Ferrari 348 Reviews

It’s hard to think of a person more connected and invested in the Ferrari brand than Luca di Montezemolo, but even the man who led the company from 1991 to 2014 and was Enzo Ferrari’s personal assistant in the early 1970s can’t abide the Prancing Horse’s new all-electric model.Having viewed the Ferrari Luce’s unveiling at this week’s Confindustria public assembly in Rome, Montezemolo told Italian outlet askanews, “If I were to say what I think, I would be hurting Ferrari. “It risks destroying a legend, and I'm deeply sorry. “I hope they at least remove the prancing horse from that car."It is definitely a car that at least the Chinese won't copy," he said.One of Italy’s most high-profile business and sporting personalities, Montezemolo went from the world of Ferrari, including close management of its Formula 1 efforts, to become Chairman of Alitalia and now sits on the board of McLaren Group.And Montezemolo is not alone in fearing Ferrari’s iconic status may be eroded thanks to the Luce.Speaking on X, Italy’s Deputy Prime Minister (and Transport Minister) Matteo Salvini commented on Montezemolo’s views.“Electric, incredibly expensive (€550,000!), and aesthetically speaking, it speaks for itself... “It looks anything but a Prancing Horse car. “And this is supposed to be "innovation"? “I wonder what Enzo Ferrari would say…," he said.Former iPhone designer Jony Ive, who was commissioned by Ferrari to develop the Luce through his LoveFrom consultancy, has seemingly raised the hackles of Ferrari Tifosi around the globe.CarsGuide’s own coverage of the newcomer’s arrival has drawn fierce commentary on social media with feedback like, “Obviously, the designers are not car enthusiasts. Fire the CEO! Better yet, fire them all.  As well as, “One million??? For that Roomba???? Enzo is spinning in his grave!”  And perhaps most cuttingly, “The Ferrari design that became a global laughingstock.” It’s also worth noting Ferrari’s share price plummeted more than six per cent from €309.20 on the morning of the Luce’s launch to €290.00 by the evening’s close and currently sits at €283.75.

Silent and heavy. Two words that usually stalk any big-battery EV. And the two words Ferrari has spent five years, and untold millions, trying to banish from its new and potentially brand-defining electric vehicle, the Luce.The Luce is arguably the biggest gamble Ferrari has taken in decades. It’s no secret that savage, sonorous exhaust notes and fuel-exploding engines are staples of the supercar world. Which is likely why so many supercar makers — including Lamborghini, Aston Martin and McLaren — have either cancelled, delayed or walked back their EV plans.Ferrari, though, has continued at full throttle. The five-year project has at last reached its zenith, with the covers coming off the Luce in Rome ahead of its Australian arrival next year.The project has been shrouded in near-complete secrecy, but the veil has finally been lifted, with the Luce now detailed in full.We now know the Luce isn’t just staggeringly powerful, but will also be among the world’s most expensive EVs, with a price tag expected to sit above one million dollars in Australia.There is a litany of firsts here, too. The Luce is Ferrari’s first EV, the first model the brand has produced with seating for five, and the first vehicle since 2010 to have had its design entirely outsourced.Instead of being penned by Ferrari’s in-house design studio, the Luce was designed — inside and out — by LoveFrom, the US-based design collective founded by former Apple chief designer Jony Ive and Australian Marc Newson.As a result, it bears almost no resemblance to Ferrari’s supercar family. Instead, it adopts a mostly familiar four-door EV silhouette, complete with a sizeable glasshouse designed to look as though it sits beneath the Luce’s outer shell, as if the bodywork has been lowered from above.There are still several truly Ferrari elements, though, like the razor-sharp nose and the deep aero channel that funnels air over the bonnet and beneath the boot spoiler. Then there are the massive staggered alloys – 23 inches at the front and 24 inches at the rear – and spellbinding in the new Turbine wheel design, machined from a solid piece of aluminium.“The concept that we came up with very, very early on — which became kind of the overarching philosophy of part of the exterior design — was this idea that you had an interior glasshouse, which is basically this large, black glasshouse area,” says Marc Newson.“That’s essentially surrounded by the body of the car, which at the end of the day is probably doing most of the aero work.“The reason we identified that as a really interesting direction, or an interesting sort of philosophy to pursue, was that it gave us the opportunity to create some very clean and very unique forms.”But there is no escaping the fact this is unlike anything else in the Ferrari portfolio. And that, Newson says, is no accident.“This is a different kind of Ferrari. And that was the point. That was the entire purpose of the exercise,” he says.The other thing that still feels very Ferrari is the power and performance on offer. Ferrari hasn’t quite reinvented the wheel here, but it has made each of them a hell of a lot more powerful, fitting every corner of the Luce with its own electric motor.Yes, that’s four motors in total, producing a combined 772kW and 990Nm. And that has exactly the effect on performance you might expect, with the Luce clipping 100km/h in 2.5 seconds and 200km/h in 6.8 seconds.In fact, there is a lot going on at each of the Luce’s corners, with every wheel able to deliver power, capture regenerative energy, provide steering inputs or dictate vertical movement to improve contact-patch grip.