Ferrari is about to revolutionize the world of electric cars
An innovation expected for 2025
In a few months, Ferrari will unveil its first fully electric car. While details are still scarce, we have learned crucial information about the battery technology used. Just as the Ferrari SUV made an impression, the first electric Ferrari promises to surprise. The first deliveries are scheduled for 2026. The primary goal in developing this model is “fun,” as emphasized by Benedetto Vigna, CEO of Ferrari: “We are building this car to ensure that owners can have fun behind the wheel.”
A new beginning for Ferrari
Currently, Ferrari has not disclosed specific details about the design of this electric car. However, spy photos have revealed a prototype hidden under a Maserati Levante. Production will begin in the E-building of the Ferrari factory in Maranello, operational from January 2025. This factory will first produce the Purosangue and SF90 models before introducing new lines for future electric models.
Benedetto Vigna and battery strategy
Benedetto Vigna confirmed that Ferrari would not use lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries for its electric model. The brand will source from multiple suppliers to ensure product diversity and avoid any stock shortages. LFP batteries, often used for their reduced cost, do not meet Ferrari’s performance requirements.
Performance and competitiveness
For its sports model, Ferrari will likely opt for an NMC battery, known for its energy density and high-temperature discharge capability. This technology is commonly used in high-performance vehicles like the Tesla Model S Plaid.
According to rumors, the price of this first electric Ferrari could start around 500,000 euros, similar to that of the SF90 Stradale. A second electric model is also in development. Benedetto Vigna specified that the final price will be set one month before the launch. If these pieces of information are confirmed, the electric Ferrari could be much more affordable than electric supercars like the Lotus Evija or the Pininfarina Battista, whose prices reach several million euros.
