Here\u2019s how they can stay competitive<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The news comes as a shock given the ridicule Ferrari endured following the car\u2019s release in May. Online, users criticized the Luce for its unique look, which was a product of Ferrari\u2019s collaboration with Ive and his design firm LoveFrom. The car stands apart from other Ferraris with its rounded surfaces and unusually large wheels. It also has four doors instead of two like many other models in the famed automaker\u2019s lineup.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Even Luca di Montezemolo, who served as president and chairman of Ferrari for two decades, criticized the car, saying during its unveiling in May that he hoped \u201cthey take the prancing horse off that car, at least.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is definitely a car that, at least, the Chinese won\u2019t copy,\u201d he said in Italian.<\/p>\n<p>Ferrari has positioned the Luce as its solution to capturing wealthy Chinese and Silicon Valley buyers who are already comfortable driving EVs. Yet, it has warned its dealers not to pressure customers accustomed to its gas-powered models to switch to EVs, according to the <em>Financial Times.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The news about Luce\u2019s sales achievement comes as CEO Benedetto Vigna said Thursday he was \u201cvery pleased with how orders are proceeding,\u201d <em>Reuters<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Falling EV sales<\/h2>\n<p>Ferrari\u2019s good news is also salient because EV market share has fallen in the U.S., which accounts for about a quarter of the company\u2019s sales. After President Donald Trump eliminated the federal tax credit for EV purchases in September, new EV sales collapsed by 49% month-over-month in October, according to Cox Automotive. Last month, new EV sales fell 28% from a year earlier and accounted for 5.4% of total new vehicle sales in the U.S.\u2014a decrease from May, according to Cox Automotive.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/crosscountrymovingteams.com\/?p=4596\">Tim Cook signed off on his final Apple earnings call with a warning about a \u2018hundred year flood\u2019\u00a0in memory chip pricing<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Competitors have also recently pulled back on the EV market amid lackluster sales. Lamborghini, which is owned by Volkswagen through its subsidiary Audi, canceled its $300,000 luxury EV, the Lanzador, in 2025, with the carmaker\u2019s CEO Stephan Winkelmann claiming the market and customers were \u201cnot ready.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Ferrari, for its part, scaled back its EV ambitions in October when it said it would now aim for 20% of its lineup to be all-electric by 2030 instead of 40%.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Still, on Thursday Ferrari exceeded analyst expectations by reporting revenue of 1.94 billion euros, or $2.2 billion, for its second quarter. The company also raised its outlook, guiding to 7.6 billion euros ($8.7 billion) through the rest of the year from 7.5 billion euros ($8.6 billion),\u00a0 previously.
