Ferrari Elettrica 2026 - official data without invented TCO

Ferrari has now published the key technical data for Elettrica. The traction battery is 122 kWh gross, not 195 kWh. The earlier article confused the official energy-density figure of 195 Wh/kg with battery capacity. This version corrects that unit error, removes the unsupported price and does not publish a TCO result before a verified market price is available.

What Ferrari has confirmed

Ferrari's official technical presentation describes a 122 kWh gross high-voltage battery, an 880 V architecture and DC charging power of up to 350 kW. The company states a specific energy of almost 195 Wh/kg. That last value expresses how much energy is stored per kilogram of battery. It is not the capacity of the complete pack.

Ferrari also quotes more than 1,000 CV of available boost power, an estimated range above 530 km and a target vehicle mass of about 2,300 kg. These are manufacturer figures and should remain labelled as such until final homologation data are published. They are useful for describing the engineering concept, but they are not enough to calculate ownership cost.

The 195 kWh mistake explained

Battery capacity is measured in kilowatt-hours, or kWh. Specific energy is measured in watt-hours per kilogram, or Wh/kg. Ferrari used the second unit when discussing cell and pack efficiency. The previous text copied the number but changed the unit, producing a battery almost sixty percent larger than the one in Ferrari's documentation.

This was not an alternative prototype specification or an industry rumour worth preserving. It was a plain data error. We have therefore removed every range, weight and charging conclusion that depended on the false 195 kWh input. A correction must address the downstream claims, not only replace one number in a table.

Why there is no TCO figure

RealTCO v5.0 needs a consistent vehicle record: a verified purchase price for the relevant market, drivetrain and consumption data, insurance assumptions, maintenance inputs and a depreciation path. Ferrari has not supplied a Polish or euro-area retail price that we can use as a confirmed entry in the calculator. A media estimate or a converted rumour would make every later figure look precise while remaining unsupported.

Comparing Elettrica with Purosangue would not solve the problem. They differ in body style, use case and market position, and one unverified price cannot be validated by another car's catalogue price. For the same reason, we do not invent insurance premiums or residual value for a new electric Ferrari with no established used market.

How we will add the calculation later

Once Ferrari publishes an official price and final market specification, we will update the vehicle database first. We will then run the production calculation engine for a disclosed mileage, ownership period, charging profile and financing method. Only the values returned by that engine will be copied into the article. Until then, this page is a sourced technical summary rather than a cost ranking.
