Set for global realise this evening.

My sister's best friend was flown out to Rome by Ferrari over the weekend to look at it, and drive it.

She under embargo until 9pm this evening, but she says she was very pleasantly surprised.

Definitely not No 1 or 4. She's a bit of a journo, but has also accidentally become a bit of an influencer, which we rib her about mercilessly, but it's also the source of most of her motoring exposure now, and where the invasion came via.

I’d have thought most buy Ferraris for the engine noise/power, so how they’ll sell EV’s to enthusiasts is a mystery. Prediction: It will be out of my price range.

Power won't be an issue.

Handling,.looks, feel are high on the list too.

The Luce looks bloody awful IMO. Like something the Chinese would do. No hints of Ferrari heritage or class

IMO a massive mistake in styling

I’d love a 296 because styling is spot on. I wouldn’t go near a A Luce because of the looks.

What the fk is that?

It looks like something salvaged from the bins at Fiat. Then made a bit worse.

I guess this is aimed at the Urus school run crowd?

Have to say I’d rather see this blocking the pavement than an Urus. I bet it’s pretty interesting to look at in person and the interior instantly makes everything else seem outdated.

They already make cars which are not sports cars so we can move on from that discussion(hahah yeah right)

IMO the Purosangue (crap spelling) looks way better.

We're all being a bit harsh I think.

The typo on the press release, it was meant to say Ferrari Lucid I believe. Then it makes sense.

Because there's no Ferrari design DNA in that monstrosity!

I can't wait to see Frank Stephenson's video on how he would improve this. It may be first one where he just deletes it and starts again!

I'd far rather have an Eletre, Taycan Turbo S, RS Etron GT etc etc
