Ferrari delaying second EV due to 'zero' demand
While the first Ferrari EV is still on track to debut this year, the automaker's second all-electric model is being delayed to at least 2028.
Sources at Maranello have told Reuters this second EV was initially due to be unveiled at the end of 2026, but its launch has just been pushed back for a second time, with the car now not set to appear in public until 2028 at the earliest.
One of the newswire's informants said this was down to 'zero' long-term, sustained demand for a high-performance Ferrari EV. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
While the Ferrari's first all-electric car — which will be unveiled later this year, and should start arriving in customers' garages from October 2026 — is a low-volume model, the second EV is planned to be a core model that will sell between 5000 and 6000 units during its five-year lifespan.
Ferrari's first EV (above and below) has reportedly been styled in conjunction with Jony Ive, Apple's former chief designer. It will be larger than other Ferrari models, and have a body that's a not-quite-an-SUV-but-not-quite-a-wagon.
Last spied earlier this year, the prototype has a synthetic V8 soundtrack and will make its debut on October 9, 2025. Pricing will apparently start from US$500,000 ($A770,000), and Ferrari expects to sell roughly 700 to 800 per year. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
Ferrari isn't the first the car maker to change its EV plans. While electric vehicle sales globally continue to grow, demand has been lower than expected. EV adoption has also varied wildly from market to market, with Europe and China embracing the technology, while the US has been slower on the uptake.
This has caused mass-market brands to adjust their plans. Some, like Volvo, are abandoning previously stated goals of going all electric by the turn of the decade, while others are investing in hybrids and plug-in hybrids to help meet interim CO2 emission rules.
Less-than-expected EV demand has also affected the supercar set, with Maserati axing the electric MC20 supercar before its launch, and Lamborghini delaying its first EV until 2029.

2025 Kia Tasman drive-away pricing detailed
After detailing recommended retail prices for its first ute in April, Kia has now published a list of drive-away prices for the all-new dual-cab range. The 2025 Kia Tasman lineup will open at $42,990 before on-road costs or $46,490 drive-away for the entry-level S 4×2 dual-cab pickup. The range tops out at $77,990 drive-away for the X-Pro 4×4. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. Thus far, Kia has only published pricing for the dual-cab pickup, which will be the only body style available when customer deliveries begin in July. Dual-cab/chassis variants will follow in August, followed by single-cab/chassis versions in late 2025. Pricing, either with or without on-road costs, has yet to be announced for these derivatives. Compared to the most affordable single-turbo, dual-cab 4×2 pickup version of the top-selling Ford Ranger, the base dual-cab 4×2 Tasman pickup is more affordable. Based on a New South Wales post code, the Ranger XL Double Cab 4×2 pickup costs $49,734 drive-away. Likewise, the Toyota HiLux WorkMate 4×2 Hi-Rider dual-cab pickup is more expensive than the base Tasman at $49,988 drive-away in NSW, though you can get the popular ute with petrol power and a lower ride height for less than the base Tasman. However, a Ranger Wildtrak Double Cab 4×4 pickup with the 2.0-litre bi-turbo diesel four-cylinder engine is priced at $76,883 drive-away, which makes it more affordable than the flagship Tasman X-Pro. A Toyota HiLux Rogue can be had for $77,499 drive-away, also undercutting the top Tasman. You can also get a Ranger Sport with the optional turbo-diesel V6 for around $600 more in NSW than a four-cylinder Tasman X-Pro. There's only one other Korean ute available in Australia, the KGM Musso. Available only with four-wheel drive and a dual-cab pickup body style, the Musso is priced from $38,000 to $46,500 drive-away. All Tasmans are powered by a 2.2-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine producing 154kW of power and 440Nm of torque, mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
