Ferrari's first electric vehicle, the Luce, has reportedly achieved its 2026 sales target of "just under 500" units within two months of its public reveal. This milestone was reported by the Financial Times ahead of Ferrari's quarterly earnings announcement.
The Luce, priced at €550,000, was largely designed by Jony Ive and his firm, LoveFrom. The rapid sales indicate a stronger market acceptance than some initial reactions suggested.
Demand for the Luce was particularly strong in China, where EV sales have already gained traction with brands like Geely, Lynk & Co, and Zeekr. Ferrari reportedly aimed to attract a new generation of wealthy buyers, especially in China and technology centers such as Silicon Valley.
Sources indicate that US tech entrepreneurs have provided positive feedback on the vehicle.
Upon its reveal in May, the Luce faced criticism online, with some comparing its wedge shape to a Nissan Leaf and questioning its competitiveness against Chinese EVs. Ferrari's stock dropped 8% the day after the reveal. However, the early sales figures suggest that market demand has surpassed these initial negative reactions.
Looking ahead, Ferrari reportedly aims to sell approximately 2,500 Luce units by 2030, which would account for about 5% of the company's annual sales. This translates to roughly 600 units per year after the initial target is met. The first production model of the Luce is also slated for auction.
