- Ferrari confirmed a $560,800 starting U.S. price for the Luce with deliveries planned for Q2 2027, after Car and Driver first reported the figure—about $80,000 below the roughly $640,000 estimate that followed its May 25 unveiling.
- Luce carried a €550,000 VAT-inclusive Rome launch price that outlets converted at about $1.16 per euro, producing the earlier ~$640,000 estimate; removing Italy’s 22% VAT yields €450,800, or about $506,000 at today’s $1.12 rate.
- Luce carries a U.S. base price about $55,000 above Italy’s pre-tax equivalent before state sales tax; trade policy accounts for part of that gap through a 15% U.S. tariff on European-built cars, while options are excluded.
- Ferrari sold out the 2026 Luce allocation of just under 500 units in less than two months, with China doing a lot of the heavy lifting.
- Luce’s launch was rough: LoveFrom’s design drew heavy online criticism and Ferrari’s stock fell sharply before recovering, yet its first production chassis sold for $40 million at a Ferrari Foundation charity auction in August.
- Luce uses four motors producing 1,035 hp, an 800V architecture and a 122 kWh SK On battery, charges at up to 350 kW, runs 0–100 km/h in 2.5 seconds, has 529 km of WLTP range and weighs 2,260 kg; it is Ferrari’s first five-seater.
- Lucid Air Sapphire delivers over 1,200 hp for about $250,000, so two would still cost less than the $560,800 Ferrari.
Why it matters: For U.S. buyers, the Luce remains a $560,800 base price with state tax still due and options excluded, versus roughly $506,000 before Italian taxes. Ferrari has nevertheless filled just under 500 2026 slots in less than two months, showing its allocation strategy is already sustaining demand at the premium.
