You can do it!

The first all-electric Ferrari has still only been seen as a test car in disguise. The pictures of the prototype suggest that the Ferrari Luce will be a four-door E-SUV, a car that the united Ferrari enthusiasts have been waiting for.
Irony off: You can now dismiss the whole idea in advance as not (Ferrari-)socially acceptable and move on to other things. Or perhaps there is a reason to seriously look forward to the Luce.
Because the Ferrari designers have shown remarkable courage in the interior design. Instead of even more screen diagonals, touch functions and flickering, the Luce has analog instruments! In addition, there is a relatively modest screen, about which more critical voices have commented that it looks like the dashboard of a modern small car. I don't see it that way. Because what they are forgetting is the increasing uniqueness that such instrumentation represents.
Small car dashboard? The sober tidiness looks amazingly modern
As I have noticed on other occasions, it is not the abundance of functions that makes a good car, but the way in which what is there is presented and functions, whether things are practical and designed in such a way that they support you while driving and do not distract you. Ferrari seems to have learned its lesson. Of course, there is still the famous manettino, the little switch on the steering wheel. But it doesn't look like a games console, it looks like a sports car!
These are real, analog displays!
Ferrari has clearly taken the more expensive route by deciding to put most of the displays back in their own housing and to use pointers to communicate information about the car to its occupants. There are also real toggle switches again, ones that visually reveal how they are to be operated without provoking many questions.

Either way, I'm pleased, but I'm still not so sure about the drive of the family-friendly e-car from Maranello. Elsewhere, rarely has anything really better come out of a joyful combustion engine replacing an electric motor. We shall see.
