Sounds like Ferrari's first electric car will arrive in October...
... but what do you think it’ll actually *sound* like?
www.topgear.comHere’s the latest on Ferrari’s electric car developments based on recent reporting:
- Ferrari has been firmly signaling that its first fully electric model is on track for unveiling in 2025 (with production and deliveries following in 2026) and has framed the move as a gradual electrification rather than an abrupt shift. This aligns with the company’s narrative that it will continue offering petrol, hybrid, and electric variants in parallel as its lineup evolves.[2][3]
- The company has publicly stated that much of the critical electric components are developed and crafted in Maranello, aided by the new e-building facility that enhances in-house battery and powertrain development capabilities. This supports Ferrari’s aim to maintain its performance-centric identity while expanding into EV tech.[10][2]
- Market and media coverage through late 2024 into 2025 highlighted anticipation around a Capital Markets Day and a staged rollout, with formal reveals and technical details gradually shared across events rather than all at once. Several outlets suggested a production-ready chassis and powertrain would be showcased ahead of customer deliveries.[3][4]
- The initial electric Ferrari model has been described in some coverage as a four-seater or hyper-GT approach, with a focus on preserving Ferrari’s performance driving dynamics, distinctive sound design, and brand heritage even as it shifts to battery power.[7][3]
