The Ferrari Luce has been a topic of controversy since its debut. Not only is it electric, which many people dislike, but the design is unlike anything you'd expect from the same company that built the Ferrari F40 and 458 Italia. Online hate for the car is everywhere, and it’s not even out yet. But sales will determine if it is a success, and it might already be one in China.
The Luce will launch in China this weekend, but one news outlet is reporting that all 88 EVs allocated to China have already been sold. That may be true, but Ferrari Beijing is still accepting new orders for the car. Ferrari might be open to increasing that number if there are enough buyers.
The Luce is Ferrari’s first electric vehicle. It has four electric motors producing 1,050 horsepower. Inside, it has a comfort-focused cabin you would expect from a Mercedes, not an iconic supercar maker. We will know very soon just how popular the Luce truly is when Ferrari reveals how many potential customers have placed deposits for the car.
Motor1’s Take: Everyone will be watching to see how many Luce EVs Ferrari actually sells. The company is confident that this is a car consumers want, and maybe some markets are more eager for the model than others.
