Ferrari Luce: Full Specs, Price, Range and Release Date for Ferrari’s First Electric Car

For three years it was a rumor. For eight months it was a chassis on a stage. On May 25, 2026, beneath the sweeping concrete sail of the Vela di Calatrava in Rome, it finally became a car. The Ferrari Luce — the model the world knew as the Elettrica — is the first fully electric Ferrari in the company’s 79-year history, and nothing about it follows the script anyone expected. This is the complete picture: every confirmed specification, the price, the delivery timeline, and why this four-door changes the conversation for the entire exotic market.

Ferrari Luce: Key Specs at a Glance

From Elettrica to Luce: A Reveal in Three Acts

Ferrari staged this launch like one of its rarest special editions. Act one came in October 2025 at Capital Markets Day in Maranello, where the production-ready rolling chassis was unveiled inside the new e-building — motors, battery, and architecture, but no body. Act two arrived in February 2026 in San Francisco, where Ferrari revealed the interior and retired the Elettrica working title in favor of Luce — Italian for “light.” Act three was Rome, on the anniversary of Ferrari’s first-ever race victory in the city in 1947, where the complete car finally appeared. The three-stage rollout kept the Luce in headlines for eight consecutive months before a single customer car was built.

The Design: Jony Ive’s Ferrari

The Luce’s exterior and interior were shaped in collaboration with LoveFrom, the creative collective founded by former Apple design chief Jony Ive and Marc Newson, working alongside Flavio Manzoni’s Ferrari Styling Centre over more than five years. The result is unlike any Ferrari before it: a low four-door liftback defined by an extraordinarily pure glasshouse that wraps below the beltline, conventional front doors paired with rear-hinged coach doors — a first for the marque — and a cabin built around machined physical controls rather than touchscreen sprawl. Glass buttons, anodized aluminum dials, and mechanical switchgear give the interior the feel of a precision instrument, a deliberate rejection of the screen-first template that dominates the EV segment.

It is also the most practical Ferrari ever made. Five real seats and a liftback tail put it in territory not even the Purosangue — until now Ferrari’s only four-door — has occupied.

Powertrain and Performance

Four permanent-magnet synchronous motors — two per axle, all designed and assembled in-house at Maranello — deliver a combined 1,036 hp on an 800-volt electrical backbone. The front units are derived directly from the F80 hypercar program and can decouple entirely, turning the Luce into a rear-wheel-drive grand tourer at the twist of the e-Manettino. Independent control of each motor enables genuine four-wheel torque vectoring, and the third-generation active suspension evolved from the Purosangue and F80 manages a curb weight of roughly 4,980 pounds.

The numbers land squarely in hypercar territory: 0–62 mph in 2.5 seconds, 0–124 mph in 6.8 seconds, and a 193-mph top speed. Drive modes scale the character — an efficiency-focused rear-drive setting for touring, intermediate modes for daily driving, and full output reserved for maximum-attack launches.

Battery, Range, and Charging

The 122 kWh battery pack sits beneath the floor, built from high-density pouch cells into modules assembled at Ferrari’s own e-building. WLTP range is rated at 530 km — about 329 miles — with DC fast charging at up to 350 kW. Ferrari’s engineering brief prioritized sustained performance and thermal stability over headline range figures: this is a battery designed to survive repeated hard launches, not just a commute. An eight-year powertrain warranty, unusual in this segment, underlines Maranello’s confidence in hardware it developed entirely in-house — a program that generated more than 60 new patents.

The Sound: Real, Not Synthetic

Ferrari’s answer to the silence problem is the Luce’s most debated feature. Rather than piping a fake combustion note through the speakers, accelerometers on the powertrain capture the genuine vibration signature of the motors and amplify it — the way an electric guitar amplifies a real string. The sound is authentic to the machine, unique to the Luce, and unlike anything else on the road. Whether it stirs the soul the way a V12 does is the question every first drive will try to answer — and it lands at a moment when regulation is already rewriting what performance cars are allowed to sound like.

Price and Availability

The Luce starts at €550,000 — around $640,000 at current exchange rates — positioning it above the Purosangue and among the most expensive series-production EVs ever offered. Order books are open, with European deliveries beginning in October 2026 and U.S. cars following in 2027. True to form, allocations flow through the existing dealer network with priority to established Ferrari clients. This is a standing production model, not a limited series — Ferrari is betting the Luce becomes a pillar of the range, not a one-off statement.

Why the Luce Matters More Than Any Ferrari in Decades

No product decision in Maranello’s modern history carries stakes like this one. Ferrari enters the electric era last among the major players — after the Taycan, after the Eletre, after Rimac — but it arrives with the most to lose and the most to prove. CEO Benedetto Vigna has framed the car precisely: an addition to the lineup, not a transition away from combustion. Ferrari’s 2030 product plan still calls for 40 percent internal-combustion models, 40 percent hybrids, and just 20 percent EVs, and the 2026 lineup doubles down on gated manual shifters and naturally aspirated V12s even as the Luce ships.

The market’s first reaction was turbulent — investors punished the stock at both the technology reveal and the Rome debut, and the styling divided the faithful overnight. We examined that backlash, and why it may be misreading the car entirely, in our companion piece on why the Luce is the most controversial Ferrari of the modern era. The deeper stakes were clear long before Rome: as we argued when the program was still called Elettrica, this launch matters more than any other because it tests whether Ferrari’s magic transfers beyond combustion at all. Either outcome moves the collector market — including the values of every combustion Ferrari, which stand to benefit from the contrast no matter how the Luce lands.

Ferrari Luce: Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Ferrari Luce the same car as the Ferrari Elettrica?

Yes. Elettrica was the working title used throughout development and the October 2025 technical reveal. Ferrari announced the production name — Luce — in February 2026 alongside the interior debut.

How much does the Ferrari Luce cost?

The starting price is €550,000, roughly $640,000 before options. Personalization and performance packages are expected to push well-specified cars considerably higher.

When do Ferrari Luce deliveries begin?

European deliveries begin in October 2026, with United States deliveries following in 2027. Priority goes to existing Ferrari clients through the official dealer network.

How fast is the Ferrari Luce?

Peak output is 1,036 hp from four in-house electric motors, delivering 0–62 mph in 2.5 seconds, 0–124 mph in 6.8 seconds, and a 193-mph top speed.

What Comes Next

Three milestones will shape the Luce story through the rest of 2026: the first independent drive reviews, official EPA range certification for the U.S. market, and the pace of early allocations — the truest measure of whether Ferrari’s clientele follows the brand into the electric era. We will update this guide as each one lands.

The Ferrari Luce is Ferrari’s first fully electric production car — a four-door, five-seat, 1,036-hp liftback revealed in Rome on May 25, 2026, designed with Jony Ive’s LoveFrom, priced from €550,000, with European deliveries starting October 2026.
