Ferrari is going through a real revolution. The first electric model is about to arrive and is already causing discussion.
All the largest car companies are now focused on producing zero-emission models, a need made evident by the still high levels of air pollution in our cities and the worrying damage caused to our ecosystem over the years and reinforced by government decisions that are increasingly moving towards environmental sustainability. The European Union plans to phase out diesel and petrol cars by 2035.
The electric transition is not a simple challenge, and it is even more delicate when we talk about authentic monuments of engines such as Ferrari. The prancing horse has created some of the most iconic models in history, and its vehicles have always been characterized by mind-blowing performance and engines with truly extraordinary potential. For those who make speed and the roar of the engine a true trademark, as in the case of the Maranello models, the transition to electric technology can represent a real threat. The “purists” have long since started to turn up their noses, but Ferrari does not seem to be worried about the difficulties it faces. Indeed, the company seems to have very clear ideas, and the first electric supercar announced by the brand aims to make even the most skeptical fall in love.
Electric Ferrari, first rumors about the battery
The project is obviously shrouded in deep mystery, with very few details revealed so far. However, the well-known Carscoop portal has revealed important rumors about the future car battery, which will obviously play a fundamental role in the performance of the model. Battery life is certainly a concern for all owners of electric cars. Replacement in the event of malfunctions is particularly expensive, as is wear over time. However, in Maranello they are thinking of an alternative solution to solve this problem.
The customers of the next Ferrari electric (but also of the hybrid models of the Cavallino), according to the rumors reported by Bloomberg, they will be able to take out a specific guarantee at a cost of 7,000 euros per year which would not only protect against any defects, but would guarantee that it is replaced after 8 years , and to a second replacement when the vehicle turns 16 years old. For those who can afford a Ferrari, 600 euros a month is not such a disproportionate amount to guarantee total peace of mind.
