Key Takeaways

Mark your calendars, purists. The inevitable has arrived.

Ferrari will unveil its first-ever all-electric vehicle on October 9, 2025. No speculation. No rumors. Straight from CEO Benedetto Vigna’s mouth during the company’s 2024 financial results announcement.

The Maranello Money Machine

Ferrari’s bank account isn’t hurting while they prepare to plug in. The Italian stallion galloped to a 12% revenue increase in 2024, raking in a staggering €6.7 billion. Profits jumped 21% to €1.53 billion.

Cash flows like premium fuel at Maranello these days.

Six New Ponies in the Stable

The EV won’t arrive alone. It’s just one of six new models Ferrari plans to unleash in 2025. While Vigna kept his cards close on specifics, industry whispers point to:

  • The track-focused 296 VS with more power and less weight
  • A refreshed SF90 with hybrid powertrain updates
  • An updated Roma with revised styling and tech

Expect the usual Ferrari formula: more power, more tech, more zeros on the price tag.

Mules in Disguise

Test mules are already prowling around Maranello.

Spy photographers have caught prototypes wearing Maserati Levante bodywork with Ferrari Roma headlights bolted on – the automotive equivalent of wearing a fake mustache and glasses.

The wheels scream “electric vehicle” to trained eyes, but everything else remains tightly guarded.

“A True Ferrari”

Vigna insists this battery-powered Ferrari will be “a true Ferrari in every aspect.”

He’s promised the EV will debut “in a unique and innovative way.” Translation: expect theatrical lighting, emotional Italian speeches, and enough drama to fill an opera house.

The question remains whether electrons can deliver the spine-tingling, hair-raising experience of Ferrari’s combustion masterpieces. The soul of Ferrari lives in its engine note – and batteries don’t sing like V12s.

October 9, 2025, will reveal whether Maranello’s engineers have found the formula for electric emotion or if this marks the beginning of Ferrari’s sanitized future.
