Around the first fully electric Ferrari, a storm of opinions has ignited that even the greatest did not expect. The Ferrari Luce has arrived to revolutionize, but also to spark debate, and not only because of its engine.

Stella Li, BYD’s number two, has broken her usual corporate speech to express her personal opinion. And it seems she agrees with what is already circulating online: the design of the Luce has not pleased everyone, not even some competitors.

The controversial aesthetics of the Ferrari Luce

A Ferrari that doesn’t look like a Ferrari

The Luce has left fans and experts stunned. With its five-seat liftback body, designed by LoveFrom with Jony Ive and Marc Newson, it breaks with Ferrari’s traditional DNA. Many consider it a very bold design; even the Asian executive Stella Li admits she shares this view.

Opinions breaking the networks

Social media have exploded with comments describing this model as one of the ugliest in Ferrari’s history. Netizens question the aesthetic coherence and how the Luce radically differs from the iconic image of the Italian brand.

Stella Li and the parallel with BYD Yangwang U9

Unavoidable comparisons

The public not only discusses the appearance but has begun to compare the Luce with the Yangwang U9, BYD’s electric hypercar. Stella Li finds this comparison fascinating and very valuable, as it places BYD at a level of prestige previously unimaginable.

A shift in global perception

According to Li, BYD being part of the same debate as Ferrari is a clear symptom of the change the automotive industry is experiencing. It’s not just about power or performance, but a profound transformation in how we view brands and their models.

The future according to BYD and Stella Li’s vision

An unrelenting strategy

Stella Li makes it clear that BYD is not falling behind: the company will continue to push its technology to build the fastest car on the planet. This determination marks a new era for Chinese manufacturers.

BYD’s role in Formula 1

BYD’s commitment to high-level competition is no secret. The brand is holding talks to enter Formula 1, which could further increase its global presence and prestige, according to recent statements from Stella Li.

Thus, while the Ferrari Luce raises sighs and critiques, BYD positions itself as an unexpected protagonist in the global automotive conversation. Stella Li’s opinions reflect the new landscape where tradition and innovation collide unexpectedly.
