motors, two independent on the front axle and one located between the engine and gearbox at the rear. This configuration produces a maximum of 1030 cv, which is an additional 30 ccv over the normal Stradale.
Internal combustion engine
The V8 turbo engine has been tuned by Ferrari to produce 797 cv of maximum power output. Efficiency was increased by polishing the inlet and exhaust ducts and the compression ratio was increased with the adoption of new pistons and specific machining of the combustion chamber. A whopping 3.5 kg engine weight was slashed off by the removal of the secondary air system.
Engine sound
The SF90 XX Stradale’s soundtrack was redesigned to become the ultimate encapsulation of the car’s racing soul. To produce an even fuller, richer sound and celebrate the harmonics right across the V8’s rev range, the hot tube system was optimized. This transmits the combustion pulsations into the cabin, highlighting the higher frequencies to reveal the ultimate evolution of the Ferrari V8.
Electric motors
Three electric motors are available on the models, they include one located between the ICE and the gearbox and two on the front axle. They deliver a maximum of 233 cv or 171 kW, this is brought about by the patented extra boost vehicle dynamics logic.
Ferrari equipped the SF90 XX Stradale with a high-performance lithium-ion battery which powers the three electric motors, guaranteeing a 25km range on a full electric range. The front motors give the car a maximum speed of 135 km/h when the internal combustion engine is off.
The driver can use the eManettino selector on the steering wheel to choose from four different power management modes. In eDrive mode, the internal combustion engine is turned off and traction is entrusted entirely to the front axle; in Hybrid mode, it favors battery energy depletion and manages transitions autonomously, maximizing the full-electric range; in Performance mode, the internal combustion engine is kept running as the priority is on maintaining consistent performance, rather than on achieving the peak power; and in Qualifying, the system unleashes its maximum power output, thanks to a control logic that prioritizes performance, using the brand-new extra boost function.
Transmission
Standard on the 2024 Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale and SF90 XX Spider is the 8-speed dual-clutch gearbox that made its first appearance in the Ferrari SF90 Stradale. For the 2024 SF90 XX series, the company changed the gear-shift logic to reach more engaging and dynamic acceleration profiles. The new logic also improves the gear-shift sound by introducing an exhaust note similar to the overrun on the lift-off noise typical of high-performance driving at medium and high revs.
Aerodynamics
The new SF90 XX Stradale offers the most efficient aerodynamic performance of any road-going car in the company’s history, making it comparable to the LaFerrari Supercar. It delivers double the maximum downforce of the SF90 Stradale, improving grip and yielding a palpably faster lap time at Fiorano. The product of Maranello’s inestimable racing experience, this result was reached by redesigning the cooling flow management for the thermal and electric components as well as the engine compartment to cope with the higher maximum power available.
From an aerodynamics perspective, the signature element is most definitely the rear fixed wing which was developed from experience with the XX Programme cars. This is an element with enormous aero potential that proved a natural fit for this particular application, thanks to close collaboration with the Ferrari Styling Centre. Its shape was dictated by the need to efficiently hone how the pressure field created by the wing interacts with the complex pressure and backpressure systems that develop around the shut-off Gurney.
The latter, which was also redesigned, efficiently manages the downforce/drag trade-off and has two configurations: LD (Low Drag) in which the mobile element is raised and is faired in with the fixed section, minimizing drag to enhance longitudinal performance, while in HD (High Downforce), the mobile element is lowered, closing the blown area, thereby allowing the air to hit the fixed area. This generates an overpressure area which, aside from generating rear downforce, also deflects the incoming flow vertically to help deliver the absolute maximum rear downforce possible: 315 kg at 250 km/h.
The ICE benefits from improved cooling thanks to the fact that the front radiators for the high-temperature cooling circuit are more efficient. The new layout of the underbody was also optimized to guarantee improved extraction of the air coming off the radiators ahead of the front wheels. The side louvers on the lower part of the front bumper, already seen on the SF90 Stradale, were also redesigned and are now larger to reduce back pressure.
