Like I like the design but it just doesent look like a Ferrari or even Ferrari inspired. Its as if Fiat/FCA designed a neat car but then stuck a Ferrari badge on it

[–] BandanaBug@piefed.social 6 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Bruh. Ferrari is making (electric) crossovers now? We're living in the worst timeline..

[–] Nindelofocho@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (4 children)

I feel like for this to be successful Ferrari would have to do something that showcases craftsmanship and uniqueness in the motors. The engines were a setpiece in many of their cars and that was a big reason you bought one. I cant help but feel EV cars just have motors with different sizes and specs but they are all just some variant of a Samsung/Panasonic/Toshiba design or something thats been scaled up from the motor thats in my washer.

Or they will just not let you buy any other Ferrari until you buy one of these.

[–] Nindelofocho@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (6 children)

I forgot Ferrari does that. That would be hilarious. Eventually Ferrari is going to make you buy a $200,000 matchbox car before you can purchase a normal Ferrari.

I assume that me saying this also bars me from buying a Ferrari (not that I ever could)

It's the car you buy your wife before the divorce.

Ah, in their famous color, Ferrari Blue, the color it has been known for and has used on all its famous cars.

Why cant we get electric cars that dont look like robot vacuums?

[–] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Because robot vacuums are apparently aerodynamic.

I dread to think how many people at Ferrari saw that, had the ability to say "wtf, no", and didn't

[–] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ferrari sell cars to fund their F1 habit. They don’t really put much effort into their road cars.

F1 funds Ferrari. They make money from F1.

Enzo is surely rolling in his grave right now. Him and a lot of the guys that worked for Pininfarina that are now dead.

Not quite as ugly as the Cyber Truck, but holy what an ugly looking Ferarri. I'd probably guess about 5 other car brands before I even thought to guess Ferarri.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 months ago

It pays homage to the Powell Homer.

[–] Darkard@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Honestly, just make it look like a Testarossa. Why does it have to look like a slip on shoe?

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 months ago

Because it was not designed to sell. It was made for compliance on fleet C02 outputs, so they purposely made it overpriced and ugly so they don't actually have to waste time making them.

122 Kwhr battery. Batteries are now $120/Kwhr. So a battery pack is $15K -where the fuck does the other $600K come from? Free coke and ho's?

[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

Looks like shit

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 months ago (6 children)

Why do all electric cars look alike?

I ma not a designer but I know I could easily come up with awesome and cool designs for cars, none of those designs would look like the manager and c-suite designed shit that is on the road now

[–] jagermo@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Right? Pull out one of the concept cars that were impossibe to build in the 70s and use that as a base. Build something cool. What is wrong with Ferrari, Porsche etc? They sell their cars on emotion, not practicallity, why do they have the most boring EVs?

Must be the "car must vroom vroom" brain

[–] Etnaphele@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Do you find the Taycan boring? And based on the reactions, this Luce is everything but 😉

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Do you find the Taycan boring?

Most do, which is why they don't sell.

It's the best looking prius yet

[–] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

Thanks, I hate it.

[–] Zier@fedia.io 7 points 2 months ago (10 children)

It's great that we are getting so many EVs. But why can't people hire qualified designers? There are so many ugly EVs.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The Italian design houses of the 70s-80s are all gone.

[–] vaionko@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Gimme Giorgetto Giugaro back. He designed my current car, and I'm looking to by an 80s car based heavily on his design from the previous generation

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Marcello Gandini designed every poster in every kids rooms for 30 years.

THANK YOU, I am not a car person but you identified the inkling of familiarity I couldn't.

Well, the wheels are nice...

[–] mastod0n@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Someone was inspired by $1 Matchbox cars.

[–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I like it. Wheels are way too big though.

[–] Etnaphele@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

They need them so big, to balance out the big flat side surfaces. They look almost too small still to me :D

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It looks like a Lucid with Ferrari badging. Also is that a back seat I see? Gross.

[–] Logh@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

GT cars usually have 2+2 seating. I actually prefer the useless back seats. At least you have a place to put a giggling child or some extra luggage. That said, the design itself is horrid.

Edit: just saw a few more photos. It has 4 doors, fuck this lump of shit

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (3 children)

It looks nothing like a lucid.

I like the interior, but don't like it's exterior. It should have been a 2 seater and they should have been more imaginative about the drive train and overall layout to achieve something more striking and interesting. It isn't distinct enough from every other ev on the market.

[–] manmachine@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I very much like how The Autopian put it: "Magic Mouse, but car"

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Definitely ugly AF. Pathetic effort.
