2027 Ferrari Luce: Everything We Know About Ferrari’s First Electric Car
Ferrari’s First EV Is Not What Anyone Expected Ferrari could have played it safe. The company could have built an electric version of a familiar two-seat supercar, made it low, wide, loud-looking, and called it the future. Instead, Ferrari revealed the 2027 Ferrari Luce: a fully electric, four-door, five-seat grand tourer with a design shaped by Jony Ive and Marc Newson’s LoveFrom studio. It is Ferrari’s first production EV, its first five-seater, and only its second four-doo
POLL: 2027 Ferrari Luce vs. 2024 Jaguar Type 00
Which brand had the worse glowdown? 2027 Ferrari Luce vs. 2024 Jaguar Type 00 Ferrari Luce Ferrari’s first full EV is a huge break from tradition: five seats, four electric motors, futuristic styling, and a design shaped with help from Jony Ive’s LoveFrom team. The controversy is obvious: a lot of people think it looks too clean, too tech-heavy, and not Ferrari enough. Jaguar Type 00 Jaguar’s Type 00 concept was built to launch the brand’s new electric era, with a bold coupe
2006 Ford Reflex Concept
The 2006 Ford Reflex Concept was built to prove that a small car did not have to look cheap, soft, or boring. Shown at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show, it was Ford’s answer to the idea that compact cars were becoming more important in America, but still needed attitude, technology, and a clear identity. The Reflex used a diesel-electric hybrid layout aimed at high fuel economy. Ford claimed up to 65 mpg, or roughly 3.6 L/100 km. The system combined a small diesel engine driving th
2006 Ford Mustang by ItalDesign
The 2006 Ford Mustang by ItalDesign was a one-off concept based on the fifth-generation Mustang GT. It was designed by Fabrizio Giugiaro after he saw the new Mustang and wanted to reinterpret it through an Italian coachbuilding lens. The project was approved by Ford, built by ItalDesign-Giugiaro in Turin, and revealed at the 2006 Los Angeles Auto Show. The concept did not try to erase the Mustang’s identity. It kept the long hood, rear-drive stance, fastback attitude, and agg
2006 Ford iosis X Concept
The 2006 Ford iosis X was a Ford of Europe concept shown at the 2006 Paris Motor Show. It took the “kinetic design” language from the earlier iosis sedan concept and applied it to a crossover body. Ford was clear that it was not a direct production prototype, but it was meant to prepare buyers for a future European niche model. That future model became easy to recognize later: the Ford Kuga. The iosis X had the same broad idea Ford would use in its early European crossovers:
2006 Ford F-250 Super Chief Concept Truck
The 2006 Ford F-250 Super Chief was a heavy-duty pickup concept inspired by America’s old Super Chief passenger trains. It debuted in 2006 as a huge luxury truck with locomotive-style surfacing, a massive grille, rear-hinged rear doors, and a cabin built more like a private railcar than a work truck. The powertrain was the headline. Ford fitted the concept with a supercharged 6.8-liter V10 using a Tri-Flex fuel system, meaning it could run on gasoline, E85 ethanol, or hydroge
2006 Ford 4-Trac Concept Truck
The 2006 Ford 4-Trac was a rugged pickup concept unveiled at the Thailand International Motor Expo in Bangkok. It was not a Detroit show fantasy. Ford chose Thailand because the country was one of the world’s most important pickup markets outside the U.S. and a regional production hub for Ford one-ton trucks. The 4-Trac was a four-door crew-cab pickup with a rescue-truck theme. It had glossy red paint, rugged aluminum panels, a large vertical front end, Ford’s three-bar grill
1969 Dogo SS-2000 Prototype: Argentina’s Forgotten Gullwing Supercar
1969 Dogo SS-2000 Prototype The 1969 Dogo SS-2000 Prototype is one of the rarest and most overlooked concept sports cars ever built in South America. Created by Argentine racing driver and engineer Clemar Bucci, the Dogo combined gullwing doors, lightweight fiberglass construction, Porsche engineering influence, and late-1960s supercar styling into a one-off prototype that looked decades ahead of Argentina’s automotive industry. And unlike many forgotten concept cars of the e
2006 Fiat Skill Fioravanti Concept
The 2006 Fioravanti Skill was a two-seat concept based on the Fiat Grande Punto. It debuted at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show as a small coupe-convertible that could transform into a spider with a pickup-style rear cargo area. Its main trick was the roof. Fioravanti developed a patented retractable rigid-roof system that lets the Skill switch between closed coupe and open spider form. The rear section then worked more like a small utility bed than a normal trunk. That made the Sk
2006 Fiat Panda Jolly Concept by Stola
The 2006 Fiat Panda Jolly was a one-off concept created by Centro Stile Fiat and built by Stola. It was inspired by the old beach-car tradition, especially the 1950s Fiat 600 Multipla Jolly used around Capri. The concept stripped the Panda down into a small open leisure vehicle. It was not trying to be faster or more technical than the production Panda. The point was atmosphere: boat-style materials, open-air usability, and a relaxed resort-shuttle character. Fiat planned the
2006 Fiat FCC Adventure Concept
The 2006 Fiat FCC Adventure was a Brazilian-built concept created to celebrate Fiat’s 30 years in Brazil. FCC stood for Fiat Concept Coupé, and the car debuted at the 2006 São Paulo Motor Show as a two-door crossover based on the Fiat Stilo platform. It looked much tougher than the Stilo underneath. Fiat gave it a raised stance, large wheels, wide body surfacing, off-road-style tires, mudflaps, aluminum trim, and a deep orange finish. The result was closer to a Dakar-inspired
2006 Fiat Ducato Truckster Concept
The 2006 Fiat Ducato Truckster was built to make a commercial van impossible to ignore. It debuted at the 2006 Madrid Motor Show alongside the new-generation Fiat Ducato, which shared its basic family with the Peugeot Boxer and Citroën Jumper. Fiat used the Truckster as a showpiece to prove that a van platform could be stretched far beyond normal delivery-vehicle expectations. The Truckster was huge: 6.48 meters long, 2.55 meters high, and 2.49 meters wide. Fiat’s Style Centr
