Would be really awesome if you could fit 3 child seats in the back.

#222Earlier quoted context omitted.
It’s a five seat nearly SUV despite Ferrari claiming it isn’t. It makes fake noises in sports mode like the other EVs, it seems to have only two features that come from Ferrari and that’s the quad rear lights and the yellow badge. I’m not the target market for this and never will be but nobody is going to make a poster of that for a teenagers bedroom. Yuck.
> nobody is going to make a poster of that for a teenagers bedroom Do people still do this tho?
Seems like it. I regularly see photos of people's gaming setups/battlestations and hobby rooms, and it's not rare to see posters of cars.
Though it's more common to see smaller framed art, and model cars.

The look is nothing less than I would expect from "make it thinner and round the corners" pioneer Jony Ive. I don't know why people insist on EVs being kind of ugly and boxy, but Ferrari had a chance to do better and didn't.
I think energy efficiency matters more with EVs, because it determines how frequently you have to charge on road trips, and more aerodynamic designs look a bit uglier.
It's a $650,000 car. These are not anyone's top priorities with it.
Re: Ferrari Luce
#224Lots of comments saying it looks ugly. I don't agree. But the $650,000 price tag is not pretty - that I can agree on. I know people will pay that.
After seeing the pictures, I assumed they were moving into the mass-market budget EV sedan market at a price 1/10th of that.
$650k is a fine price for a Ferrari, but not one that looks as plain as that.

#225It looks like a VW bug wearing Milhouse's dad's racecar bed as a skin suit.

#226Personally, I think a My Little Pony silhouette would look great instead of the Ferrari logo. It has a completely different vibe compared to the wild horse image
Re: Ferrari Luce
#227Horrible. I don't care if it was designed by Armani in his deathbed or Jony Ive himself. It's just horrible. The flat sides, not even reminiscence of the testarossa glorious days. Worse than the tesla truck and that's in the lowest levels of design. Be careful not to take the Jaguar road for there is no coming back.
Oh, this is actually designed by Ive? It all makes sense now. He is a joke of a designer. I had thought people had stopped giving him work.
This car has absolutely ZERO life to it for any manufacturer, much less a Ferrari.

#228Whoa. This is hideous.
Re: Ferrari Luce
#229Someone inside Ferrari had the terrible idea of greenlighting this and even more terrible lack of courage to not cancel this mistake because it was the baby turd of Jony Ive and Marc Newson. Fortunately everyone will laugh and cringe, the usual car "journalists" will bite their tongues because they don't want to lose access, time will pass and it will be forgotten because Ferrari can afford to make these mistakes ( f…
"(for now)" is important, Jaguar used to have luxury-performance status by the neck - and they used their affordance of failed product luxury too excessively. Now, they're in a hole they cannot escape.
Re: Ferrari Luce
#230The iPhone 5C of Ferraris – and I am sure it'll have the same fate. It's doubly a shame because Jony actually owns one of the all-time most beautiful classic Ferraris – the 250 Europa. I was hoping they'd do a modern re-imagination and revival. https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/auto/250-europa
I was trying to pinpoint what it reminded me of, and this is it 100%. It looks exactly like an iPhone 5C taken the form of a car.
