Ferrari has unveiled details about its first all-electric vehicle, the Luce, which features a cutting-edge interior designed in collaboration with the Apple design team led by Sir Jony Ive and Marc Newson. The Luce boasts impressive performance specs, including 1,000 horsepower and a sub-2.5-second 0-62 mph time, but the focus is on the vehicle's innovative cabin design that blends advanced technology with a minimalist, driver-focused approach.

Why it matters

The Luce represents Ferrari's first foray into the all-electric vehicle market, a significant move for the iconic Italian automaker known for its high-performance gasoline-powered supercars. The collaboration with the Apple design team, known for their groundbreaking work on products like the iMac, iPod, and iPhone, is expected to push the boundaries of automotive interior design and user experience.

The details

The Luce's interior was developed by the Ferrari Styling Centre in collaboration with LoveFrom, the San Francisco-based creative collective led by Sir Jony Ive and Marc Newson. The cabin features a clean, simplified design with essential elements like the binnacle, control panel, and central console organized around inputs and outputs. Much of the metal used is recycled and anodized aluminum, while the glass is precision-milled Corning Gorilla Glass. The interface combines touch screens and mechanical controls, eschewing the trend towards massive, button-less displays. The steering wheel, key, and shifter all feature innovative Gorilla Glass components, and the instrument cluster is mounted directly to the steering column for a more immersive driving experience.

  • The Luce is expected to be fully unveiled in May 2026.
