Ferrari Luce, Maranello's first ever electric car (opens in new tab)

I’m a big fan of the interior & Ive design (and am not always a fan if his). The exterior is pretty cool from the front and back … but from the side and at angles it just doesn’t register as Ferrari at ALL. Seems to scream for a longer wheelbase but that’s not the whole issue. It just looks very mid-market from those angles.

The gas engine Farraris are a pinnacle of design for an engine, gas tank, drive train, and human occupant.

It would have been trivial for Ferrari to just make their classic style but now, electric! And it would have been full of compromise.

Ferrari has made, in their opinion, the best design for the constraints and challenges of an Electric Vehicle. 4 motors, battery, human.

Good for them for putting real effort into it. And not just making a cash grab.

Looks luke a cheap electric knockoff in some low budget racing game. It does not look like a ferrari at all.

What is the target demographic? The specs seem... nice. Nothing particularly special compared to the likes of Lucid, etc.

The design though, it seems very... uninspired? It has hints of throwback in the design, but imo it does not have the look of luxury or sports car.

Why couldn't they have made it look like a normal Ferrari.

It's just a powertrain change why mess up all the styling.

Looks like a melted down Pontiac Aztec. Though, I don’t see Walter White forking over money for it.

If the battery is under the passenger compartment, you're pretty much stuck with a sedan-derived coupe look. The performance better be super ultra special, otherwise Ferrari had no need to make a car that looks like that.

It's lovely and I bet they sell every one they build.

Cleo Abrams dropped an interview with the creators:

Cars like this is why restomods are getting big

Maybe I just have a bad taste for cars, but this looks awful. Uninspiring. Looks like a Tesla with a Ferrari logo.

Edit: I do love the analog buttons in the interior though. I despise those big screens with all the controls, and no tactile feedback.

$600k and they still won't give you physical climate controls.

Parsimonious product design with IMHO out of date conception of what's "cool". I think Ive is pretty washed up at this point.

I reall don't know if I like this or not.

Love the interior. Hate the exterior.

The front looks like a vacuum cleaner

I hate 20 inch, floating, glued to the dash tablets with such a passion. It cannot be such a huge monetary difference to have physical switches for the AC compared to this attention grabbing accident causing contraption that was never meant to be put in a human commandeered vehicle.

LMAO, this thing is so ugly. It looks like a generic Chinese EV. Interior looks good, but the exterior is just a boat. 5.05m long, 2m wide, 5000lbs heavy. Looks like a mix of the Jag Epace and the Mustang EV/Mache

Can't believe they are asking 600k for this thing.

It is almost like Ferrari is trying to punk its customers.

Ps. Everyone is hating it on FerrariChat
