Ferrari's first electric car has reportedly cleared the federal approval step needed to be sold in Australia. A Ferrari Luce entry was spotted on the national Register of Approved Vehicles in late October, a little under two months after Ferrari Australasia confirmed a local price of $991,446 before on-road costs.

The listing is a paperwork milestone rather than a delivery date. It means the five-seat electric four-door can legally be supplied here once customer cars are built, and it keeps the Luce on track for the late-2027 local arrival Ferrari has already flagged.

What the approval means

Every new vehicle sold in Australia needs an entry on the Register of Approved Vehicles before it can be supplied to buyers. The register entry for the Luce was reported on 31 October 2026 after it was noticed online a few days earlier. AussieMotor has not been able to view the entry directly, because the public register search only works with a vehicle identification number, so we are treating the approval as reported rather than confirmed.

Ferrari Australasia has not issued a fresh statement about the approval. Nothing about price, timing or specification has changed from what the brand announced in September.

Price and timing

Ferrari Australasia set the Luce at $991,446 before on-road costs when it confirmed the car for Australia on 4 September 2026. That is a manufacturer list price including GST, not a drive-away figure. Stamp duty, registration, dealer delivery and any options will add to the final cost.

First Australian deliveries are expected in the fourth quarter of 2027. A left-hand-drive example was displayed in Sydney in September, but customer cars will be right-hand drive.

Key specifications

These are Ferrari's global figures from the Luce reveal in May 2026. Australian homologation figures have not been published yet, so treat them as a guide until local data appears.

  • Peak output of 1050cv, or about 772kW, from one motor on the front axle and two on the rear
  • 0 to 100km/h in 2.5 seconds, 0 to 200km/h in 6.8 seconds and a top speed above 310km/h
  • 122kWh battery on an 800-volt architecture
  • DC fast charging at up to 350kW
  • Driving range of more than 530km on the European WLTP cycle
  • Kerb weight of 2260kg

The official Ferrari Luce page describes it as the most spacious and versatile Ferrari yet, with all-wheel drive, four doors and five seats.

Where it sits in Ferrari's Australian range

At just under $1 million, the Luce is priced well above the V12 Ferrari Purosangue, the brand's other four-door, and close to its most expensive plug-in hybrid supercars. It is also one of the dearest electric cars announced for Australia. For context on what the top end of the market costs, see our supercar price guide for 2026.

The closest electric rival in spirit is the next-generation high-performance electric Mercedes-AMG GT SUV, which is also due here in late 2027. Neither car has local range or energy use figures yet.

What buyers should know

The approval does not open new order books or change allocation. Anyone interested should talk to a Ferrari dealer about allocation, options and the expected build date, and keep an eye on the Ferrari Luce model page for local specification updates.
