[PCauto] Ferrari 849 Testarossa, as the successor to the SF90 Stradale, is the latest mid-engine hybrid supercar that not only carries the historical legacy of the legendary Testarossa name but also showcases Ferrari's latest breakthroughs in hybrid technology.
The new car's naming originates from the classic "red head" engine design of the 1956 500 TR racing car, which returned to Ferrari in 2023 through a ruling by the European Union Court.
849 Testarossa combines classic and modern design elements
The design of the side air intake of the 849 Testarossa is inspired by the 1984 Testarossa but features a more modern concealed design.
The rear's dual-wing structure pays homage to the 1970s 512 S racing car and is equipped with a full-width LED light strip and optional carbon fiber wheels.
The bottom of the car body features multi-layer diffusers and vortex generators, not only optimizing airflow management but also improving cooling efficiency by 15%.
In terms of interior design, the 849 Testarossa incorporates feedback from SF90 Stradale users, with the new car returning to physical button designs, especially for commonly used functions like air conditioning control and driving mode selection.
The steering wheel retains physical buttons, the center console has been simplified, the dashboard integrates more driving information, and the passenger side is equipped with an independent display screen.
The Assetto Fiorano package successfully reduces the car's weight by 30 kg through the use of carbon fiber seats and titanium suspension components.
The 849 Testarossa adopts a brand-new hybrid powertrain architecture
The core of the 849 Testarossa's powertrain is a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which has been fully upgraded to deliver 830 horsepower, achieving a specific output of 208 horsepower per liter.
The engine features titanium connecting rods, a reinforced crankshaft, and larger turbochargers, with the redline increased to 8,300 rpm.
It is paired with a three-motor system, including dual motors on the front axle and a single motor on the rear axle, with the rear axle motor incorporating F1-derived MGU-K technology.
The entire hybrid system produces a combined output of 1,050 horsepower and is equipped with a 7.45 kWh battery pack, allowing for a pure electric range of 25 kilometers and a top speed of 139 km/h in electric mode.
849 Testarossa delivers stunning performance
The hardtop version of the 849 Testarossa achieves 0-100km/h acceleration in approximately 2.2 seconds, 0-200km/h acceleration in only 6.3 seconds, and a top speed exceeding 330km/h.
On Ferrari's private Fiorano test track, the car recorded a lap time of 1 minute 17.5 seconds, which is 1.5 seconds faster than the SF90 Stradale, and even approaches the performance level of the limited-edition SF90 XX.
These outstanding performance figures are attributed to the vehicle's exceptional aerodynamic design. The active rear wing system can switch modes within 1 second, providing 415kg of downforce at a speed of 250km/h, a 25kg improvement over the previous generation.
The launch of the 849 Testarossa not only represents Ferrari's technological benchmark in the hybrid supercar field but also serves as a bridge connecting the brand's past and future.
By merging the classic name with cutting-edge technology, Ferrari has successfully reinforced the brand philosophy of "a legendary experience."
About the pricing of Ferrari 849 Testarossa
Finally, regarding the price, the starting price of the 849 Testarossa hardtop version is 460,000 euros (17,100,000 THB / 2,271,000 MYR), while the convertible version is priced at 500,000 euros (18,583,000 THB / 2,469,000 MYR), with deliveries planned to begin in 2026.
The main competitors of this model include hybrid supercars like the Lamborghini Revuelto and Aston Martin Valhalla, but in terms of performance parameters and track performance, the 849 Testarossa maintains a clear lead.
It is worth noting that Ferrari offers a 7-year free maintenance service and a 16-year hybrid system extended warranty for this new car.
