The 812 GTS also leaves the lineup

Ferrari's lineup has never been more comprehensive. The Maranello stable is always buzzing with activity, whether it's the introduction of a new model, a next-gen upgrade, or a special edition. While this month doesn't herald the arrival of any new vehicles, the Prancing Horse is bidding farewell to a couple of its prized thoroughbreds: the SF90 Stradale and the 812 GTS.

Ferrari detailed the departure of these icons in a document outlining the first half of 2024 sales results. The SF90 Stradale, which set new benchmarks for hybrid supercars, will soon be replaced by a new model that was first spied testing back in August 2023. Meanwhile, the 812 GTS's successor is already here in the form of the 12Cilindri Spider. It's worth noting that the SF90's farewell pertains only to the regular version, as deliveries of the hardcore SF90 XX began in the second quarter of the year.

The Italian marque also reported that deliveries of the Roma and 812 Competizione were down in Q2 2024, as both coupes near the end of their production runs. Details about the Roma's replacement remain elusive, but it's logical to expect the Roma Spider to stick around a bit longer since it's less than two years old. As for the 812 Competizione, its position in the lineup has already been taken by the 12Cilindri.

Through June, Ferrari shipped 7,044 cars worldwide, a modest increase of one percent compared to the first six months of 2023. The future looks promising for the storied supercar (and SUV) maker, with enough orders to keep the production lines humming well into 2026. This growth is driven by robust demand for the new 12Cilindri models.

Unlike Lamborghini, where the Urus is the cornerstone of sales, Ferrari has vowed not to pivot towards an SUV-centric lineup. To reinforce this commitment, production of the Purosangue will be capped at just 20 percent of the brand's total annual output.

Beyond a rich mix of internal combustion engine (ICE) and plug-in hybrid models, Ferrari's lineup is set to expand with the introduction of a fully electric model near the end of 2025. Recently spotted testing in a modified Maserati Levante body with fake quad exhausts, the final version is expected to look markedly different. And let's not forget, there's also a new hypercar on the horizon. Exciting times ahead for the Prancing Horse.
