In the third quarter, deliveries of hybrids outpaced ICEs at Ferrari. The surprising revelation was made in an official document presented to investors.

3,188 vehicles with the fabled Prancing Horse were delivered, an increase of 271 vehicles compared to the third quarter of 2002.

Of the total volume, 51.3 percent were hybrids and 48.7 percent were pure gasoline cars. Ferrari's product portfolio in Q3 2023 included nine ICE models and four hybrids. 

As a refresher, the Italian brand's first all-electric model isn't due until 2025. Meanwhile, demand in the third quarter was fueled by the 296 and SF90 series, both of which feature plug-in hybrid powertrains. These are the company's first PHEVs, as the LaFerrari didn't have a charging port.

It remains to be seen if this will become the new norm, as the mighty V12-powered Purosangue was in the ramp-up phase, so the high-performance SUV could tip the scales in favor of the ICE. Spy shots have revealed that there's also an 812 replacement on the horizon, and that it might also skip hybridization. However, even Ferrari is not immune to stricter emissions regulations, so it will have to adapt.
