The SF90 Stradale launches Ferrari into the future – ONE AMAZING RIDE!

No stone was left unturned, while no corners were cut when they thought about their next plug-in car. It might not be the first plug-in but it is the first mid-engine, all-wheel-drive with three electric motors.
The brilliance of this three motor system has allowed for Ferrari to bypass the reverse gear and push out a lighter car because of losing one gear on it.

That’s right; the SF90 Stradale does not have a standard reverse gear – it can only move in reverse on power provided by front electric motors. (via topspeed.com)"
Impressive use of engineering by Ferrari. Changes were made almost everywhere. From a smaller flywheel to repositioning the turbos, everything is different for the petrol-electrical supercar.
"The heart of the car is Ferrari’s award-winning ‘F154’ twin-turbocharged V8, bored out from the 3902cc of the 488 Pista to 3990cc. Engineers claim a complete redesign, including new combustion, intake and exhaust systems, while a narrow cylinder head, with a Ferrari V8 first in a new 350-bar direct injection system, features.
