Ferrari “Elettrica”

As long as they don't make many.

The level of whining on this thread is unbelievable...

No one has seen the car; it's been designed by an exterior styling firm, so why speculate on imaginary views that echo Manzoni's gimmicks?

The drop in the share price has nothing to do with electric vehicles, but with forecasts for 2030 that are less crazy than anticipated—the share price remains incredibly high. Read some financial analyses...

The e-building is already operational, part of the Purosangue and Testarossa production lines are located there, and it was never said that it was 100% dedicated to electric vehicles. The battery assembly lines are in the testing phase; I saw them in operation yesterday.

Ferrari knows very well that this car is not primarily intended for Ferraristi. They are announcing that 20% of their catalog will be electric by 2030, while 40% will remain combustion-powered and 40% hybrid. Does it bother you so much to see two electric models in the range when the V12 will still be there? What must Porsche or Lamborghini fans be saying!

 

This is the new paint shop, due to be opened in 2026. E-building is behind that one...

Ferrari knows perfectly well that it isn't Porsche, Lamborghini or any other manufacturer. The countless surveys Ferrari conducted with current car owners are the main reason why it postponed the launch of the Elettrica. Owners said categorically that they will never, ever, buy an Elettrica for the simple reason that they believe a Ferrari without a combustion engine should never bear to use the Ferrari name. Electtrica is a completely different product, aimed at a wealthy clientele who in many cases abhor combustion engines and appreciate autonomous driving therefore should be commercialized with a different name. The consequences for the brand of not doing so will be seen in a few years time.

 

Just another soulless model that cements my belief that Ferrari cares more about attracting the tech-obsessed and designer hand bag crowd than the petrol-blooded gearhead.

Nobody's whining, we're just witnessing and commenting about Ferrari's slow but steady downfall.

Even Abarth prior developing the 500e made a lot of market research with clients and enthusiasts and despite all the (negative) feedbacks they decided to go 100% electric anyway and.. the rest is history.

You say this car is not primarily intended for Ferraristi? This car is intended for nobody, I don't really understand who's gonna buy this of their own free will!

Even Lamborghini is delaying their 100% electric car even though with Audi's tech they could do that quickly right now.

Depreciation on this car will be quicker than the 0-100 and most of them will be sold just with the blackmail if you want any other particular model.

There's room for electric cars in this world but definitely not for companies like Ferrari. Ferrari has become way too arrogant these days and we already see the results in Formula1, worst is yet to come also for their road going models if they keep this road.

Oh and btw, originally they planned 40% of the annual production for 100% electric cars by the end of the decade.. wonder when they will update that figure with a smaller number?

Let's look at the bright side.. our pre Manzoni era models will be more appreciated in the future!
