2026 Ferrari Luce Price in Australia

The Ferrari Luce marks one of the most significant changes in Ferrari road-car history. It is the company’s first series-production battery-electric vehicle, its first five-seat model and only its second four-door road car after the Purosangue. For Australia, the Luce is more than a technology showcase: Ferrari Australasia has confirmed local availability and customer orders, with first Australian deliveries expected in late 2027. That makes it a genuine future member of the local Ferrari range rather than a distant concept.

Under the body is a dedicated 800-volt electric architecture with a 122 kWh battery and four permanent-magnet electric motors, one driving each wheel. Published technical information places maximum system output at 772 kW in launch-control conditions, with total torque of 990 Nm. The arrangement allows extremely precise torque distribution and gives Ferrari considerable freedom to shape the car’s behaviour through software, including traction and stability systems that can adapt to the driver and the available grip.

Performance remains central to the brief. Ferrari quotes acceleration from 0–100 km/h in around 2.5 seconds, putting the Luce firmly in supercar territory despite its larger, more practical body. The electric powertrain also enables immediate response without waiting for an engine or gearbox to build revs. Ferrari has worked to preserve a sense of mechanical connection by amplifying real vibrations generated by the motors and drivetrain rather than relying on a conventional synthesised soundtrack.

The five-seat cabin is an equally important part of the Luce story. Ferrari developed the model around a more usable passenger package than its traditional two-seat and 2+ sports cars, giving Australian owners the ability to carry family or friends without stepping outside the brand. The interior was created with a strong emphasis on tactile controls and driver engagement, resisting the trend toward placing every function inside a single touchscreen. This approach should appeal to buyers who want advanced EV technology without losing the sense of occasion expected from a Ferrari.

Chassis development is also unusually sophisticated for a large EV. The aluminium-intensive structure uses advanced semi-active suspension technology derived from Ferrari’s latest performance models, while four-motor control can vary drive force at each wheel. The result is intended to combine grand-touring comfort with the precise responses associated with Maranello. Its size and weight inevitably make it a different proposition from a lightweight mid-engined Ferrari, but that distinction is deliberate: the Luce is designed to create a new type of Ferrari experience.

For Australian buyers, the Luce will sit at the extreme premium end of the electric market and should be considered primarily for its engineering, rarity and brand experience rather than conventional EV value. Final Australian pricing and detailed local equipment remain subject to market confirmation. Its greatest appeal is the combination of Ferrari performance, five-seat practicality and a clean-sheet electric platform; its main compromises are likely to be high cost, substantial mass and the need for dependable high-speed charging on longer interstate journeys.
