The cylinder heads of the engine are now narrower and the all-new central fuel injectors run at a pressure of 35 MPa (5,100 psi).

The new transmission is 10 kg (22 lb) lighter and more compact than the existing 7-speed transmission used by the other offerings of the manufacturer partly due to the absence of a dedicated reverse gear since reversing is provided by the electric motors mounted on the front axle.

The steering wheel is carried over from the F8 but now features multiple capacitive touch interfaces to control the various functions of the car.

The eSSC is combined with eTC (electric Tractional Control), a new brake-by-wire system which combines the traditional hydraulic braking system and electric motors to provide optimal regenerative braking and torque vectoring.

[14] It is the fastest Ferrari road car on their Fiorano Circuit as of 2020, seven tenths of a second faster than the LaFerrari.

[15] The manufacturer claims that the SF90 Stradale can generate 390 kg (860 lb) of downforce at 250 km/h (155 mph) due to new findings in aero and thermal dynamics.

The main feature of the design is the twin-part rear wing which is an application of the drag reduction system (DRS) used in Formula One.

The rear-end of the car carries over many iconic Ferrari Styling elements such as the flying buttresses.

It uses racing-derived Multimatic shocks and lightweight carbon fibre parts embedded in the door panels and underbody.

The Assetto Fiorano also employs a lightweight titanium exhaust system and carbon wheels.

Unlike the track-only Ferrari FXX, 599XX, and FXX-K models, the SF90 XX is road legal, although it is track focused.

The SF90 XX is designed to provide one of the most efficient aerodynamic performance of any road-legal car in Ferrari's history.
