950 hp, RWD, and 6.3L V12 + HY-KERS electric motor (hybrid) define the Ferrari LaFerrari. It is listed at 2,767 lb with a starting price around $1.40M. The catalog lists 0–60 mph in 2.4 seconds and a 217 mph top speed.

Look past the badge and the Ferrari LaFerrari is a study in trade-offs — every performance car is, and this one wears its choices openly. 950 hp, RWD, and 6.3L V12 + HY-KERS electric motor (hybrid) define the Ferrari LaFerrari. It is listed at 2,767 lb with a starting price around $1.40M. The catalog lists 0–60 mph in 2.4 seconds and a 217 mph top speed.
Propulsion comes from a 6.3l v12 + hy-kers electric motor (hybrid) setup driving through a RWD layout, with 950 hp available essentially the moment you ask for it. Electric drive removes the gearshift entirely, so the 2.4-second 0–60 mph time is delivered as one uninterrupted pull rather than a sequence of ratios. At roughly 2,767 lb it carries about 2.9 lb per horsepower, which is the number that actually predicts how it feels on a road rather than on a spec sheet.
A few things worth knowing mechanically. Dry weight — 2,767 lb.
Hypercars are the segment where engineering budgets stop being questioned: carbon structures, active aerodynamics and drivetrains developed for a production run measured in dozens rather than thousands. At around $1,400,000, the LaFerrari is priced as a considered, low-volume purchase, and our value score of 6.8/10 reflects what you get for that against its direct rivals rather than against the market as a whole.
Owned properly, it rewards drivers who care about how a car does something more than how fast it did it.
Practical guide for everything a new owner asks on day one — starting the car, finding the gear selector, drive modes, infotainment, driver aids, and easy-to-miss features.
Step on the brake, then press the red Engine Start button on the steering-wheel — left spoke. The car beeps, the cluster flashes, and the V8/V12 fires. On PHEV models (296/SF90), the start button engages eDrive silently; you must press 'eManettino → Performance' to wake the ICE.
Ferrari uses steering-wheel-mounted carbon paddles plus center-console buttons labeled R, Auto, M, and Launch — there is no traditional stick. Press the brake, then tap 'Auto' to engage drive or pull the right paddle to manually grab 1st.
Drive modes are accessed via the Manettino dial on the steering wheel. Available modes typically include Wet, Sport, Race, CT-Off, ESC-Off, eManettino: eDrive/Hybrid/Performance/Qualify (PHEV). Each mode reshuffles throttle mapping, steering weight, adaptive dampers (if equipped), exhaust valves, and stability-control thresholds. On performance trims, an 'Individual' or 'Custom' slot lets you save your favorite combination so you can recall it with one click instead of nesting through menus.
The driver display is a Fully digital 16-inch curved cluster. Use the steering-wheel left thumb-pad to cycle layouts (Classic, Sport, Navigation, Minimal). When in Sport / Track mode the cluster automatically swaps to a wide tach with gear indicator and tire-temperature readout. The head-up display brightness, height, and content are configured from Settings → Displays → HUD.
Infotainment runs on Dual-screen with passenger display (296/SF90/12 Cilindri). Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard; pair from Settings → Connections the first time, then it auto-connects whenever your phone is in range. Steering-wheel push-to-talk wakes the in-car assistant for nav, climate, calls, and messaging without touching the screen. The main display also hosts vehicle-specific apps: tire pressures, performance data recorder (where fitted), drive-mode customizer, and the camera views.
Standard driver aids include adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. Toggle each system individually from the driver-assist menu (steering-wheel left-pad → Assistance). Highway-driving assist (hands-off in marked lanes on supported roads), automatic lane-change on indicator tap, traffic-jam assist for stop-and-go, and a 360° surround camera with transparent-hood mode are all available and worth enabling for the first time before driving in heavy traffic.
DC fast-charging happens through the CCS1 (or NACS, for newer 2025+ US-market models) port. Plug in, the car negotiates power automatically — typical 10–80% takes 18–28 minutes on a 350 kW charger. Level-2 home charging via J1772 covers a full charge overnight (8–11 hours). The car app schedules charging during cheap off-peak hours and pre-conditions the cabin while still plugged in so you don't drain range warming up.
Beyond the physical key, this car supports Ferrari smart key with passive entry. Set up phone-as-key from the Ferrari Connect app: it provisions a secure credential to your phone's wallet so a tap on the door handle unlocks the car and placing the phone on the wireless charging pad authorizes ignition. You can also share temporary keys to family members (with optional speed and area limits on performance trims) directly from the app.
