Unparalleled Exhilaration
The focus with the SF90 XX Spider’s development was to produce the most high performance Ferrari road car ever that also delivered superb fun behind the wheel as well as fully retaining all of the functionalities of the SF90 Stradale’s hybrid powertrain. Also of major importance was usability of performance, particularly the electric mode’s ability to deliver surprisingly high performance driving both in urban settings and all the way up to out-of-town trips – the top speed in eDrive mode is 135 km/h.

ABS
‘EVO’
Another major new addition is the ABS EVO controller, which debuted on the 296 GTB and, thanks to its integration with the ECS sensor, improves both performance and repeatability in high performance braking in the dry. The system maximises the repeatability of the braking manoeuvre to a target value, reducing losses due to the tolerances of the components or the natural variability of test conditions. As a result, the controller allows the SF90 XX Spider to brake later and in a more repeatable manner, thus enhancing its handling on the track.

EXTRA
BOOST
Also debuting on SF90 XX Spider is the extra boost control logic which guarantees a performance surplus for a limited time window. The job of this software, which is only active in Qualifying mode of the eManettino, is to reduce lap time by increasing the limit of the deliverable power coming out of a bend. This short power boost of around 2 seconds guarantees a reduction of lap time of 0.25s at Fiorano.
