Ferrari Lowers Luce Electric Car Starting Price to 519,000 Euros
Ferrari confirmed a starting price of roughly 519,000 euros, equivalent to about $560,800, for its first fully electric vehicle, the Luce, according to motor16.com. That figure lands roughly 74,000 euros below the initial estimates circulating when the Italian manufacturer first presented the model to the public. Despite the downward adjustment from early speculation, the five-seater maintains a top-tier positioning in the ultra-luxury segment, outpacing the most expensive versions of established competitors.
Specifications Powering the First Electric Ferrari
The technical sheet features four electric motors—one positioned at each wheel—delivering a combined output of 1,035 horsepower. The Luce accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds, drawing power from a 122 kWh battery pack. That configuration yields an estimated driving range of about 450 kilometers, or roughly 280 miles, under United States testing protocols. The vehicle features the largest factory wheels ever fitted to a production Ferrari, alongside a rear bench seat accommodating three passengers, marking a first for the brand’s layout history.
Production Choices Behind the Design and Transmission
The exterior and interior design emerged from a collaboration between industrial designers Jony Ive and Marc Newson, introducing a distinct visual language that diverges from traditional Maranello aesthetics. Instead of a conventional gearbox, the steering wheel paddles control torque delivery and regenerative braking levels. The vehicle utilizes a patented acoustic system designed to amplify the actual mechanical sounds generated by the rear axle rather than playing synthesized combustion noises through the cabin speakers. The overall body measures roughly five centimeters longer and sits five centimeters lower than the Purosangue.
US Deliveries Begin in 2027 with European Pricing Pending
Deliveries in the United States are scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2027, where the model will encounter buyers familiar with high-end luxury benchmarks like the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. European pricing remains unconfirmed through an official regional list, as current figures rely entirely on currency conversions from the US tariff. Industry analysts note that when import models eventually arrive in markets like Spain between 2027 and 2028, local taxes and standard equipment requirements will push the final retail price well above the raw currency conversion.
