Ferrari’s First Electric Car Arrives: Everything We Know About the New Ferrari Luce

Dubai: A new chapter has begun with Ferrari’s new model, the Ferrari Luce. The meaning of the Luce is ‘’light’’ in Italian, which marks a new start as Ferrari moves from petrol engine to pure electric power for the first time, bringing a new era of performance, innovation and luxury under the legendary Ferrari badge.

The studio led by former Apple Designer Jony Ive, who blends classic Ferrari heritage with a futuristic design approach that feels unlike any Ferrari before it. For the UAE buyers who always look for a luxury and high-end car, the Luce offers a rare mix of status, space, new advancements and electric performance in one package.

With over 1,000 horsepower, four doors, and five seats, it is designed for those who want something that effortlessly stands out on Sheikh Zayed Road.

Let’s get into the details below and see what makes this model so special!

Why the Luce Is Not Like Other Ferraris 

The Ferrari Luce is not like any other Ferrari model seen before. This brand has spent over 75 years building cars with roaring engines and two-door bodies. The Luce is one of them, but it breaks that pattern in every aspect. For the first time, Ferrari comes with an electric powertrain, the first to provide four doors and the first to seat five passengers comfortably.

It's made at Ferrari's new e-Building in Maranello, the Luce combines Ferrari heritage with a bold electric future. If we look closely, this brand has tested hybrid technology in Formula 1, then moved towards it to road cars in 2019, and now represents its electric strength.

This reflects that the brand did not rush the decision and prepared one of the best models for the new generation driver who prefers clean technology, while keeping loyal fans excited about what comes next.
