- Ferrari’s latest flagship, codenamed F250, promises to be one of the most advanced road cars ever built.
- The F250 is rumored to have an advanced 3.0-litre V6 engine paired with a tri-motor hybrid system.
- Rival hypercars like the McLaren W1 and Bugatti Tourbillon blend track performance with everyday drivability.
The hypercar wars are about to kick into high gear. Hot on the heels of McLaren’s W1 hybridized V8 monster and Bugatti’s unveiling of the Tourbillon with its massive V16, Ferrari is preparing its response: the successor to the LaFerrari. Currently codenamed F250, this exotic machine is poised to reclaim its spot at the top of the podium, marking the next chapter in Ferrari’s storied lineage of flagship hypercars.

Recent spy shots from Ferrari’s Maranello headquarters offer us a sneak peek into what promises to be one of the most technologically advanced and aggressive road cars ever produced, with cutting-edge design and an electrified V6 powertrain. Want to know more? Let’s take a deeper look.
Aero to The Max
Visually, the LaFerrari is a hard act to beat. However, this time, the Italian manufacturer has gone for a more track-focused aesthetic, with an aggressive low-slung profile and all the obligatory supercar bits such as air-cheating splitters, ducts, and precision-tuned spoilers for optimal aero performance.

adpushup.que.push(function() {
if (adpushup.config.platform !== “DESKTOP”){
adpushup.triggerAd(“5646c171-cb6e-4e2c-8440-49013ca72758”);

} });
If you squint just right, you’ll almost see a hint of McLaren Senna within the front fenders and a slight bit of Rimac Nevera in the side glass. The lower intake channels airflow through the hood and over the windscreen, and the oblique headlamps borrow from the 12Cilindri design school.
Cooling isn’t just functional here – it’s art. A deep-set side channel aids brake cooling, while the butterfly doors have a cut-through behind the glass that extends into a secondary intake, which feeds air into the engine. The rear view is dominated by one of the largest diffuser assemblies seen outside of F1, a one-piece exhaust, horizontally thin LED taillamp strips and an active spoiler that wraps tightly around the muscular rear haunches.
The Driver’s Outlook
While the interior of the F250 remains tightly under wraps for now (with our spies actively hunting for a glimpse inside), it’s expected to be an immersive cockpit blending luxury with advanced F1-inspired technology. The driving experience will be centered around you, with digital displays and minimalist controls, all designed to let you feel like you’re piloting a race car while wrapped in opulence.
var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]};
adpushup.que.push(function() {
if (adpushup.config.platform !== “DESKTOP”){
adpushup.triggerAd(“e96f0476-8b1d-4bb8-b64c-33f9656987b2”);

} });
Given the car’s exclusive nature, bespoke options will likely be a key selling point, allowing owners to personalize the interior to the finest details. Cutting-edge tech, including an advanced infotainment system and track-focused performance displays, will likely be part of the package, turning every drive into an event, whether you’re setting lap times or just going for a Sunday cruise.
Hybrid Witchcraft
The F250 is rumored to borrow heavily from Ferrari’s two-time Le Mans-winning 499P race car and utilize a hybrid-assisted V6 powertrain. Reports suggest a 3.0-litre V6 engine paired with a tri-motor hybrid system will generate upwards of 1,200 horsepower (895 kW).
If the whispers are to be believed, performance figures are expected to be equally as staggering, with conjecture pointing to 0 to 62 mph (0-100 km/h) times in under 2 seconds and 124 mph (200 km/h) arriving in less than 5 seconds. With a strong focus on weight reduction, the supercar will have a great shot at blitzing the current lap record around Ferrari’s home circuit at Fiorano.
Rivals and Reveal
With the arrival of the Bugatti Tourbillon and McLaren W1, Ferrari’s F250 is poised to complete a new holy trinity of hypercars, each still holding on to the roar of internal combustion while embracing the cutting-edge potential of hybrid technology. These three machines represent the last stand of ICE-powered flagships, and Ferrari’s entry looks like it’s ready to bring the heat.
Whatever its final name may be, Ferrari’s F250 is expected to break cover in the coming months. Exclusive previews have already been quietly offered to a group of select clients, but soon the world will get to see what the Maranello masters have been cooking up.
Now for the million-dollar question: Bugatti Tourbillon, McLaren W1, or Ferrari’s F250? Which of these next-gen titans do you think deserves to wear the crown as the ultimate king of hypercars?