“The car has an agility that you don’t expect, that you cannot link with your perception of the dimensions of the car,” says Raffaele de Simone, Ferrari’s head of test development and test driving.“The feeling of the Luce is based on the fact that at these four corners, the four motors are managed by a control unit that decides how to satisfy in a very harmonic way. You don’t perceive which system is working on the four corners, you just have to turn the wheel, to place the car where you want on the road, and the car goes there.”The power can flow naturally in automatic mode, or the driver can take more control through the gearshift-style paddles behind the steering wheel. Ferrari’s take on a simulated gearbox doesn’t actually deliver a shift-like step in power, but instead controls torque flow and regenerative braking, effectively delivering more power or more stopping force with each pull of a paddle.“On the left side, you increase the engine braking, exactly like a combustion-engine car. On the other side, you unleash power,” de Simone says.“The more you go on the left, the more you have engine braking. The more you go upshift, the more you release power. These power stages are called Torque Index.“Supposing that you are approaching a tight corner, on the exit you will have the chance to exploit only part of the power of the car, because it’s a way to better control the huge amount of torque. And this helps the driver to be connected with the throttle, with the limitation in power to find the right sensitivity on throttle.“It’s something that, with electric powertrains, was not possible. You were driven by computers, managing in your place the stability of the vehicle. Now you are back to driving, you are back to control, and this is a tool to control it.”Ferrari has also controlled almost every part of the EV build process, including assembling the battery. In this case, it is a 122kWh NCM unit that the brand says delivers a driving range of more than 500km, though there is a catch.Given the power on offer here, gentleness is required to maximise range. Ferrari makes that part easy by limiting output in its different drive modes to preserve the battery. In Range mode, power is capped at 320kW, with the grunt fed through the two rear motors. In Tour, all four motors contribute a total of 460kW. Finally, Performance delivers 725 kW and, presumably, drains the battery very, very quickly.Ferrari says the battery is designed not only to be repaired, but also fully replaced. If, as expected, battery chemistry improves significantly in the next 10 years, the Luce’s 122kWh unit could be swapped out for better tech.Perhaps the biggest change, though, is in the cabin, which feels less like a traditional Ferrari interior and more device-like and tech-focused. It is a beautifully appointed, modern-feeling space, and one in which screens are supplemented by tactile controls.A thin, elegant steering wheel frames a new, ferociously high-tech and layered driver display, in which the top screen has circular cut-outs, creating a gauge-like impression for the screen behind. Physical needles are then attached, rising and falling with your inputs.The central screen is a thing of beauty, too. It is hinged so it can be angled towards the passenger if required, while the switches and toggles beneath are exclusively aluminium or glass. In the top right corner, another needle-adorned digital gauge can cycle through a clock, stopwatch or compass.Also fun is the launch-control function, accessed via a fighter-pilot ejector-seat-style handle mounted next to the driver’s head.“It’s a fusion between digital and analogue, and the physical world,” Ferrari says.But back to the idea of weight and sound — or the lack of it. Ferrari knows the importance of a soundtrack, and it has developed an in-house solution it likens to an electric guitar, and that it says makes a driver feel like Jimi Hendrix.There are no fake Jetsons sounds here. Instead, a sensor and accelerometer capture the sounds and vibrations of the e-motor, match them to your driving inputs, and then amplify them inside and outside the cabin.The system took five years of work and 40,000km of dedicated track testing to develop, with the result, Ferrari says, being an almost rock-star sensation for owners.“Now one might wonder, ‘Okay, but you are amplifying, so it’s fake, right? It’s fake, you’re amplifying,’” says Antonino Palermo, vehicle NVH and sound engineer at Ferrari.“If we think to the musical parallel, an electric guitar musician — Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, David Gilmour — when they are playing, they have expressivity. When they play the guitar you can feel the human aspect, the intention.“Here the musician is you. It’s your driving.”The second key element is the positioning of the battery, and the design of the vehicle itself, with a laser focus on lowering the Luce’s centre of gravity. Ferrari says it is 95mm lower than in the Purosangue, helping the Luce feel at least 400kg lighter when cornering than its actual 2260kg kerb weight. The claimed driver experience, then, is akin to a car that weighs closer to 1700kg.“You look at the car on the outside, you go into it with a forecast of what a big car could be like to drive. You have your background experience that says where the SUVs are and where the sedans are, and then where the rear mid-engine Ferrari is,” de Simone says.“Where to place in this scenario the experience of the Luce? The car has an agility that you don’t expect, that you cannot link with your view of the dimensions of the car.“For this type of car, in terms of size, roominess and versatility, there is no connection with the handling of the car. This ratio has been completely rewritten.”

