The 2027 Ferrari Luce is a groundbreaking vehicle that marks the Italian automaker's foray into the world of electric vehicles. With a quad-motor powertrain producing over 1,000 horsepower, this car is sure to deliver exceptional performance. The Luce also features four-wheel steering, an adaptive suspension, and handy paddles that allow the driver to easily make changes to torque delivery and regenerative braking.

The EPA has not yet released the official driving range for the Luce, but it is expected to be around 280 miles per charge. The interior is designed in partnership with LoveFrom, a design firm founded by famed Apple designer Jony Ive, and features a luxurious and tech-forward design. The Luce is also Ferrari's first five-seater, with a rear seat that can accommodate a three-across bench seat.

Expert Tip: If you're not ready for an electric Ferrari, consider the Purosangue instead. Its screaming V-12 engine and cabin built for four make it a practical choice that also celebrates internal combustion. The Luce is a new model for the 2027 model year and is Ferrari's first electric vehicle. Car and Driver calculates your car's value in three free and easy steps using the same Black Book data dealers use to appraise vehicles.

Ferrari has not announced official pricing for the Luce yet, but according to reports, the company is aiming for a starting price around the $645,000 mark. When we find out more, we'll update this story with details. A quartet of electric motors will provide all-wheel drive, and Ferrari boasts that the combination pumps out a maximum of 1,035 horsepower. Acceleration will be rapid, and each motor can be independently controlled to optimize traction and cornering.

There is no transmission, as the electric motors directly drive each of the Luce's wheels. Ferrari rethought what the traditional steering-column-mounted shift paddles could be used for. In the Luce, the left paddle allows on-the-fly changes to the regenerative braking system, while the right allows the driver to adjust torque output in five stages. Together, they hope to provide a similar upshift and downshift feel to driving.
