Why would you just replace the battery ?
This chart may have gray and silver confused. The “typical names” under “Silver”, such as Grigio silverstone and Ferro, are actually Gray colors. Grigio Alloy, down at the bottom is more of a silver color. Traditional Ferrari silver is Argento Nurburgring. Also, Sanu silver is an epic color btw, have to see in person to truly appreciate it. Anecdotally, my experience is that gray commands more value than silver, so maybe Grigio is in fact not dead last! All that being said, buy a color that makes you smile a bit wider when you’re walking to your car!
I think it's more than just drivetrain - i.e. includes windows, AC, etc. But it doesn't include host/gasket failure and anything stemming from such failures. I think the new car warranty does but not positive.
Answer: Degradation or eventual failure outside the factory warranty and government regs. The cost to replace the high-voltage hybrid battery (HVB) in a Ferrari SF90 or 296 is approximately $20,000, excluding labor costs, so add in another $10,000 (just a wag) and it's $30,000+/-. So for $37,500, you get full warranty on the car, plus an automatic replacement of the battery. See the table below. The "Warranty Extension Hybrid," is the extended warranty that extends the full factory warranty, and IF you keep it continually, then in year #8, Ferrari will replace the battery whether it needs it or not. AFTER year #8, you can get a "Power Hybrid" warranty, but it is limited to the powertrain/hybrid system, and IF you keep that one for another 8 years (I know this doesn't apply to anyone here), at year #16, they will replace the battery again. This is all outside of a failure of the battery within 5 years (Ferrari), or any Federal requirement that requires a replacement within 8 years due to failure. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Ferrari hybrid warranty is 7yrs, not 5- and that’s assuming they don’t have to honor the Federal Law (8 yr). Hybrid batteries have a long history of longevity exceeding 100,000 miles. Ferrari has superior cooling technology. Nothing lasts forever and I don’t understand the FUD regarding Ferrari’s hybrid. On the other hand, cars that aren’t properly maintained- not driven and not plugged in- will have problems- and the warranty may not even cover these cars. Image Unavailable, Please Login
So does this wrranty extension 3-8 years, being a "whole car warranty" is this a bumper to bumper warranty? Suspesion components etc. ?
I think we’re making too much of this hybrid battery issue cause I did the same thing a month ago and I realized that these prices are sky high for right now they will come down and I still got six years left of warranty on the hybrid, so why worry so much now?
... and most Ferrari owners will not keep their car for 8 years, so why would they pay in advance for a following owner who'll get a battery replacement at the 8th year?
