Typical plan which still people can't see. Make it so ugly only EV losers will buy it so Ferrari doesn't need to build it so big numbers, just to cut off the the fleet c02 average. *Mission completed, it's the most talked EV in the world so it will find enough buyers to meet the target number of Ferrari.

and yes, sure Ferrari will buy a proper EV hypercar also later, but this model is only for losers yet and to oversee market reaction for this apple 5 seater. They're trying to open new car segment also.

Apparently it's not aimed at existing Ferrari customers....well why the heck would they put thr Ferrari badge on it then? Lol

Surely they could have launched a separate EV brand, maybe even Dino, to distinguish it from the main Ferrari brand.

This car is designed to with intention to preserved the value of ICE Ferrari sportscar. This is never about making a Ferrari car that we are familiar with to become fully electric. (something the Chinese car makers are trying to copy)

This car will be popular among the superrich to show others they can afford to buy this odd looking Ferrari over some sporty and slick looking supercar. This is a car for billionaire, not millionaire

They would have been in a better place if they had made a Toyota Vellfire with a Ford Supervan bodywork

the AMG now looks like a supermodel to me.
(and just watch the AMG doing burnouts on YouTube videos and the imagine how Luce would look like doing this 8).
hardly find a billionaire who look like supermodel. And that is the point.

They should have launched Dino as subbrand long ago, the rumors were longe there it would be reborn (I guess it is 20 years ago now), it would be perfect. Also they could use it for the modern retro stuff (Testarossa-design). For my liking the new Ferraris look great in most part but very too much retro-futuristic (like 1970s studies perfected with todays manufaction opportunities).
They should have launched that EV as testorossa-style-SUV (in my world as Dino) and this would have already been blasphemous, but still 1000x better than this brand-essence-killer of car.

Loving watching a bunch of keyboard warriors getting their knickers in a twist over the Luce.

If it bothers you so much, don't buy one. Buy a 296 or 12Cilindri instead. :lol:

As for the Luce looking like a toaster or a Nissan, the 849 Testarossa and F80 are hardly good looking cars either.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

Made me laugh indeed! Especially the Luce is for EV losers comment. Well sign me up as a loser if I can afford a car like that! [-o<

It will be interesting if the Chinese rich folks will actually buy the Ferrari Luce or not in meaningful numbers.

It's fun to see that, and amusing to see how Nissan Japan must have stomped on Nissan Ireland and got it taken down, at a guess. Well at least we have a generic name for Ferrari EVs... The Ferrari Leaf.
