MANILA: The spider form of the Ferrari SF90 Stradale, the SF90 Spider, was recently launched during an exclusive virtual event. It gave Ferraristi Worldwide an exceptional introduction to the cutting edge details and features of the vehicle.
Being the Prancing Horse’s first production plug-in hybrid spider, the SF90 Spider sets new standards for advancement and performance not only for the car brand’s portfolio, but for the entire sports car industry.
The new convertible has the same aggressive supercar specification and excellent performance as the SF90 Stradale.
Due to the latest version of Ferrari’s signature retractable hardtop architecture, it also brings more driving flexibility and enjoyment to the package.
This makes the SF90 Spider suitable for owners who demand the best of Ferrari technology but want to experience the thrill of convertible driving.
The Retractable Hardtop (RHT) shape has been adopted, and when raised, it ensures maximum protection against noise and insulation from the elements and does not experience deformity at high speeds, and this in turn, provides more comfort and space for occupants.
The RHT is light, comfortable and compact. It can be retracted in just 14 seconds and can be deployed when the vehicle is in motion.
The key to the success of the Ferrari RHT, which debuted the 458 Spider in 2011 and has continually changed over the years, is that it takes up just 100 liters of space instead of 150-200 liters, which is a conventional model. system needs.
The use of aluminum in its construction makes it about 40 kg lighter compared to a traditional retractable hardtop.
An adjustable power rear window ensures supreme comfort for drivers and passengers even at high speeds, especially when lowering the RHT.
Like the SF90 Stradale, the SF90 Spider can also be taken advantage of with an additional specification option for owners who want to take their track car calling to the next level.
The Assetto Fiorano package features a variety of exceptional upgrades that set it apart from standard vehicles, such as Multimatic shocks that originated from Ferrari’s GT racing experience and were maximized for track purposes.
Others include the use of high-performance materials such as titanium and carbon fiber that have removed 21kg from the vehicle’s weight, a road-approved Michelin Pilot Sport Cup and a carbon fiber rear spoiler, and two tires made to improve performance on track due to the presence of fewer grooves and softer compound.
Finally, the Assetto Fiorano offers an alternative two-tone livery that highlights the racing vocation of the vehicle.
In addition to having a similar silhouette to the SF90 Stradale, the SF90 Spider has distinctive dynamic appeal when the top is lowered. When the roof is absent, it may appear to visually lower the vehicle’s center of gravity, an impression that is further reinforced through the variation in the color of the trim on the roll rings that lead to the buttresses.
The front area of the vehicle features a prominent and aggressive profile with three air intakes and headlights that use matrix LED technology and active beam control to improve visibility in all driving conditions. The rear of the vehicle is punctuated by tall tailpipes due to the maximization of the exhaust line design.
The SF90 Spider’s powertrain architecture includes the V8 turbo ICE, an eight-speed DCT with E-diff, the RAC-e electric front axle with two self-contained electric motors that also offer all-electric propulsion, the MGUK electric motor positioned in the behind between the completely redesigned eight-speed, oil-bath, dual-clutch gearbox (introduced on the SF90 Stradale) and the engine, high-voltage battery and electric motor control system (inverter).
The new hybrid architecture required a comprehensive integration work into the various vehicle control logistics, including the high-voltage system that controls the controls for vehicle dynamics (traction, braking, torque vectoring), powertrain and high voltage system controls (inverter, MGUK, RAC-e, battery).
Inside, the SF90 Spider features predominantly digital instrumentation: a central instrument cluster with a single 16-inch HD display, a huge circular rev counter enclosed by the battery charge indicator, a navigation screen with audio controls, a steering wheel that has a range of tactile commands, indicators, windshield wiper and headlight control on the steering wheel.
Other components that can be seen on the interior of the SF90 Spider are the gear lever door, which has replaced the F1 bridge seen on previous Ferrari models, and the new ignition key, which looks like a Exact duplicate of the Ferrari Prancing Horse emblem located. on the hood.
Unmatched quality standards and improved focus on customer service strengthen the seven-year extended maintenance program, provided with the SF90 Spider. This program is also offered across the range and its coverage includes regular maintenance during the first seven years of the vehicle’s useful life.
Some of the benefits of the Genuine Maintenance Program are regular maintenance (at 20,000 km intervals or once a year with no mileage limitations), meticulous control and care of original spare parts by well-trained personnel at the Service Center. Ferrari training in Maranello using cuts. edge diagnostic tools. The service can be used in all global markets and at all dealers in the Ferrari official dealer network.
