Ferrari’s CEO assures that the Ferrari electric vehicle 2025 EV will be crafted with utmost precision and excellence, with sales commencing in 2026.
Ferrari is set to unveil its first electric vehicle by the end of 2025. Although details are scarce and likely to remain so until the official debut, Ferrari has been hinting at significant, albeit somewhat vague, promises about what customers can expect from this groundbreaking EV.
In an interview with Autocar, Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna disclosed that their EV prototypes, even featuring humorously fake exhaust tips, have already undergone extensive testing, covering “several thousand kilometers.” Vigna assured that, “When we create electric cars, we will do it the right way.” He described the car’s test drivers as Ferrari’s “first clients,” noting that these drivers, who have extensive experience with various vehicles, can provide valuable comparisons. Vigna emphasized that people buy a Ferrari not for any single feature, but for the overall joy and excitement it delivers.
Part of the Ferrari experience is the sound, a defining attribute that will undergo a radical transformation with the introduction of its first electric vehicle. Earlier this year, CEO Benedetto Vigna revealed that Ferrari’s EVs will feature unique “sound signatures,” though he did not provide further details. In 2023, the company patented an exhaust note, and Vigna expressed openness to the possibilities that EVs offer in terms of sound and feel, drawing parallels to the programmable features of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N.
Ferrari customers who prefer combustion engines need not worry. Vigna stated that customer demand will dictate the powertrains Ferrari produces, whether they be combustion, hybrid, or electric. He emphasized that predicting sales based on powertrain types is “an act of arrogance” and shows a lack of “respect to the client,” adding that Ferrari will never disclose sales splits.
The output and price of the EV are expected to remain closely guarded secrets until its official reveal. Vigna did not confirm recent reports suggesting the EV would be priced at $500,000, calling it “a surprise.” He noted that Ferrari sets the MSRP only a month before the car’s launch, but it is widely anticipated that the electric model will not come cheap. Ferrari’s electric car is scheduled to go on sale in 2026.
Secrecy is part of the Ferrari mystique, and the specifics of their EV remain tightly guarded. Here’s what we do know:
- Unveiling in Late 2025: Gear up for a major reveal sometime in late 2025. Expect a stunning design that pushes the boundaries of automotive art, as Ferrari is known for.
- Sales Starting in 2026: Patience is a virtue, as you’ll likely have to wait until 2026 to get your hands on (or should we say, behind the wheel of) this electric stallion.
- Performance Focus: While the sound will change, Ferrari promises an electric experience that delivers the pulse-pounding acceleration and handling the brand is famous for.
- Price Point a Mystery: Just like a Ferrari on Rodeo Drive, expect a hefty price tag. The exact figures are anyone’s guess for now, but rumor has it, it won’t be cheap.
