Ferrari does a remarkable job concealing its future products from the public. It’s not an automaker known for leaks, but now and then, a tidbit of information surfaces that spools up the rumor mill to full power as everyone ponders what it could mean. The latest is a pair of recent trademarks that sound like the names of two new special edition models.
Ferrari trademarked SC40 and CZ26 last month, alongside requests to use both on automobiles. Beyond the filing, however, there's no information about these potential names or how Ferrari plans to use them. Automakers trademark names all the time that they never use, although that’s not usually how Ferrari operates.
There are plenty of upcoming opportunities for Ferrari to use either name if it chooses to, though.
Ferrari Launching Six Vehicles in 2025
In February, Ferrari announced it would reveal six new cars in 2025. One of those cars was supposed to be the brand’s new electric vehicle, but Ferrari pushed its full debut to 2026. We also got the 296 Speciale in April. That leaves four other potential debuts for the automaker to use the latest trademarks.
Ferrari has no shortage of one-off or limited-run special-edition models in its portfolio, and the CZ26 moniker seems perfect for such a car. The SC40 name is just as mysterious, but it sounds more like something Ferrari would stick on a mainstream model. The company discontinued the SF90 Stradale in 2024, so any replacement will need a name.
The company could also be preparing a new Icona Series model. In 2021, after Ferrari introduced the Daytona SP3, the company said it had ideas for five new Icona models, and we haven’t heard anything about a potential SP4. So it's possible these names could be reserved for such a car.
We won't have to wait long to find out.
