A Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale caused a scene when it arrived in London.
This is one of the rarest models you can buy, which explains why it grabbed everyone’s attention, even in London, which is one of the go-to places for supercar spotters in Europe.
Most Ferraris have that effect, even more so when they’re as rare as the SF90 XX Stradale is.
The automaker only built 799 units.

London and its supercars
London is and pretty much always has been a supercar hotspot.
It’s the place where Saudi billionaires airlift their gold cars to drive them around Knightsbridge and the city where you can spot Ferraris that are so rare even fellow Ferrari owners stop to look at them.
It’s not just about supercars, either.
For years, people have scratched their heads trying to identify a mystery sportscar in a photograph taken in the 1960s.
That turned out to be a Saab, by the way.
We’ve solved that mystery thanks to one of our readers.
The Ferrari SF90 XX Stradale is a limited-edition version of an already rare car
Like other Ferraris, the SF90 XX Stradale is the limited-edition iteration of a car that already started out as rare.
Based on the SF90, the XX is a more track-focused version limited to 799 units.
It is powered by a hybrid 4.0-liter V8 powertrain, which is paired to three electric motors, but even though the engine is the same as the ‘regular’ SF90, it puts out 1,030 horsepower instead of 1,000.
It is also lower to the ground and more aerodynamically efficient due to the massive wing at the back.
It also has an all-electric range of 16 miles, equivalent to around 26 km.
Although we’re pretty sure the average Ferrari owner probably won’t care much about that part.
