On October 9th， at the Ferrari Capital Day event， Ferrari unveiled key technologies for its first-ever electric vehicle， tentatively named Elettrica， meaning “electric” in Italian. The upcoming model will be a five-door vehicle.
In terms of powertrain， the Ferrari electric vehicle will feature a dual-motor setup on both the front and rear axles， totaling four permanent magnet synchronous motors. These motors can reach rotational speeds of up to 30，000 rpm. The combined power output for the front axle motors is 210 kW， and for the rear axle， it is 620 kW， resulting in a colossal total output of 1134.2 PS for the entire vehicle. This impressive power output is crucial for a brand like Ferrari， which is synonymous with high performance， ensuring that its entry into the electric vehicle market does not compromise on its performance heritage.
Under boost mode， the vehicle is expected to achieve a 0-100 km/h acceleration in a mere 2.5 seconds， with a top speed reaching 310 km/h. These figures firmly place the Ferrari electric car amongst the elite hypercars， demonstrating Ferrari’s commitment to delivering exhilarating driving dynamics， even in an electric format.
The battery system employs a modular design， comprising a total of 15 modules， with each module containing 14 ternary lithium battery cells supplied by SK On. This modular approach allows for potential scalability and easier maintenance or upgrades in the future. The choice of SK On as a supplier indicates a reliance on established and reputable battery manufacturers， a critical aspect for ensuring reliability and performance.
The battery pack operates at a maximum voltage of 800V and boasts a total capacity of 122 kWh， with an energy density of 195 Wh/kg. This configuration is designed to provide a driving range of approximately 520 km and supports a peak charging power of 350 kW. The 800V architecture is becoming increasingly standard for high-performance EVs， enabling faster charging times， which is essential for user convenience， especially for a luxury GT or supercar where long journeys might be anticipated.
Furthermore， the Ferrari electric vehicle is equipped with a third-generation active suspension system. This advanced system utilizes motors and ball screw designs attached to the shock absorbers to actively control the suspension travel at all four corners. The vehicle’s control unit updates dynamic parameters 200 times per second， enabling the suspension to proactively adapt to road imperfections， such as raising or lowering the wheels to smooth out bumps and maintain optimal tire contact.
The steering wheel features the iconic Manettino dial， which has been enhanced with a new “Dry” mode positioned between “Wet” and “Sport” modes， offering greater versatility across various driving conditions. This integration of nuanced driving modes speaks to Ferrari’s focus on driver engagement and performance customization. Additionally， drivers can select from five distinct power and torque output levels by using the right-side paddle shifters， providing an engaging， almost “gear-shifting” sensation unique to electric vehicles. The left paddle shifter， on the other hand， offers progressive simulated engine braking effects during deceleration.
Ferrari plans to produce its new electric vehicle at its E-Building within the Maranello factory. The official debut is anticipated in the first half of 2026， marking a significant milestone in the legendary automaker’s transition towards electrification.