Less is more with the freshly revealed Ferrari Amalfi Spider, claims the Italian supercar-maker.That's because, by removing the Amalfi coupe's roof, you remove the barrier to one of motoring's most intoxicating experiences – the sound of a V8 roadster in full song – or at least that's what its designer told CarsGuide at the recent Ferrari roadster's official launch.Created to beat the likes of the Aston Martin Roadster, Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet and even bigger drop-tops like the Bentley Continental GTC, the true beauty of the new Amalfi Spider is with its roof up it looks identical to the drop-dead gorgeous coupe.Not an easy task, say designers, but one accomplished to such an extent in a wind tunnel the Amalfi roadster replicates the same air-bending prowess as its hardtop sibling.The Ferrari drop-top also possesses the same advanced aero that includes neat front headlamp air intakes, underbody vortex generators, large functional side skirts and larger-still rear diffuser and, its pièce de résistance, a three-stage rear spoiler.Roof up, and the Amalfi's five-layer 220mm-thick hood also offers the same sound and heat insulation as the retractable hardtop favoured by the former Portofino, bringing enhanced levels of refinement on a cruise.Lowering the ragtop at speeds of up to 60km/h is a process that takes just 13.5 seconds.Aside from shrinking luggage space from 255 litres to 172 litres – the good news continues with the promise of class-best roof down comfort.Recruiting an aerodynamicist from Ferrari's F1 team, the Amalfi rear seats' backrest raises by 90 degrees at speeds of up to 170km/h reducing buffeting and boominess other convertibles suffer with at high speed.Ferrari only refers to its latest Amalfi as a '2+', as the rear seats don't quite justify '2+2' status, with limited legroom suited only for very small kids.Not that you'd buy the entry Ferrari for doing the school run, instead you'd pick the fast supercar because of its performance and the way it rewards behind the wheel.The good news is despite the addition of an electric motor for the roof and all the extra bracing needed the kerbweight has only increased by 86kg to a still lithe 1556kg without fluids.Mounted mid-ship under the bonnet is the coupe's sublime twin-turbocharged 3.9-litre V8 that produces an identical 471kW of power and a thumping 760Nm of torque.Off the line, with only the modest increase in mass, Ferrari claims the roofless version of the coupe matches the 3.3 seconds the standard coupe takes to launch from 0-100km/h.Top speed remains a very blustery 320km/h.Coping with a slight change in weight distribution from 50:50 to 48:52, engineers have given the Amalfi Spider new springs and dampers that help it dynamically match the fine ride/handling balance as the coupe.Ensuring it should be fun behind the wheel the Ferrari scores the same ABS Evo brake-by-wire braking, advanced 6D sensors and latest 6.1 version of its Side Slip Control (SSC) that have all been honed by the carmaker's F80 hypercar and should ensure it will be fast, engaging and prove wildly entertaining behind the wheel.Speaking of which, like the coupe unveiled back in 2025 the new Amalfi Spider comes with a new steering wheel design that brings back physical buttons and features an anodised aluminium start button.Within there's also a large 15.6-inch digital instrument cluster, 10.25-inch multimedia screen and further 8.8-inch display that can broadcast the g-force, revs and high speeds to your terrified passenger, with all three working with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone mirroring.Offered with three different comfort seats tailored to your size, the new pews come with 10 different air chambers and provide for a massage function.There's even the option of a powerful 14-speaker 1200-watt Burmester sound system should you ever tire of the twin-turbo V8 soundtrack.Set to land in Australia in around quarter three (July-Sept) of 2027, the Ferrari Amalfi Spider is likely to command a price premium of around $70,000 over the already-hefty $503,261 (before on-road costs) charged for the coupe version.That means it will command a significant premium over the two-seat Aston Martin Vantage Roadster ($435,000) and the Bentley Continental GT Speed Convertible ($452,670) but could be priced on par with the Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet that is yet to be costed for our market.

