Ferrari ignites the electric era with its first EV test drive!
Ferrari’s mysterious electric car has been caught undergoing road tests. The test vehicle, cobbled together from parts of other models, gives little away about the final design.
The car spotted testing isn’t the final design for Ferrari’s first electric vehicle. It’s a cleverly disguised mule cobbled together using a Maserati Levante SUV body. Fake exhaust pipes were even added in the back! Up front, things get weirder with headlights borrowed from a Ferrari Roma. This mishmash hides the real Ferrari EV underneath. Bigger wheels, a lowered stance, and wider tracks covered in plastic hint at a sportier character compared to the Levante.
Ferrari’s first electric car is expected to arrive next year. Prepare your wallet too – sources estimate a starting price exceeding $500,000 (approximately Rs 4.17 crore) before options. Imagine a two-seater Ferrari with a powerful electric motor propelling each of its four wheels. That’s the rumor!
Forget mass production! Ferrari’s new “e-building” isn’t about churning out more cars. CEO Benedetto Vigna emphasizes maintaining exclusivity, prioritizing the value of each Ferrari sold over sheer volume.
Ferrari is revving up production with a brand-new factory! This flexible facility will be able to build all kinds of Ferraris, including electric vehicles (EVs), hybrids, and even the classic gasoline-powered cars (ICE). Right now, Ferrari cranks out around 14,000 vehicles annually. This is expected to significantly boost their annual production, with estimates reaching 20,000 units.
The “e-building” boasts a flexible production line capable of seamlessly handling the assembly of electric vehicles (EVs), hybrids, and traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) cars.
Even with the “e-building,” Ferrari might still prioritize exclusivity. They could potentially use the increased capacity to offer more model variations or personalization options while keeping overall production numbers relatively stable.

The “e-building” represents a strategic move for Ferrari which allows them to adapt to a changing market while potentially maintaining their core principles of exclusivity and maximizing profit per car. Whether they choose to increase production volume significantly remains to be seen.
