Ferrari has unveiled the technical specifications and powertrain details of its first all-electric vehicle, the Elettrica, marking a major step in the luxury automaker’s shift toward electrification. The Italian company disclosed the information during a media briefing at its Maranello headquarters but stopped short of showing the completed car, which will debut in 2026.
Ferrari Chief Executive Benedetto Vigna said the presentation is part of a three-phase introduction plan. “Today we are sharing the technology that will define Ferrari’s electric future,” Vigna said. “Our goal is not just to build an electric vehicle but to deliver the driving thrills that define Ferrari.” The company plans to release more details and pricing in the first quarter of 2026 before a full unveiling in the second quarter of that year.

According to Ferrari, the Elettrica will feature a quad-motor powertrain capable of producing over 1,000 horsepower (830 kW), enabling acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds. The 122 kWh battery will provide a range exceeding 530 km (330 miles), and the car will reach a top speed of 310 km/h (186 mph). Ferrari is developing most of the powertrain in-house, including its electric motors and silicon carbide-based inverters, while sourcing battery cells from South Korea’s SK. The company said its unique battery layout allows for a 47–53% weight distribution and a lower center of gravity to improve handling.
The Elettrica, which will feature four doors, will be produced in the new “E Building” at Maranello. Ferrari said the vehicle is not designed as a traditional supercar but as a mass-produced model within its premium lineup. The automaker’s engineers emphasized that the Elettrica will use modular battery packs that are easier to service and replace, supporting the company’s goal of a long-lasting “forever EV.”

While competitors have opted to outsource electric platforms, Ferrari is designing and manufacturing its own systems. Gianmaria Fulgenzi, Ferrari’s Chief Product Development Officer, said the company focused on “driving pleasure and precision” rather than raw power. “Making an electric vehicle that accelerates quickly is easy,” he said. “Making one that feels like a Ferrari is the real challenge.”
The Elettrica’s advanced features will include a fully active suspension system derived from the latest Ferrari models and rear-wheel steering for improved control. Combined with four independent electric motors and a central control unit managing power and suspension, the system allows real-time adjustments for performance and comfort.

Ferrari’s first electric car will complete the company’s transition into the electric era, more than eight decades after it pioneered the V12 combustion engine. With its own motors, inverters, and chassis systems, Ferrari aims to position the Elettrica as a benchmark for high-performance electric vehicles when it officially arrives in 2026.
