Ferrari just unveiled the new Amalfi Spider which, per tradition, comes just a few months after its coupe sibling.
Powered by a V8 and a high-tech dual-clutch gearbox, the Amalfi Spider is the entry-level convertible from the Italian brand.
Although, given its price, calling it ‘entry-level’ sounds a bit strange.
And speaking of its price, there’s something else worth noting.
The Amalfi Spider is powered by a V8, and there’s no electricity involved
Just like the Amalfi coupe, the Amalfi Spider comes with a V8.
And, car people will probably love this, it isn’t a hybrid.
Under the hood of this convertible, you’ll find a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8, delivering 631 horsepower and 561lb-ft of torque.
It does 0 to 62mph in 3.3 seconds, and it has a top speed of 199mph (320km/h).
Power is sent to the rear wheels thanks to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission derived from the record-breaking SF90 Stradale.
Another number people will probably be happy to hear is this: 13.5 seconds.
That’s the time it takes to open (or close) the fabric soft-top at speeds up to 37mph (60km/h).
This Ferrari is a stylish GT, not a track racer
Visually, the Amalfi Spider looks pretty minimalistic and stylish.
There are no massive scoops on the hood, no giant wings at the back – apart from a subtle active lip spoiler.
The Italian automaker also introduced two paint options specifically designed for this convertible: Rosso Tramonto (sunset red) and Verde Costiera (coastal green).
Inside, you’ll find a 15.6-inch digital cluster and a 10.25-inch central display and, more importantly, you’ll find a lot of physical buttons.
Several automakers have realized that people want physical buttons, not just digital switches, and they’re acting accordingly.
Deliveries are expected to begin in late 2026 or early 2027, and there are three things worth mentioning when it comes to the price tag.
One, it hasn’t been officially announced yet.
Two, it’ll likely be in the region of $300,000-$350,000.
And then three, as crazy it sounds, this’ll make the Amalfi Spider one of the least expensive Ferraris you can buy, and definitely the ‘cheapest’ convertible Prancing Horse.
