Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna has not ruled out an electric vehicle being the brand's fastest car in the future, expressing his openness to EVs dominating the time sheets despite the recent backlash the brand faced after the unveiling of its first all-electric car, the Luce.MotorBiscuit reported that Ferrari lost over $4 billion in stock value overnight after the Luce was unveiled, a car that is strikingly different from the sleek, sharp, low-slung Ferraris people have been used to seeing for decades. With a different fuel source, Ferrari has adopted an entirely new design philosophy and has focused most on functional bits that add to the driving experience, such as the interior.However, that did not go down well with purists used to hearing high-revving engines, not even with Luca Cordero di Montezemolo, former chairman of Ferrari, who thinks the Luce should not have the prancing horse on it. He said:Ferrari Luce | Courtesy: Ferrari.comAdvertisementAdvertisement"If I were to say what I really think, it would be unpleasant, so l prefer not to comment. I just hope someone removes the Prancing Horse from that car. We risk destroying a legend, which saddens me greatly. At least this is a car the Chinese won't copy."However, Vigna is not afraid to break tradition to offer customers what they want in this day and age. Drive.com reported his comments:"We have IC (internal combustion), we have the hybrid, and we have the electric. Full stop. Then the client can pick up whatever they want."There are clients that are telling us, 'I will become your client if and only if you have an electric traction car. Otherwise, I will not take an IC because I have to be consistent with the messaging that I'm giving to my son and my daughter.'"AdvertisementAdvertisementHe added:"If you wait for the client to ask for that, it's too late."The Fastest Ferrari Could be an EV in the FutureFerrari's decision to continue putting its money on EVs comes at a time when several automakers have decided to stop making EVs and shift focus instead to producing hybrids and cars running on internal combustion engines (ICE), such as Honda, Porsche, and Lamborghini, to name a few.When asked whether the fastest Ferrari could one day be an EV, Vigna said:"I think that it does not matter which technology you use, as long as you deliver something that the people are in love with."However, there is one kind of car Ferrari will never make, according to Vigna. He said:AdvertisementAdvertisement"We will not make fully autonomous cars — loud and clear. We want the people to have fun, not the [computer] chips.""When I talk about autonomous cars, I talk about L3+. We want to have a steering wheel and a man or a woman behind the steering wheel. Otherwise, why do you buy a Ferrari?"
