Exclusive: Unveiling of Ferrari’s Highly Anticipated LaFerrari Successor Tomorrow
The Future is Unveiled: Ferrari Teases its Long-Awaited LaFerrari Successor
Ferrari has been keeping us on our toes, and today, they dropped a 10-second teaser that’s got us all revved up! A red sheet covering a supercar, combined with an October 17 debut date at 8 a.m. Eastern – it’s clear we’re looking at something big. But, is it the lauded LaFerrari successor?
Back in June, a select few Ferrari fans got a sneak peek of Maranello’s upcoming project, and let’s just say they hinted at some serious tech borrowed from the 499P, a two-time Le Mans-winning Ferrari. This engine powerhouse packs a 3.0-liter, 571-horsepower twin-turbocharged V6, along with a 268-hp electric motor on the front axle. But here’s the kicker – there’s talk of adding more motors to the mix, taking us to places Le Mans Hypercar-class regulations can’t.

"Something new is on the horizon. #FerrariSupercars #Ferrari"
But, Ferrari’s being coy, refusing to confirm what we’re looking at. Or, are they? The Ferrari Hypercar Le Mans team account has also joined in on the hype, fueling speculation further.
A Glimpse of the Future: A Cloaked Car
The teaser pans around a dimly-lit garage, showcasing the shadowy figure under the red sheet. At first glance, it seems to be a LaFerrari with a more prominent aero profile – massive rear wing, narrow cockpit, and pointy front fenders. One thing’s for sure – it’s a beast of a car.
Ferrari vice-chairman Piero Ferrari confirmed to Top Gear in June that a LaFerrari successor was in the works. "Every ten years, we have one." Since the LaFerrari launched in 2013, the brand is due for a refresh.
For now, we’re left to speculate. Will this be the volume-turbocharged, potentially tri-motor hybrid of our dreams? Only time will tell. For now, we can only keep our eyes peeled for October 17, when the mystery will unfold.
