https://peertube.tv/videos/watch/574224bc-439c-411d-9f6e-42167e6a88b2 For many years, Ferrari has done everything in its power to keep making large-displacement, throaty-engined hypercars for the wealthy. It's shunned any notion of environmental responsibility, lobbied countless lawmakers around the world for exemptions from EV mandates, fuel economy targets, and emissions standards — all while moving away from the aspirational bedroom-wall poster brand of the 1980s and toward an investment vehicle for wealthy 0.1%ers. But last week, it finally brought an EV into the spotlight. The Ferrari Luce. Part engineering exercise, part design exercise in self-congratulation, the Luce may be built in-house — but it owes more to Apple's iconic computers of the late '90s and early 2000s than it does to most Ferraris that came before it. And, being a Ferrari, it will of course attract customers who will enthusiastically buy one for their collection, just as hardened automotive fans reject it with the vehemence of a rare-steak devotee presented with a mushroom burger. But alongside the critique, the criticism, and yes, some pearl-clutching from the peanut gallery, we think the Ferrari Luce does one thing perfectly: it highlights the inequalities that exist in the EV world today — the issues we're seeing time and time again as affordable models become increasingly rare, and an obsession with the ultra-wealthy drives the conversation toward whatever is in vogue, rather than what actually makes the world a better place.
