FERRARI

World economic situation in crisis, but Ferrari no stroke

In general, car prices are rising, but that doesn't dampen demand for some brands, as, for example, Ferrari is pleased to report that its order book is large enough to keep the factory fully occupied until 2025.

The figures should increase even more now that Purosangue is available for sale again. The Maranello SUV with a V12 engine has been on pause due to the huge response from customers who wanted to purchase the model. This was announced by the Italian brand in its document relating to the results of the first quarter of 2023.

As has been usual in recent years, deliveries increased between January and March of this year. Ferrari has placed 3,567 cars in the hands of its customers, which is 9.7% more than in the first three months of 2022.

As well as adding the Purosangue to its growing portfolio, it has also launched the Roma Spider to fill the void left after the demise of the Portofino M. Before the end of the year, three other vehicles will be introduced, so the home of Maranello is on track to beat the historic sales record of 2022, with 13,221 units.

The identity of the three new cars has not been officially announced, but one of them is expected to be an even more extreme version of the SF90 Stradale, a circuit-focused derivative.

Another new Ferrari is likely to replace the F812 Superfast, given the recent snappy photos that showed a prototype in production bodywork. Undoubtedly, these are vehicles to which we will be very attentive.

Speaking of blatant photos, remember that the LaFerrari's replacement has already been photographed on public roads, before its possible launch in 2024. Let's not forget that 2025 will also be the year in which we will also see the first 100% electric Ferrari, which will mean a radical change for a sports car manufacturer.

The year 2025 will also mark the beginning of the end for internal combustion engines at the Maranello home. For 2030, the company predicts that conventionally powered vehicles will represent just 20% of the total volume. And certainly, over the next few years, the order backlog will continue to be very high.
