2023 was Ferrari’s best year ever

Like other supercar manufacturers, Ferrari has reason to celebrate 2023, as it was Ferrari’s best year ever. In the past twelve months, Ferrari delivered 13,663 cars worldwide, which is 3 percent more than in 2022.

Ferrari’s biggest market was Europe, where 6,063 cars were delivered, which is 1.8 percent more than in 2022. In North and South America Ferrari delivered 3,811 units (+10.6%), in Asia (China, Taiwan and Hong Kong) 1,490 units (+4%), and in the rest of the Asia Pacific region Ferrari sold 2,299 units (+2%)

This result is great, but even greater is the fact that all current models are sold out for the year 2025, so all interested buyers have to wait at least two years for their cars. However, Ferrari has already announced the arrival of three new models in the coming years.

There is not much information about the new models. The first of the new ones is supposed to be the successor to the 812 Superfast model, caught in spy photos during testing with a Ferrari Roma body, and is predicted to use a V12 engine.

Some rumors say that the second one could be the F250 as the successor to the LaFerrari model, which was produced between 2013 and 2018 in 710 examples as a coupe (500 examples) and Aperta (210 examples).

Also, rumor has it that Ferrari will not use a V12 engine this time, but a plug-in hybrid twin-turbo V6 engine based on the engine used by the 296 GTB and GT3 models. This model will be limited to 828 copies in three versions: the coupe (599 copies) which should arrive this year, 30 copies of the most powerful XX version which will enter production in 2027 and the convertible (199 copies) which will arrive by the end of the decade.

When it comes to the third model, no one knows what the decision might be. Some predict that Ferrari could introduce an entirely new model. Only time will tell.