V8 engines in Australia have been on the decline with increasingly stringent emissions requirements and changes in production and demand.It has seen the recent departure of V8 favourites such as the 4.5-litre twin-turbo diesel found in the Toyota LandCruiser.The options are continuing to fade with the next-generation Nissan Patrol ditching its 5.6-litre diesel V8, in favour of a twin-turbo six-cylinder set-up.For those wondering though, here are all the new cars still on sale in 2026 with a V8 engine.  Aston Martin  Aston Martin uses the Mercedes-AMG tuned 4.0-litre twin-turbo petrol V8 across most of its range. This includes the Vantage coupe and convertible models, producing 489kW and 800Nm. The engine is also found in the DB12, which is a V8-exclusive model. Previous DB generations have had the 5.9-litre V12, such as the DB9 and DB11.The DB12’s V8 produces slightly more power than the Vantage at 500kW, and has the same 800Nm.Aston Martin’s DBX SUV is the other model to house a V8 engine, which produces 405kW and 700Nm. The juiced up DBX 707 has 520kW and 700Nm. Audi Audi has a petrol V8 in four models, across both its sedan and SUV range. The top-spec limited edition RS6 Avant GT is the most expensive Audi model on sale in Australia, starting from nearly $400,000 (before on-road costs), although even the regular RS6 is a smidge over $250,000.Its 4.0-litre V8 engine produces 463kW and 850Nm, which is the same as in the related RS7.The standard versions of the SQ7 and SQ8 SUVs have lesser power outputs at 441kW/800Nm, while the range-topping RSQ8 Performance produces 471kW/850Nm.  FordFord has three V8 models on sale for its Mustang GT sports car, which all employ 5.0-litre unit, producing up to 347kW and 550Nm.  Bentley  The Flying Spur and Continental GT luxury grand tourers both have V8 power, with the Continental GT, a V8-exclusive. Bentley’s VW-group sourced 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 has been given some hybrid assistance in the top-end version of the Continental GT, boosting performance to 575kW and 1000Nm.The ultra high-end Bentayga SUV meanwhile shares its powerplant with the aforementioned Audi models, a 4.0-litre twin-turbo without plug-in assistance producing 478kW/850Nm.BMWBMW has one V8 petrol engine which features in five models on sale in Australia. The M5 adds a plug-in hybrid set-up to its V8, producing 535kW and 1000Nm. The M8 uses the same 4.4-litre engine, but it does not have an electrification, so it 'only' produces 460kW and 750Nm. This V8 is also found in several performance-oriented SUVs from BMW’s line-up, such as the X5, X6 and X7, as well as the full-size XM, which also employs a plug-in hybrid set-up. It was recently reported BMW has plans to continue its production of V8 engines in the carmaker’s Hams Hall facility in the United Kingdom, with North American demand continuing to be strong despite emissions laws closing in around the world. Mercedes-Benz The 4.0-litre V8 engine continues to be available on several Mercedes-Benz models, such as its luxury limousine S-Class and Maybach. It gets a plug-in hybrid twist on the ballistic GT63 SE, taking figures to a staggering 620kW and 1400Nm. The petrol-only GT63 has the same 4.0-litre engine, producing up to 450kW and 800Nm.Mercedes’ latest generation C63 sedan only features a twin-turbo hybrid 2.0-litre four-cylinder set-up, which has proved an unpopular swap compared to the previous V8. Like BMW, Mercedes also employs its V8 across high-end variants in its SUV range. Land Rover Land Rover installs two V8 engines, which feature as part of its Defender and Range Rover line-ups. The biggest V8 on offer is a 5.0-litre example, producing up to 368kW and 610Nm in the top-spec Defender model. There is also a 4.4-litre hybrid unit found on many of the P-Series and Sport Range Rover variants, with a maximum of 467kW and 750Nm. Lamborghini Lamborghini has one V8 engine, which is available on its Temerario coupe and its Urus SUV. It is a 4.0-litre example, producing up to 588kW and 950Nm. Ferrari  Ferrari offers a 3.9-litre twin-turbo V8 engine on its Roma and Roma Spider two-door sports cars. Both cars have 456kW and 760Nm.The SF90 Stradale has a bigger 4.0-litre unit, which gets the assistance of a plug-in hybrid system to produce 574kW and 800Nm.Nissan The Nissan Patrol 4WD currently on sale in Australia comes with a 5.6-litre V8 (298kW/560Nm), but that is about to change with the next-generation model.The incoming Patrol will launch in late 2026 with a 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 replacing the V8. 

