For decades, Ferrari has been know for building world's most phenomenal sports cars, powered by screaming V8 and V12. But the iconic Italian brand is entering a new era of cars. Ferrari has finally pulled the wraps off their first electric car and instead of playing safe, the Italian marque has gone all out. Packing a jaw-dropping 1050 BHP and a blistering 0-100 km/h sprint in just 2.5 seconds. What else this supercar have on offer? Let's find out.
First Electric Car: LUCE
Ferrari needs no introduction in the automotive space; they're known for their flamboyant designs and exhilarating performance. But with the Luce, keeping aside their flamboyancy, the brand comes out with a more conventional design language. Although this Ferrari has been designed by a design firm named LoveFrom.

Talking about the design, the car features sleek, swooping rooflines combined with a minimalist styling approach. Black elements remain a major highlight, including the blacked-out front grille section, lower bumper and the glass roof. On the side, the overall silhouette looks highly aerodynamic and is complemented by massive 23-inch alloy wheels, while buyers will also have the option to choose larger 24-inch wheels. Other highlights include flush-fitting door handles, suicide doors and striking yellow brake callipers. Moving to the rear, the car gets quad circular LED taillamps along with an aggressive blacked-out treatment that further enhances its sporty appeal.
Interiors

Inside the cockpit, the car now follows a far more minimalist approach, something that Ferrari seems to have executed really well this time. One of the most interesting aspects is that the cabin does not feel overwhelming with multiple screens everywhere. Instead, it features a clean layout with a single dedicated infotainment screen along with a digital instrument cluster, giving the interior a modern yet driver-focused feel. Moreover, the instrument lists include an OLED screen, an aluminium three-spoke steering wheel, large paddle shifters, a panoramic roof, a 21-speaker audio system and tactile switches for climate control and much more.

Powertrain
The Ferrari Luce is powered by four electric motors with a combined output of 1050bhp. However, 0-100km/h comes up in just 2.5 seconds and 0-200km/h in 6.8 seconds. It can all the way reach up to a top speed of 310km/h. Notably, Luce comes loaded with a 122 kWh battery pack, which promises a claimed range up to 530km in a single charge. Although this battery pack supports 350kW fast charging, it can fill up to 70kW in just 20 minutes.
