We Now Know When Ferrari's First EV Will Debut
Ferrari has confirmed it will unveil its first fully electric vehicle on October 9, 2025.
The EV will be built at Ferrari’s newly opened "E-building" in Maranello, a facility designed to handle the production of high-voltage batteries, electric motors, and axles. Ferrari has not confirmed whether this new line will increase the company's existing production capacity—but did say it will allow for greater levels of customization—something the company has prioritized as part of its revenue strategy.
Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna stressed that Ferrari’s first EV has already undergone extensive on-road testing and will be built with driving engagement as a priority. He stated that internal test drivers— considered Ferrari’s first customers—have been evaluating prototypes to ensure the car meets the brand’s standards.
While Ferrari has provided zero details about the model, test vehicles resembling modified Maserati Levantes have been spotted—Ferrari has previously used Maserati prototypes during development, as seen with the early Purosangue test mules.
Despite introducing an EV, Ferrari is not committing to a fixed sales split between internal combustion, hybrid, and electric models.
Vigna insisted that Ferrari will continue to offer all three powertrain types and that the market—not corporate targets—will determine the demand. He also ruled out lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, stating that the chemistry does not align with Ferrari’s performance goals.
Alongside the new electric model, Ferrari plans to introduce six new models in 2025, including follow-ups to the Roma and SF90 Stradale.
