Elektromobilität: Ferrari Luce erzielt 40 Millionen Dollar bei Auktion
Nach der Premiere erntete der Ferrari Luce viel Spott und Häme. Doch bei Sammlern ist das Modell offenbar begehrt. Bei einer Auktion wurde es nun für eine Rekordsumme verkauft.
Ferraris inaugural fully electric model, the Luce, has shattered records at a California auction. A one-of-a-kind Luce was sold for 40 million dollars during the Monterey Car Week, according to the sports car manufacturer, it is the most expensive new vehicle ever sold at auction. The auction, conducted by Sotheby's, was for charity purposes.
This significantly surpasses the previous record set last year, where a specially configured Daytona SP3 fetched 26 million dollars. Ferrari's foray into electromobility was met with initial skepticism, but the success is remarkable given the car's introduction in May. The Luce was priced at 550,000 euros, a figure that initially sparked criticism and affected the company's stock.
This electric model represents a departure from Ferrari's traditional high-performance sports cars powered by internal combustion engines. The Luce was developed in collaboration with LoveFrom, the design studio of former Apple chief designer Jony Ive. Ive is known for his influential role in creating iconic products like the iPhone and iMac.
