Recently, Ferrari's first all-electric model, the Luce, made its official debut, sparking significant debate over its exterior design. Regarding the design, former Chairman Luca di Montezemolo, who led Ferrari for 23 years, publicly issued sharp criticism of the vehicle.
In an interview, he stated, "If I were to speak my true thoughts, I fear it would harm Ferrari's reputation. This car has the potential to ruin this legendary brand, and I deeply regret that. I only hope the brand would at least remove the Prancing Horse emblem from the car."
Additionally, he remarked, "At least one thing is certain: Chinese automakers would never imitate the Luce."
This afternoon, Li Boxiao, Deputy General Manager of Lantu Automobile Sales Service Co., Ltd., responded to Montezemolo's comments via a Weibo post.
Li Boxiao stated, "Ferrari released its first all-electric product, only to be criticized by the former Ferrari chairman, who also brought Chinese cars into the discussion, calling it a 'design that even Chinese cars wouldn't copy.' He's right!!! Chinese cars have absolutely no interest in copying you!!!—Whether it's design, intelligent driving, cabin, or architecture... we are on a completely different path. The old world remains immersed in its old games. Different people, different dreams."