Australia’s free trade agreement with the European Union (EU) appears to be only a matter of time, according to reports and it could have some serious implications for the domestic car industry. The Luxury Car Tax (LCT), which has been in place for more than 25 years, has been one of many key points of discussion in negotiations with the EU. A new car imported from another country that exceeds a fuel efficiency of 3.5L/100km is subject to a 33 per cent tax on every dollar more than $80,567 in price. For vehicles with fuel efficiency 3.5L/100km or less, the tax does not kick in until $91,387. While European luxury vehicles are impacted by many other factors that contribute to their higher prices, such as import costs to Australia and other fees and taxes, the LCT is a significant component of its price. European luxury cars in Australia are priced at a significantly higher point compared to other markets. Removal of the LCT could increase the affordability of cars from major manufacturers such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz, as well as many models under the Volkswagen banner.The LCT was originally designed to protect Australia’s domestic car manufacturing industry from imported alternatives, but Australia stopped producing cars in 2017.It is worth more than $1 billion to the Federal Government each year, with European manufacturers a large contributor, meaning its abolition for Europe brands would need to be enticing.Australian Trade Minister Don Farrell and the EU commissioner's joint statement said talks were “constructive and positive”, allowing “the two sides to converge positions on a range of issues.”"Good progress was achieved in narrowing gaps on a small number of outstanding matters," the statement read. Whether the future of the LCT was one of those issues is unknown but the continued rumours regarding the potential for its abolition indicate the agreement is working towards that end. 

Ferrari has confirmed the name and some interior design elements of its upcoming electric car, which is due to launch later this year.The 2026 Ferrari Luce, the brand’s first EV and proclaimed “the start of a new chapter” for Ferrari, was designed with help from San Francisco firm LoveFrom, founded by influential Apple designer Jony Ive and prolific Australian industrial designer Marc Newson.The design has, perhaps unsurprisingly, drawn a slew of negative online commentary for its departure from Ferrari’s previous interior design language.Jony Ive’s influence is clear, with flat glass screens, rounded edges and sleek buttons dominating much of what has been revealed, with a ‘retro’ flavour to much of the physical part of the interior.Ferrari says the philosophy behind the design is to organise the elements around control inputs and display outputs, with influence from “classic sports cars and Formula One single-seaters” simplified down to “essential functions”.The steering wheel is perhaps the clearest example of the ‘heritage-inspired’ design, with the tiller a modern interpretation of the classic three-spoke Nardi wheel of mid-20th century.A glass key fob that needs to be inserted into a dock to start the car has also been revealed, as well as a central control panel able to swivel towards either driver or passenger.The main panels shown also include a tablet-style digital driver display, central console with glass shifter, and a ceiling-mounted panel where the start-switch is found.The design influence from the head designers at LoveFrom is clear. Jony Ive was instrumental in the development of the iPhone’s now-iconic style as with many other early Apple designs, and Marc Newson has designed countless products including weapons, cameras, aircraft fittings for Qantas and even his own homes.So far, the key confirmed information on the technical side of the Luce includes its dual-motor setup with an output of more than 736kW, and a 0-100km/h time of less than 2.5sec.An in-house 122kWh battery pack will reportedly allow a range of more than 530km.

