Ferrari is preparing to introduce the open-top version of its latest grand tourer, with the Amalfi Spider expected to make its official debut in the near future. Following the launch of the coupe, the convertible variant will continue Ferrari’s long-standing tradition of offering front-engine GTs with open-air capability.
Early indications suggest the Amalfi Spider will closely mirror the coupe’s elegant proportions while adopting a retractable hardtop roof. Ferrari has refined this formula over recent generations, designing folding metal roofs that maintain a clean silhouette when raised while delivering full open-air drama at the push of a button. The Spider is expected to preserve the coupe’s balanced stance, with only subtle design adjustments to accommodate the roof mechanism.
Power is likely to come from the same twin-turbocharged V8 found in the Amalfi coupe, mounted at the front and sending power to the rear wheels. Performance figures should remain largely unchanged, although the Spider may carry a modest weight increase due to the structural reinforcements required to maintain rigidity without a fixed roof. Ferrari typically engineers its convertibles to retain sharp handling characteristics, so any difference in dynamics is expected to be minimal.
Visually, changes beyond the retractable roof should be restrained. The rear deck will likely be reshaped to house the folding mechanism, and minor aerodynamic refinements may be introduced to manage airflow when driving with the top down. Unique wheel designs or trim details could further distinguish the Spider from its coupe counterpart.
As with the standard Amalfi, the Spider is positioned as a refined grand tourer rather than a track-focused special. The emphasis will likely remain on high-speed comfort, advanced driver assistance systems, premium interior craftsmanship and a balanced blend of performance and everyday usability. Ferrari traditionally staggers coupe and Spider unveilings, so an official reveal could arrive within months.
When it does, the Amalfi Spider will reinforce Ferrari’s heritage of combining front-engine performance with open-top elegance — delivering the familiar soundtrack of a twin-turbo V8 under an open sky, wrapped in unmistakable Italian style.
