Overview
The Luce was first announced at the brand's Capital Markets Day on October 9, 2025. It is the brand's first electric vehicle. Some websites describe the Luce as a cross between a shooting brake, a wagon, and a sedan.[1] It is expected to launch sometime in 2026.[2] Ferrari created a bespoke 880 V platform specifically for the Luce. While detailed exterior specifications have not been fully disclosed, Ferrari has stated that the wheelbase is 116.5 inches, which makes the Luce's wheelbase slightly shorter than the Purosangue's wheelbase. It has a 47:53 weight distribution.[3]
The Luce will be assembled at a dedicated plant called the E-Building.[1][4]
Initially referred to as the Elettrica, the official name was confirmed to be Luce on February 9, 2026.[5]
Design
Most of the design cues from the Purosangue are expected to be carried over.[6]
The Centro Stile Ferrari, directed by Flavio Manzoni, collaborated with LoveFrom, a creative collective founded by designers Sir Jony Ive and Marc Newson, for the design of the Luce.[7][8][9][10]
Features
The Luce uses 48 V active suspension with reaction time to the point that anti-roll bars are not necessary.[1] Four-wheel steering is present, alongside torque vectoring on both axles.[11]
The Luce's interior combines a central touchscreen with mechanical controls positioned below it. Notably, designer Jony Ive - architect of the iPad's touch-first interface - here departs from that paradigm, reintroducing tactile interaction through physical controls. The cabin emphasizes material purity: the gear selector is constructed of glass, while surfaces incorporate polished steel, matte steel, and strengthened glass.[7][12]
Powertrain
The Luce's powertrain was developed entirely in-house. The motors are arranged in a setup called the Halbach array, a setup used in Ferrari’s F1 powertrains that directs the magnetic flux toward the stator to maximize torque density. During cruising, the front motors disconnect to maximize range. The motors at the rear develop 416 horsepower each, while the front motors make 141 horsepower each. At the motor, the front and rear axles have a maximum torque output of 178 pound-feet (241 N⋅m) and 486 pound-feet (659 N⋅m) respectively.[13] Both front and rear axles have a maximum torque output of 2,581 pound-feet (3,499 N⋅m) and 5,900 pound-feet (7,999 N⋅m) respectively at the wheels.[3]
The battery pack used in the Luce is also developed in-house, however the battery cells are NMC batteries developed by SK On. The battery capacity is 122 kWh and gives the Luce a >323 mile range.[3]
