Ferrari's first fully electric car faced severe criticism immediately after launch, impacting the company's market position. Developed under designer Sir Jony Ive, the Coche's design and concept did not meet consumer or critic expectations. This five-seater, a first in Ferrari's history, delivers extraordinary performance, accelerating from 0 to 96 km/h in 2.5 seconds. Priced at $640,000 (about Rs180 million), it was unveiled in a ceremony attended by top Italian figures, including the president and Pope Leo. Despite the grand event, Ferrari's share price fell 8% the following day, signaling investor disappointment and a negative market reaction.
Critics, investors, and some political figures have also questioned the car's design and concept. Social media is showing mixed reactions to its unique style. Experts say that this step by Ferrari, in the growing global market for electric vehicles, is historic. However, the company may need to work harder to convince traditional sports car enthusiasts.
