Ferrari Details First EV: Quad-Motor, 1,000-HP GT Due in 2026

The in-house platform uses a 122 kWh 800-volt battery with novel sound and control systems, reflecting a deliberate, slower electrification strategy.

Overview

  • Ferrari unveiled the Elettrica’s core hardware: four electric motors delivering over 1,000 hp, 0–100 km/h in 2.5 seconds and a 310 km/h top speed.
  • A 122 kWh, 800-volt battery supports up to 350 kW DC fast charging and a WLTP range above 530 km, with a modular, serviceable pack assembled by Ferrari using SK On cells.
  • The four-seat, four-door grand tourer uses a 2,960 mm wheelbase and a chassis made from 75% recycled aluminum with 48-volt active suspension, rear-wheel steering and full torque vectoring.
  • Instead of synthetic engine noise, an accelerometer on the rear inverter captures real powertrain vibrations for amplification, and a Torque Shift Engagement system offers five stepped power levels plus Range, Tour and Performance modes.
  • Ferrari plans an interior preview in early 2026, a full reveal in spring 2026 and production the same year, and it told investors EVs will comprise about 20% of its lineup by 2030, a stance that coincided with a sharp share-price drop.