Dynamics
Ferrari focused on making the SF90 XX Stradale the most high-performance road car ever. The transition from electric mode to hybrid mode is extremely smooth thanks to the seamless coordination between the electric front axle, the 8-speed DCT gearbox, the rear-mounted electric motor, and the V8 engine. This in turn guarantees progressive, continuous acceleration and makes all the powertrain’s power available as rapidly as possible.
The Torque Vectoring and Energy Recovery under braking and lift-off functions are available in all configurations, and the Ferrari Dynamic Enhancer (2.0) makes its debut. It is also active in all dynamic Manettino positions and all grip conditions. The various systems are all managed by the electronic Side Slip Control (eSSC) 1.0.
Another major new addition is the ABS EVO controller, which debuted on the 296 GTB. Thanks to its integration with the 6W-CDS sensor it improves both performance and repeatability in high-performance braking in dry conditions. It functions in high grip situations and the Manettino positions from Race upwards using the data from the 6W-CDS sensor to obtain a precise estimation of the car’s speed. This makes it possible to determine the target slip of all four wheels and consequently optimize brake distribution.
Exterior design of the 2024 Ferrari SF90 XX series
The design of the luxury car is headed by Flavio Manoni, the SF90 XX Stradale combines engineering principles that underpinned the SF90 Stradale and pushes them to new extremes. It is designed to highlight its thoroughbred performance characteristics whilst still retaining the pure lines and forms of its predecessor. The rear wing is one of the most distinctive characteristics of the SF90 XX Stradale. The tail volume has been specifically redesigned with aero in mind, it is now sleeker, giving it the long silhouette typical of racing cars.
The arrow-shaped front wing concept has been retained on the SF90 XX Stradale. The headlights, which now have an even lower upper profile, are now integrated into this area by two external vertical wing profiles. This creates what we might call a more geometric language that reflects the spirit of this new car. New and distinctive elements of the front section are the two imposing lower wings that dominate the air intakes, which look as if they are floating, making the SF90 XX Stradale itself seem broader and more glued to the asphalt than any other.
The rear of the car is characterized by the trimaran design of the tail. Compared to the SF90 Stradale, the SF90 XX Stradale features more imposing rear vents behind the wheels. The trimaran section also incorporates two central exhausts. Design-wise, the aim here was to visually underscore the impressive width of the rear of the car and this was achieved by drawing on a layering concept.
Interior design
The guiding principle of the SF90 XX Stradale’s interior design was highlighting the cockpit’s racing vocation through solutions that would provide significant weight savings. The main areas involved were the door panels, tunnel, and mats, which are now simpler in terms of their shape and the mainly technical fabrics used, while carbon fiber was used for functional areas. The upper part of the dashboard is trimmed in Alcantara®, while the lower part is trimmed in technical fabric. Both are inspired by the racing world.
The door panels emphasize the theme seen aboard the SF90 Stradale: the concave sections that converge on the dashboard are highlighted by the color contrast. The three louvers in the middle zone, on the other hand, are a nod to the air vents on the wheel arch, creating an overall dynamic, sculptural effect. The three apertures, which reference the exterior language, also seamlessly integrate technical and control functions, in a completely new stylistic interpretation.
The pared-back central tunnel not only looks but is exceptionally light. It is dominated by the gear shift gate which is located now centrally and more forward on the tunnel compared to the SF90 Stradale. The window lifters and the key compartment are on a secondary level. The styling theme is characterized by volumes that create a sophisticated combination of functional voids and structural solids, lending the tunnel a sporty yet sophisticated appeal while still highlighting its functionality.
A specific racing seat with a visible carbon-fiber tubular structure and cushion supports was designed for the car to enhance sporty driving pleasure without compromising on comfort. The backrest rake mechanism has been integrated into the seat using elastic trim materials which hide the separation between the backrest and seat squab. This means that the structure looks seamless at all times – just like a single-piece seat while also allowing the backrest to be adjusted. Together with the carbon-fiber structure, this feature saved 1.3 kg in weight compared to the SF90 Stradale’s single-piece seat.
