Jony Ive is anxious to reveal the exterior of the Ferrari Luce, but should Ferrari fans be worried?

The spy photos of the Ferrari Luce’s exterior look absolutely hideous, the worst manifestation of a sporty hearse that you could imagine. It looks like an absolute disaster of a vehicle, but spy photos are meant to completely disguise the shape of the vehicle, so it’s anyone’s guess how radical it will look.

Jony’s vibe seems optimistic even though there are mixed signals (from Carscoops):

It’s not concern over the design itself that sparks that feeling, but instead the gravity of just how big this moment is for Ferrari. He called it “still clearly a Ferrari,” but went on to say that “It’s a different manifestation based on some of the beliefs around simplicity and the inherent beauty of something.” […]

Ive has also stressed that there is “no disconnection” between the exterior and interior, noting that both were designed simultaneously rather than by separate departments. In his view, that approach results in a complete package that feels cohesive rather than pieced together.

Still clearly a Ferrari, but also a different manifestation based on simplicity and beauty, and no disconnection between the exterior and interior. Mixed signals that manifest in anxiety if you ask me.

The full exterior reveal will be in May, but in the meantime, check out some interior design features that Apple fans would appreciate.
