Ferrari's first electric vehicle, the Luce, features a 1,000 horsepower engine and a 0-62 mph time of 2.5 seconds. The interior, designed in collaboration with Jony Ive's LoveFrom, includes blends of digital and analog elements. The dashboard features custom glass from Corning, designed to eliminate 99% of glare and used for the large instrument cluster and a compact, illuminated shifter knob. Corning developed a new glass formula, Fusion 5, specifically for the Luce, which undergoes a high-temperature salt bath and precision laser drilling for durability and visual intrigue. Samsung contributed OLED technology for the instrument dials and collaborated on the unique circular cutout in the infotainment screen.