Have you ever wondered what the most expensive car in Australia is?Would it break the $1m mark?As we get towards the end of the year, here is a look at the five most expensive cars on sale in Australia with no added options.Price: $846,888, before on-road costsStarting off the list is one of two offerings from Ferrari. The SF90 Stradale features 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 and three electric motors, which have a total output of 746kW and 800Nm.It has the trademark Ferrari speed, shifting from 0-100km/h in 2.5 seconds and boasts a top speed of 340km/h.Its interior has a standout 16-inch curved digital screen, which is designed to give the driver a Formula 1 feel.Price $886,800, before on-road costsFerrari also claims second spot with a convertible on this list.This convertible is more than $80,000 more expensive than the hard top 12Cilinidri. The 12Cilinidri has a 6.5-litre V12 petrol engine producing 610kW and 678Nm, with a 0-100km/h time of 2.9 seconds. On the interior, the car has three different digital screen, which are a 15.6-inch digital driver display, 10.25-inch touch screen and a passenger display.Price: $895,000, before on-road costsThe Cullinan is the only SUV on this list, and the last car before the $900,000 barrier is breached. Amazingly, the Black Badge edition is a $118,000 upgrade on the standard Cullinan. It has a 6.7-litre V12 engine, which produces 441kW and 900Nm. The car also features the optional iconic 'shooting star' headliner, with a multitude of other customisable specifications. Price $933,000, before on-road costsThe Black Badge Spectre is Rolls Royce’s most expensive and first-ever all-electric offering on the market.The luxury coupe is one of the few cars on this list not famous for its speed, but it still manages to offer plenty of power. Its dual electric motors produce 485kW and 1075Nm, shifting from 0-100km/h in 3.5 seconds.It has a range of more than 500km, according to the WLTP testing cycle from its 102kWh battery.As with all cars featuring the Spirit of Ecstasy, it comes with the outrageous luxury add ons one would expect for a car approaching the $1m mark.Price: $987,000, before on-road costsThe most expensive car on sale in Australia is the only Lamborghini to make this list. As Lamborghini's flagship supercar, it has one of the most advanced hybrid systems.Its 6.5-litre V12 engine and three electric motors pump out 747kW and 807Nm, with a 0-100km/h time of 2.5 seconds.It has a 3.8 kWh lithium-ion battery, which if you really wanted to, can make the car run on electric-only power for 10km. The Revuelto is a near $400,000 jump from the next most expensive Lamborghini in the Huracan STO. 

At its latest Capital Markets Day, Ferrari revealed the production-ready chassis of its first electric vehicle (EV) along with many key details.Dubbed the Ferrari Elettrica for now, which is Italian for electric, this EV is set to be revealed in March-June 2026. Customer deliveries will commence in late 2026.Power will come from dual electric motors with a total system output of more than 736kW. Ferrari claims it will be able to do the 0-100km/h sprint in 2.5 seconds and have a top speed of 310km/h.These electric motors are fed by a massive in-house-developed 122kWh battery pack, which allows for a claimed range of more than 530km, according to an undisclosed testing protocol.This battery pack operates on an 880V electric architecture which allows for a peak DC charging rate of 350kW.It’s also integrated into the floorplan, allowing for the centre of gravity to be lowered 80mm over an equivalent internal-combustion model.We’re still yet to see what this Ferrari EV will actually look like yet with its bodywork.Overall vehicle weight is claimed to be around 2300kg with a weight distribution of 47 per cent front and 53 per cent rear.Not all the exterior dimensions have been confirmed yet but it has a 2960mm wheelbase with an “extremely short” wheelbase. It’s claimed this is inspired by mid-/rear-engine berlinetta models.There’s a separate rear subframe, which is a first for Ferrari. It’s claimed to reduce noise and vibration in the cabin, while maintaining stiffness and driving dynamics.This EV is set to have a 48V active suspension set-up which it shares with the Purosangue and F80. It automatically controls the car’s pitch and roll when accelerating, braking and cornering.There will be three different tyre choices which all have low rolling resistance but no sacrifice to handling. One for dry use, one for winter driving and one with run-flat technology.This Ferrari EV will be able to make a noise inside the cabin but it won’t replicate the brand’s internal combustion engine sounds. In fact, it won’t be digitally generated at all.Instead, the noise will come from a high-precision sensor on the rear axle which picks up vibrations through the metal and then amplifies and projects it into the surroundings. It’s claimed to work in a similar way to an electric guitar.Ferrari is also including a noise cancellation system which is claimed to selectively cancel out “undesirable current harmonics” like high-pitched whines from the electric motor.At this stage it’s unclear what this Ferrari EV will look like with its complete bodywork for now, but previous spied prototypes have indicated it could look similar to the Purosangue as a somewhat lifted 2+2 grand tourer.Ferrari has confirmed it will unveil the interior in early 2026 and ahead of its full reveal in March-April.

Ferrari has unveiled a new twin-turbo hybrid supercar that resurrects one of the most iconic nameplates in the Italian maker’s storied back catalogue.

Ferrari's drop-top stunner, the Roma Spider, promises to be the easiest daily driving model from the Prancing Horse. But does its manners in traffic mean its wild side is a little less wild? We put it to the test to find out.
