Ferrari's Jony Ive-designed EV defies mockery, meets sales targets

Despite initial mockery and a significant drop in share price following its announcement, Ferrari's first electric vehicle, the Luce, has surpassed its initial sales targets. The $640,000 four-door EV, designed in collaboration with Jony Ive, has reportedly met its 2026 sales goal and is on track to sell 2,500 units by 2030. This success comes amidst a broader downturn in the EV market, with declining sales and competitors like Lamborghini canceling their own EV projects. AI
