Ferrari is launching its first fully-electric car, the Luce, on Monday in Rome, priced at over €500,000 ($586,000). This four-door model, designed in collaboration with Jony Ive's studio LoveFrom, boasts a top speed of 310 kph (193 mph). Despite the uncertain demand for electric sports cars, Ferrari is making a bold move to connect with a new generation of affluent buyers. The company has reduced its electrification targets, now aiming for fully electric vehicles to comprise 20% of its lineup by 2030, down from an earlier goal of 40%. The Luce represents a strategic shift for Ferrari, which has faced challenges in maintaining its identity while adapting to new electric technologies. The car is expected to appeal to younger consumers, as high fuel prices and evolving market preferences create new opportunities. Initial client feedback has been positive, with deliveries slated to start in October.
