The
fastest and most powerful convertible Ferrari car is on this side of the Grand
Prix.The 2021 Ferrari SF90 Spider is the fastest and most powerful convertible
Ferrari on this side of the Scarlet SF1000 F1 car. Numbers: 986 horsepower;
from zero to 60 mph in about 2.5 seconds; in no more than 7.0 seconds, it can
reach a top speed of 124 mph and reach 211 mph. Oh, just like those F1 Ferrari
cars, it is a hybrid car
The SF90
Spider is of course a convertible version of the SF90 Stradale coupe introduced
earlier this year. Therefore, it shares most of the hardware and software of
the SF90 Stradale, including the plug-in hybrid powertrain, which not only
provides such excellent performance data, but also makes the coupe with close
to 1,000 horsepower the most approachable and inviting One of the inspiring
mid-range sports cars. The Ferrari engine you will drive
The 2021 Ferrari SF90 Spider Is so Powerful
The
powertrain includes a mid-mounted twin-turbo V-8 engine that produces 769 hp of
horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque, three electric motors, and a mid-mounted
single-module 7.9 kWh high-voltage battery. An electric motor is installed
between the engine and the eight-speed dual-clutch transaxle and produces 157
hp of power and 196 lb-ft of torque. Two electric motors of 97 hp and 62 lb-ft
are installed on the first two axles, each of which drives a wheel
This 7.9
kWh battery weighs only 158 pounds, allowing the SF90 to travel up to 15 miles
on pure electricity at a speed of up to 83 mph using the front electric motor.
The front electric motor can also provide front axle torque vectoring, thereby
improving agility and stability, and allowing the driver to power on earlier
than before relying only on rear axle traction at the exit of a curve. Ferrari
has always intended to manufacture a convertible version of the SF90, so the
car was designed to reduce the inevitable consequences of removing the fixed
roof (decreased structural rigidity and increased weight) from the beginning
Ferrari
Chief Technology Officer Michael Lights said. However, Spider's door has become
stronger and can meet the requirements of side collisions
Wrights
said the SF90 Spider weighs about 220 pounds heavier than Stradale. The
retractable hardtop (which can be raised or lowered in just 14 seconds) is made
of aluminum and saves 88 pounds compared to the steel hardtop. The continuous
development of the roof system, which made its debut on the Ferrari 458 Spider
in 2011, means that it only requires 3.5 cubic feet of stowage space, compared
to 5.0-7.0 cubic meters required by other systems
Leiters
said that with the roof in place, the aerodynamic efficiency and downforce
values of the SF90 Spider are actually the same as those of a coupe
Since
the storage box for the retractable hardtop is effectively located above the
engine compartment, the hot air is exhausted through the lateral blinds on the
rear screen of the SF90 Spider. The internal combustion engine and the
dual-clutch gearbox are cooled by the radiator at the front of the front wheel,
while the hot air from the front wheel radiator is directed to the side of the
underbody. This means that the air flowing along the sides of the car into the
intercooler vents in the front of the rear wheels should be kept as cold as
possible
Like
Stradale, Spider has Ferrari's innovative active rear wing system. In the
normal low resistance mode, air is exhausted through the ventilation holes
between the tail lights. In the high downforce mode, the central element of the
wing descends and prevents the flow of airflow, thereby effectively forming a
huge Gurney flap. The patented system is said to produce 860 pounds of
downforce at 155 mph. The downforce of the rear wheels is balanced at the front
axle through the diffusion system before the front wheels and the floor-mounted
vortex generator. Engineers claim that it has more time to adjust and adjust
Spider's aerodynamic performance in the wind tunnel, so its underbody now
generates the most downforce of all Ferraris on the road
Expected Sales
Ferrari
expects Spider to account for about 50% of SF90's total sales, and Michael
Leiter said it will attract different buyers from Stradale. He said:
"Customers who pay more attention to performance will choose this coupe
because it is lighter and more rigid, which is better. But for those who pay
more attention to driving emotions, the Spider is better solution"
The Engine Of The 2021 Ferrari SF90 Spider
In order
to enhance the emotional value of the SF90 Spider, Ferrari engineers spent a
lot of time enhancing the noise of the internal combustion engine, especially
when the roof fell, amplifying the sound of the internal combustion engine
through a resonance tube system with a heat-resistant film. Before the catalytic
converter and gasoline particulate filter silence it, the exhaust gas is
immediately discharged downstream of the turbocharger and then directed to the
cab. Spending time and money on such details can show how much Ferrari has
changed: in the past, it was just worried about making fast cars
The price of The 2021 Ferrari SF90 Spider
The first
SF90 spiders are scheduled to arrive in the United States next fall. Although
the price has not yet been determined, it is fair to say that if you ask for a
price, you can't afford it. The SF90 Stradale sticker is priced at $625,000.
Given the premium that Ferrari has traditionally charged for convertibles,
don't expect much change from $85,000
Like
Stradale, Spider will also provide an optional Assetto Fiorano kit, which adds
race-proven Multimatic shock absorbers, optimized for track use, made of carbon
fiber and titanium, which can help reduce overall weight by 46 pounds. The
particularly soft composite Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires are designed to
improve track performance in dry conditions and provide a special two-tone
paint scheme
