Ferrari goes electric with the Luce

Ferrari has revealed its first chapter into the EV market with the Luce.

The firm’s first electric all-wheel drive model, the Luce will arrive as a four-door coupe-esque grand tourer to rival the likes of the Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo.

Ferrari says that the car’s claimed range is currently under homologation, though it’s anticipated to achieve up to 329 miles between charges and due to its 800-volt on-board electrical system, 350kW DC rapid-charging is compatible, enabling up to 70kWh of power to be added in just 20 minutes.

Inside, the cabin blends modern technology with a conventional and analogue appearance. The steering wheel, regenerative braking paddles and instrument binnacle are all part of one assembly and the centre console houses the gear selector, armrest and key holder.

There is also an overhead control panel featuring the ‘Launch Mode’ function, which adjusts the torque and traction control settings to ensure the best launch from a standing start. Meanwhile, the Luce introduces Ferrari’s new 21-speaker 3000-watt audio system with speakers located in the headliner for a 3D sound experience.

Rear-seat passengers can also enjoy their own control panel, which allows them to see the car’s real-time driving data and have access to the climate control settings.

Prices and specifications for the Ferrari Luce have not been revealed at this stage, with further details set to be announced later this year.
