Ferrari, moving ahead with diversification plan with hybrids and electrics

The first step towards this goal is set for the end of May. Among the novelties of 2026, there are in fact the presentation of the sailing boat Hypersail, which 'will mark the debut in a new competitive sphere' and the long-awaited electric Ferrari Luce, which will be unveiled in Rome on 25 May. 'Luce is more than a name,' explained Elkann. 'It expresses a clear idea: at Ferrari, technology is never the end point. It is a way of creating performance and emotions in a new form'. The chairman emphasised that the project required "a new creative process", developed in collaboration with LoveFrom, the design studio founded by Jony Ive. "It was not about changing our identity, but about exploring new possibilities with the same standards and ambition". The electric debut 'opens a new chapter in our history and is, once again, a statement of what a Ferrari can be, while remaining deeply rooted in the brand's identity and values. For this reason, it deserved an unprecedented presentation in three stages. A journey of discovery that will culminate on 25 May in Rome with the world premiere,' recalled Vigna.

The official launch of Luce comes after a significant year for the Maranello company. Elkann pointed out that 'in October, during our Capital Markets Day in Maranello, we presented our vision to 2030. This plan gives Ferrari a clear direction for the years to come. Our ambitions for the future are rooted in the same principles that have made Ferrari what it is: responsibility and the courage to evolve'. Vigna then recalled that '2025 was a year of consistent execution and important new beginnings for Ferrari. In all three of our areas of activity, we have achieved solid results, strengthened our foundations and opened new chapters for the future. This resulted in another year of excellent financial performance'. With specific reference to 2026, 'our priority is to continue to focus on research and development, because only by constantly innovating can we continue to redefine the limits of what is possible. And we will do it the Ferrari way, with sustainability at the heart of every initiative of ours and our partners,' Vigna continued.

Formula 1 season below expectations

On the Formula 1 front, finally, the president admitted that the 2025 season was 'below our ambitions', but looked ahead with confidence: 'Ferrari knows that racing also means learning and progressing. After a season below our ambitions, in 2026 we entered a new championship with new regulations. We do so with unity and determination, fully focused on the work ahead of us to come back stronger'. Elkann then recalled that '2025 was a year of solid achievement and important new beginnings' with Ferrari winning 'both the constructors' and drivers' titles in the Fia World Endurance Championship'. Furthermore, Elkann continued, 'in June 2025 we presented Hypersail. By the end of the year we will unveil the boat that will take Ferrari into a new competitive arena, with the same innovative approach, courage and spirit with which we race on the track. 2025 has been a year in which Ferrari has continued to perform at the highest level, while opening new chapters that will shape the next phase of our journey'.
