Four features from the Ferrari Luce that scream Apple Design.

Jony Ive's LoveFrom Design Studio was hired by Ferrari to work on the internal design of Ferrari's new all-electric Ferrari Luce, and there are some unmistakable Apple-like design features that are hidden throughout the design.

1. The Rounded Rectangle

The Rounded Rectangle has received proper noun status, being the symbol for the current day iPhone that started it all, and has trickled down from iPhone, to iPad, to Apple Watch. The most obvious place you notice the Rounded Rectangle is in the center control panel.

The angular pose is also similar to many iPhone reveals in the past.

It looks like an iPad and an Apple Watch Ultra gave birth to this design. Looks like a Mac Pro handle is supporting it all?

2. The Ferrari Key

All exotic cars have special key fobs, and this Ferrari is no exception. Apple fans will appreciate the lock and unlock logo that are very similar to Apple's privacy lock. Most standard cars' "unlock" button is kinked open, but Apple's open lock has always been turned outwards, mimicked in the Ferrari Luce.

The key's side profile even has antenna lines like an iPhone.

3. Air Conditioning vents

This is the most obvious design similarity - they are literal copies of Apple's MagSafe charging pucks. Copying might be a harsh word since many of Jony Ive's team might have been the ones who designed the MagSafe charger to begin with. The MagSafe AC vent does look good.

Four vents in the front - get a little closer and...

the resemblance is uncanny.

4. Steering wheel colors

Most Ferraris let you choose the steering wheel leather color, but on the Luce, you can choose the color of the "aluminium" steering wheel. The colors themselves mimic Apple's Silver, Starlight, and Space Gray options.
