Ferrari is preparing to reveal a new hybrid supercar that will succeed the Ferrari SF90, keeping the Ferrari V8 at the heart of its setup.
Sources familiar with the brand’s plans say the SF90 replacement is expected to make its debut at a private event in Milan on September 9.
Camouflaged prototypes have already been seen around Maranello.
So far, the early signs point to more than just cosmetic updates.

What we’ve seen so far
Images of the prototype suggest a flatter front end with narrower headlights and a slightly more upright profile at the rear.
Two slim taillights and a set of centrally mounted exhaust tips replace the SF90’s wider layout.
The proportions are familiar, but the details indicate Ferrari has reworked the body to improve airflow and simplify the visual language.
The new model is expected to continue using the Ferrari V8 in a plug-in hybrid configuration, just like the Ferrari SF90.
In its current form, that system combines a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with three electric motors.
Together, they deliver 986 horsepower.
While no major increases in output have been confirmed, Ferrari may focus on improving responsiveness, thermal performance, and battery efficiency.
This hybrid supercar fits into Ferrari’s current strategy of extending the life of its combustion engines through hybrid support.
The Ferrari V8 remains a central part of that plan, offering the sound and character long associated with the brand.
The SF90 replacement is likely to preserve that identity while aligning with global emissions standards.
Where the Ferrari SF90 goes from here
The SF90 replacement arrives after other hybrid entries like the 296 Speciale and Amalfi GT.
Those cars introduced a smaller V6-based system, but this model keeps the Ferrari V8 to distinguish itself in performance and placement.
Ferrari has not made an official announcement, but industry sources have pointed to the September 9 event as a key milestone.
If the timeline holds, production could begin in early 2026.
While the company is developing its first electric vehicle, Ferrari continues to lean on its hybrid supercar lineup to meet both regulatory demands and market expectations.
The upcoming SF90 replacement shows that Ferrari is not rushing to abandon its core identity.
Instead, the next model will build on the Ferrari SF90’s foundation, refining what already works while bridging toward future technology.
