Can Ferrari Persuade the Superrich to Buy an EV Sports Car That Won't Rev? -- WSJ

Dow Jones

Oct 09

By Stephen Wilmot

Extravagantly powerful and noisy engines helped make Ferrari the ultimate sports-car brand. Now the company wants to persuade the superrich to buy a model with no engine at all.

The Italian carmaker this week started lifting the hood on its first fully electric vehicle, a yearslong project that has cost the brand hundreds of millions of dollars and promises to set a benchmark for how battery-powered sports cars should look, sound and drive.

At a glitzy launch event at its headquarters in Maranello, Ferrari showed off the technology that will power the EV, including a new electric axle, motor and battery pack set to be made in-house at its new factory.

It said the vehicle, called the Ferrari Elettrica, will be able to go from 0 to 62 miles an hour in 2.5 seconds, with a top speed of 193 mph. The range on a single charge will be at least 329 miles. The company won't reveal what the model looks like until next spring, with deliveries slated to start later in 2026.
