Ferrari has unveiled Luce, its inaugural all-electric model, marking a significant shift for the iconic Italian sports car brand. Priced at over $500,000, Luce aims to combine luxury with performance, featuring a glass and polished-aluminum frame and the ability to reach speeds near 200 mph. However, the model has sparked debate among purists due to its lack of the traditional Ferrari engine roar and its design, which includes four doors and ample boot space, suggesting a shift towards a more practical luxury vehicle. The car offers a range of approximately 530 kilometers on a full charge, placing it behind competitors in the EV market. Amidst a cooling luxury EV market, Ferrari has revised its electrification goals, now aiming for 20% of its lineup to be all-electric by 2030, down from an earlier target of 40%. This change comes as the company faces investor skepticism, highlighted by a significant drop in stock value following a lackluster growth forecast.
