Ferrari is stepping boldly into the electric era with its first fully electric model, the Ferrari Elettrica 2026. This four door grand tourer is set to launch globally in summer 2026, carrying not only extreme performance but also a groundbreaking innovation that sets it apart from other EVs. Instead of faking the growl of combustion engines, Ferrari has created a real electric sound generated directly from the car’s components. The Elettrica promises to combine Italian design, raw power, and sustainable engineering in one dramatic package.
The Ferrari Elettrica is powered by four electric motors developed fully in Maranello. The front axle delivers 282 hp while the rear provides a massive 831 hp. In boost mode, the combined output exceeds 986 hp, allowing the car to rocket from 0 to 100 km per hour in just 2.5 seconds and reach a top speed of 310 km per hour. Drivers can select from three modes (Range, Tour, and Performance) while the Torque Shift Engagement system lets them fine tune braking and acceleration instantly using paddle shifters. This performance makes the Elettrica one of the most powerful electric cars expected to arrive in Saudi Arabia.
Instead of simulating the roar of a V12, Ferrari engineers designed an authentic electric tone. Sensors inside the inverter capture vibrations from the motors and amplify them, creating a natural frequency that changes with driving style. At high acceleration, the sound builds like a live symphony, while at idle it softens into a whisper. Ferrari calls this a new musical language for electric performance. For Saudi enthusiasts who value emotion in driving, this technology offers a fresh experience that feels alive rather than artificial.
The Elettrica uses a 122 kWh battery pack with the highest energy density currently available in production EVs. This setup gives the car more than 530 km of range on a single charge. With DC fast charging up to 350 kW, recharging takes only minutes. The battery sits in the floor to lower the center of gravity by 80 mm, improving stability at high speeds. Even with a total weight of 2,300 kg, it offers balanced handling that matches Ferrari’s performance heritage. For Saudi buyers, this range ensures long distance driving without compromise.
Although Ferrari has not revealed the final design, prototypes suggest a four door grand tourer inspired by the Purosangue. The car is expected to feature a wheelbase of 2,960 mm, active suspension powered by a 48 volt system, and advanced sound insulation for cabin comfort. The body will use 75 percent recycled aluminum to cut weight and enhance rigidity. Production will take place in Ferrari’s new E Building in Maranello, dedicated to electric and hybrid models. In Saudi Arabia, this design direction makes the Elettrica a perfect blend of practicality, luxury, and future forward identity.
