The Ferrari SF90 Stradale And 812 Stopping Production In 2025

Since its founding in 1929, Ferrari has become a brand synonymous with luxury, power, and speed. Its demand among automotive enthusiasts has never wavered in nearly a century, and it is clear why. The power of Ferrari can be seen in this year’s sales alone. It sold more cars this year between May and July than it did last year, showing that its popularity is only rising. 

Due to this demand, Ferrari decided to look at their product list and stopped production of the SF90 Stradale and the 812 GTS. They have confirmed that they have phased out both of these vehicles from their production line in the second quarter of this year. 

The Ferrari SF90 Stradale: A Fond Farewell

The SF90 Stradale will be the first to say goodbye this year. The celebrated vehicle was called the Suderia, which was a decorated race car and was driven by iconic race drivers like Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc. It was released in 2019 as the first Ferrari to receive an upgrade to a plug-in hybrid powertrain. It included a twin-turbo V8, four-wheel-drive, and over 900 horsepower.

The model could complete 0-62 miles-per-hour in 2.5 seconds. This is thanks to  its three electric motors, two at the front and one at the back. It also contains the new eight-speed transmissions that removed the reverse option as the SF90 was made for the track. It is a wonder that Ferrari is removing it with impressive stats like that. The rumor on the grapevine is that the SF90 Stradale has been pulled from production as it is getting an update, but that hasn’t been confirmed just yet.  

The SF90 XX and the Upcoming F173M

The SF90 Stradale’s sibling, the SF90 XX, will live to see another year, as it has only been back in production recently but is also rumored to have a replacement already, the F173M. Several photos have been released from the Ferrari track in Maranello, where prototype testing was happening that included the F173M.  

Introducing the Dodici Cilindri

Additionally, the 812 GTS is being replaced by the new Dodici Cilindri. The Dodici Cillindri is one of the few new Ferraris without any electric assistance. It contains an eyewatering V12, 6.5-litre engine that can produce a staggering 9500rpm. The model does not contain any turbochargers or hybrid boost. Instead, it has lighter titanium conrods and forged pistons, which produce more revs. It has 820 horsepower and can complete 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds.

Other Models on the Chopping Block  

Also, Ferrari has announced that the deliveries of the 812 Competizione and Roma coupe have been reduced. They detailed that both cars were next on the chopping block and that they would soon cease production.  

Ferrari’s Strong Performers in 2024

There are several models that are selling excellently this year for Ferrari, and they include the Roma Spider, which has single-handedly bolstered numbers in the second quarter of this year, the 296 GTS, and, of course, the Purosangue. In particular, the biggest selling area for Ferrari this year was the Americas. 52 percent of deliveries there being the combustion engine models and 48 percent being hybrid versions. 

The Future: Ferrari’s Electric Ventures

Like all automotive companies, Ferrari is massively investing in the electric side of their portfolio. The second quarter of this year saw the start of its “e-building,” which includes the first-ever all-electric Ferrari. While it might be a couple of months before we lay eyes on this model, it is still exciting to see Ferraris take on the new technology and how they will morph their signature style to fit such a new and different technology. 

All in all, it is looking like a busy year for Ferrari. With many models taking a break from production for the foreseeable future; there are many spaces opening up for new and exciting vehicles. These fresh lineups are sure to keep pushing the boundaries of automotive engineering, like Ferrari has always done.
