Launch of the Ferrari Luce

Ferrari has unveiled the Luce, the first fully electric vehicle produced by the Italian luxury car manufacturer. The vehicle, designated as Type F222, is a battery-electric mid-size luxury liftback sedan. The car was presented to reporters in Rome this week.

The Luce represents a significant departure from Ferrari's traditional offerings, as it is the first car in the company's history capable of seating five people. The vehicle is priced at $640,000.

Technical Specifications and Design

The Luce is a four-door vehicle featuring a high-performance powertrain that delivers over 1,000 horsepower. Specifically, the car is rated at 1,035 hp. In terms of efficiency and range, the vehicle offers a 500km range.

Design for the Luce was developed with the assistance of LoveFrom, a collective led by former Apple design chief Jony Ive. The resulting styling is described as sleek, with an emphasis on downforce. The interior is designed for high-tech luxury and a "family-friendly" layout to accommodate its five-passenger capacity.

Market Strategy and Context

Ferrari is positioning the Luce to attract a younger clientele and to compete more effectively in the Chinese market. The launch comes at a time when other luxury sports car competitors, including Lamborghini and Porsche, have scaled back their electric vehicle ambitions.

While the vehicle was officially presented to reporters this week, the Luce was first announced during the brand's Capital Markets Day on October 9, 2025. The official announcement of the launch was made via a news release on Sunday, May 25.
