Sign InThis debut arrives as the broader EV market faces operational headwinds, with market data showing compressed margins for peers like Tesla and Porsche, the latter of which recently adjusted its EV delivery targets. Compared to previous quarterly results, Ferrari has maintained robust revenue growth, providing the capital necessary for high-end battery R&D. Per market data, analysts are focused on whether RACE can sustain its premium pricing power in the electric segment.
Ferrari (RACE) shares stood at $412.50 (at close May 22, 2026) ahead of this landmark event. Traders are watching for market reaction at the open, with the $420 level acting as a key psychological resistance based on recent price action. Looking ahead, investors may also consider the Italian Balance of Trade data from May 18 as a proxy for the health of high-end industrial exports.
Update: Ferrari has officially named its first electric vehicle 'Luce', debuting with a surprising five-seat configuration that expands its utility in the luxury segment. The launch coincides with reports of rival Lamborghini scaling back its own EV ambitions, positioning the 'Luce' as a primary mover in the high-end electric transition.
Update: The company officially revealed the new model is named Luce, launching with a starting price of $586,000. The vehicle features a four-door configuration and delivers a top speed of 193 mph, positioning it in a significantly higher price bracket than most competitors in the current EV market.
