Revealed! This Is Ferrari's First Electric Car Display
JAKARTA - The well-known supercar manufacturer from Italy, Ferrari, will launch its first electric vehicle (EV) next year. After the price of the model was leaked to the public, now the brand with the horse logo was caught on camera while testing its zero emission vehicle.
Launching Carscoops, Friday, June 28, the model was seen walking in the Maranello region, Italy. It was stated that Ferrari used the temporary component of Maserati's model for this test.
The car has a sporty hatchback style by combining five-door bodywork from Maserati Levante, large wheelbase, and low suspension. The front resembles a Ferrari Roma with a sharp nose, a large grille shape, and a light light. However, there is also a force element of BMW M2 on the front bumper's intake.
On the back, Ferrari added an imitation quad exhaust pipe as a decoration as well as a bright yellow lightning sticker on the body and front grip, confirming evidence that this is an EV. Ferrari also presents large diameter rims equipped with Pirelli tires and plastics to accommodate wider trajectories.
Until now, Ferrari is still silent about the specifications, position of its first EV model, and style to be promoted. Previously, the price of Ferrari's first EV leaked to the public in the range of 500,000 euros (Rp8.7 billion). This price reflects their belief that the public and customers are ready for this transition, amid rivals delaying the electrification plan entirely due to weakening demand.
This price does not include other personalization features and options which are expected to increase costs by 15-20 percent. However, Ferrari has not commented on this.
