  • The automaker anticipates the percentage of electrified sales to grow to 80% by 2030
  • Ferrari’s first EV will debut this fall

Ferrari delivered a record 13,752 vehicles in 2024, up 0.7% from the year before, and for the first time, more than half of the annual tally were hybrids.

While announcing its financial results for the past year on Tuesday, Ferrari said 51% of its sales in 2024 were hybrids, with the remaining 49% powered purely by gas engines.

Hybrids have traditionally been about curbing emissions and fuel bills, not something one normally considers when hopping behind the wheel of a Ferrari. Over the past decade, though, hybrids have taken on a high-performance sheen, thanks mostly to the introduction of hybrid sports cars where the electrical side of the equation is there to boost performance as well as deliver those other attributes that hybrid technology is good for.

With hybrid technology no longer being a taboo in performance circles, Ferrari is plowing ahead with the launch of more electrified models and will even introduce its first electric vehicle this fall. The last two generations of Ferrari’s flagship special series supercars, the LaFerrari and this year’s F80, are also both electrified.

The F80 is a plug-in hybrid that combines a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 and a trio of electric motors for a combined output of 1,184 hp, the highest of any Ferrari road car to date. Other hybrid Ferraris include the now-discontinued SF90, as well as the 296. Both of those models are also plug-in hybrids.

Eventually, due to emissions regulations, almost every Ferrari is likely to be either a hybrid or an EV. The automaker said it currently anticipates that hybrids and EVs will make up 80% of deliveries by 2030, with the remainder being gas-engine-only models. Looking further ahead, Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna last year suggested that synthetic fuel may be an option for keeping gas engines alive in a world of zero emissions.

The 13,752 vehicles Ferrari delivered in 2024 set a new record for the brand, but considering the modest 0.7% increase from the previous year, the automaker is likely capping its sales. Demand remains exceptionally strong, as Ferrari’s order books are full for the next two years.
