Ferrari 849 Testarossa Launch

Ferrari Unveils the 849 Testarossa in Sydney: A Bold New Chapter in Hybrid Performance

Ferrari Sydney hosted guests at the Australian debut event on October 10th, marking the regional launch of the Ferrari 849 Testarossa, the brand’s most powerful series-production model to date. Held just weeks after its global debut in Milan, the Sydney reveal brought together Ferrari clients, enthusiasts, and media for a first look at the marque’s latest plug-in hybrid supercar.

The 849 Testarossa, available in Coupe and Spider variants, combines a re-engineered twin-turbo V8 with three electric motors, delivering a staggering 1,050 horsepower and a top speed of 330 km/h. Acceleration figures are equally impressive, with 0–100 km/h achieved in just 2.3 seconds

Reviving the legendary Testarossa name, the new model blends Ferrari’s racing heritage with cutting-edge technology, including ABS Evo, FIVE (Ferrari Integrated Vehicle Estimator), and active aerodynamics. The hybrid system allows for short-range electric driving, though the car’s true purpose is high-performance motoring.

The Sydney launch underscored Ferrari’s commitment to innovation and exclusivity, offering guests a glimpse into the future of high-performance luxury.

Following the regional launch, Ferrari Sydney hosted a series of viewings within the showroom, giving clients the opportunity to experience the 849 Testarossa up close in an intimate setting. These exclusive appointments allowed guests to explore the vehicle’s design, technology, and performance capabilities in detail, guided by Ferrari product specialists.
