    It makes them less efficient

    Who cares? Since when have Ferrari’s ever been about efficiency?

    Ferrari is not helping the average person get into an EV

    So car companies can only implement new features that help the average person get into EV’s? who made you the EV feature police?

    They have videos on youtube with millions of views just based on the sound of them:

    Great to see this as the top comment :\

    They fought it until they saw the writing in the wall

    What wall?

    ANOTHER YEAR OF STRONG PERFORMANCE, ALL 2024 TARGETS EXCEEDED. FURTHER GROWTH IN 2025.

    It’s ferrari, their owners aren’t worried about the oil price, ferrari is about racing passion, status, power, etc not economical ecobility

    If they had any integrity, they would revise their motorsport culture to emphasize the advantages of the EVs they’re selling rather than try to camouflage them as cosplay ICE vehicles

    The fact they are doing this shows integrity, if they really wanted they could just ignore EV’s all together, they have very little mechanics, they don’t make a noise, the lack of gearbox, they are equivalent to appliances for gear heads (which is perfect for me, the fact I haven’t had to work on my EV at all is nice, I just need an appliance to get me from point a to point b, but regardless)

    I just don’t get it, some people like mechanical things, automatic gear shifting was a problem solved 50 years ago but people still like them today, is it possible for you to accept that some people like driving and shifting gears?

    I still don’t understand why this concerns you at all, why not get your MG MG4 and be happy?
