UPDATE (February 25, 2026): A new update from The Supercar Blog claims that Ferrari will be launching the supposed Amalfi Spider on March 12, 2026.
An Open-Top Surprise
Ferrari is reportedly set to unveil five new models this year, and one of them could be a convertible version of the Amalfi. According to The Supercar Blog, the Italian marque is expected to introduce the Amalfi Spider in the first half of March 2026. If accurate, it would effectively serve as the successor to the Roma Spider.
The Amalfi Spider is expected to closely mirror the coupe, which debuted last year as Ferrari’s newest entry-level offering. As with most convertibles, however, the absence of a fixed roof can result in reduced torsional rigidity — something that may be noticeable during aggressive, high-speed cornering. The model is said to feature a folding fabric roof and revisions to the rear decklid to accommodate the convertible setup.
The Heart of the Spider
Under the hood, the 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V8 is expected to be retained, producing 631 horsepower and 560 lb-ft of torque. That power unit is based on Ferrari’s F154 V8 architecture, which underpins several models in the lineup, though applications such as the SF90 Stradale feature hybrid assistance. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The coupe does 0-62 mph in 3.3 seconds, and the convertible should be about the same.
The report also stated that the Amalfi Spider could feature an active rear spoiler, Side Slip Control 6.1, and the automaker’s new brake-by-wire system. This setup is designed to deliver faster and more precise braking by using electronic pedal sensing and control to modulate brake pressure, rather than relying solely on a traditional mechanical linkage.
A Price for Open Air
With the additional hardware required for the retractable roof and structural reinforcements, the Amalfi Spider is expected to carry a higher price tag than the coupe. For reference, the Amalfi coupe starts at around $283,000, with U.S. sales expected to begin later this year.
If the Amalfi Spider materializes, it would be one of five new Ferrari models expected this year, including the Luce, the brand’s first all-electric vehicle. Rumors also point to more track-focused variants of existing models, such as the 12Cilindri, though nothing has been officially confirmed as of this writing.
Ultimately, the company is reportedly planning to roll out around 20 new models by 2030, with the lineup consisting of roughly 40 percent combustion cars, 40 percent hybrids, and 20 percent EVs.
