The first all-electric Ferrari is expected to make its first official appearance later this year. Ahead of its debut, Ferrari’s first EV was spotted testing with an updated design. Take a look at it below.
Ferrari’s first EV caught testing ahead of its official debut
Despite an expected debut later this year, Ferrari has been, for the most part, tight-lipped about its first electric car.
CEO Benedetto Vigna promises it will be “a lot of fun” to drive, as expected from a Ferrari.” Vigna explained, “People buy a Ferrari because when they buy a Ferrari, they have a lot of fun.” The first fully electric model will be no different.
Although it has taken longer than many wanted, Ferrari’s CEO promises its first EV will be built “the right way.” It will still include all the Ferrari-like sound and signature design elements but in an all-electric form.
We caught a glimpse of the upcoming EV a few times already last year as it hit the road for testing. However, the most recent sighting, courtesy of Varryx, gives us an even closer look. The new video reveals an updated prototype and new design features you can expect to see.
Despite still being covered in camouflage, you can see the prototype is wearing new headlights and body panels. It also has several wires and brackets exposed up front.
Like previous sightings, Ferrari’s first EV prototype still has fake tailpipes. As the car passes, you can hear an exhaust-like sound, hinting that a fake one like Dodge’s electric charger could be in the works.

If I didn't know it was a ferrari, I would've assumed it was a Seat.
Last summer, Ferrari opened its new e-building, where the first electric car will be built. The facility will also build e-motors, batteries, and inverters. As you can see, the first electric Ferrari will be a crossover SUV similar to the Purosangue.
The electric crossover SUV is expected to make its first official appearance later this year as a 2026 model. By 2026, Ferrari aims for EVs and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) to account for 60% of sales.
What do you think of Ferrari’s electric crossover? Let us know in the comments. Check back soon for more leading up to its debut later this year.
