Ferrari launches its first all-electric model with the name "Elettrica". The car with 1000 hp under the hood can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds.
Ferrari plans to launch its first electric car on the market in 2026. The car with the simple name "Elettrica" is a four-seater coupé with more than 1000 hp and a range of around 530 kilometers.
The model is aimed at customers "who only drive electric cars but want the Ferrari experience", said Ferrari boss Benedetto Vigna at a presentation at the Maranello plant on Thursday. It is "a complement, not a transition phase" to electromobility, he emphasized.
Ferrari already sells around half of its cars with hybrid drive, but lags behind manufacturers such as Porsche, Lamborghini and Lotus when it comes to fully electric drive systems. The "Elettrica" has four electric motors - one per wheel - and an aluminum chassis with a low center of gravity.
Ferrari did not provide any information on the price. However, analysts expect it to be close to the "Purosangue" SUV, which costs around 500,000 euros. According to Ferrari, the "Elettrica" accelerates from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 2.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of 310 km/h.
Amplified engine noise
Unlike many super sports cars, the electric car will have four seats. A typical Ferrari switch unit on the steering wheel allows the driver to choose between a comfortable and a sporty driving style by adjusting the engine power and suspension.
To evoke the sound of the combustion engine, the car will simulate the gearshift and amplify the sound of the electric motor to give the driver feedback on the driving dynamics. "It's like the difference between a sailboat and a motorboat - both are exciting, but in different ways," said Product Director Gianmaria Fulgenzi.
Ferrari developed key technical components such as the batteries itself in order to secure its own expertise and remain competitive. The production model is due to be unveiled in detail at the beginning of 2026.
