But Luce is unlike any other Ferrari<\/a> since Maranello started making cars nearly 80 years ago. Why? Well, just look at it. The radical design has sparked unprecedented controversy online, while the electric drivetrain has only added fuel to the debate. Of course, you\u2019re not going to hear F1 drivers saying negative things about a product their employer is selling for \u20ac550,000 apiece.<\/p>\n Charles Leclerc Notes It Has A Very Different Design Than Past Models<\/p>\n Leclerc does say a few things we can all agree on, such as how \u201cthe design is very-very different to whatever we\u2019ve seen from Ferrari in the past.\u201d Additionally, the return to more physical buttons is likely to be universally appreciated. The 28-year-old Mon\u00e9gasque driver goes on to describe the Luce<\/a> as \u201cvery futuristic,\u201d which is certainly one way to characterize the five-door, five-seat liftback: \u201cIt\u2019s very Ferrari-like to look towards the future and to innovate.\u201d<\/p>\n Lewis Hamilton Likes How It Drives<\/p>\n Hamilton takes a different angle, praising the attention to detail and also describing the car as \u201cvery Ferrari.\u201d Design aside, the seven-time F1 champion appreciates how the Luce feels behind the wheel: \u201cThe power delivery is amazing. You just feel centered the whole time even when you\u2019re going through corners.\u201d<\/p>\n While the video is predictably a carefully orchestrated marketing effort, the comments left by viewers are absolute chaos. You\u2019ll have to scroll quite a bit to find positive feedback. In fact, some users were surprised Ferrari even left the comments section open on YouTube, effectively opening the floodgates to harsh criticism.<\/p>\n Photo by: Ferrari<\/p>\n Don’t Write Off The Ferrari Luce Just Yet<\/p>\n But as unconventional as the Luce looks on the outside, it\u2019s reasonable to assume Ferrari conducted extensive clinics with prospective buyers. The EV has been in development for many years, and logic suggests Maranello had plenty of time to speak with customers and gather feedback.<\/p>\n The outcome has set the Internet ablaze, but Ferrari clearly saw this coming. Later in the video, the company\u2019s Head of Global Product Marketing, Emanuele Carando, accurately describes what the past few days have been like:<\/p>\n ‘Whenever we will unveil the car, there is going to be incredible discussion. We\u2019re going to have some great lovers, and we\u2019re going to have a lot of haters.’<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
