Ferrari lacks the capital to engage in the EV free for all.
Ferrari lacks the engineering depth and talent to enter the fray.
Ferrari has no choice in the matter

IIRC, there was a time not TOO long ago when they said they’d never make an SUV as well.
Ferrari, if you build an V12 pick up truck, I’d buy it. You could name it the Greta V12.🤓 Or the AlGore...🤓
BLASPHEMY! St. Greta is gonna scowl at you so hard...

EV’s vs. Ferrari
Figure it would be Italians doing this.
So many other makes falling all over themselves trying to please the liberal globalists.
I know someone who has a couple of Ferraris, a couple of Teslas, a C8 Corvette, a couple or 3 McLarens, a Cadillac, a Harley-Davidson, high-end ski boat, one of those HondaJets like Michael Avenatti had (well MA had two).
My point is that no one who owns a Ferrari has that as their only car. In fact, it is hard (for me) to imagine Ferrari becoming an “also ran” in the EV world after crafting their unique position in the world of motor vehicles.
