Ferrari’s stock plunges 16% as new 2030 goals underwhelm despite EV reveal

Ferrari shares tumbled over 16% on Thursday, erasing nearly €13.5 billion ($15.7 billion) in market value, after investors were disappointed by the company’s 2030 financial targets unveiled alongside the debut of its first electric vehicle (EV) platform.

The luxury carmaker raised its long-term revenue goal to €9 billion by 2030, up from €7.1 billion projected for this year. However, analysts called the target “underwhelming” compared to market expectations. “People were expecting a higher top line,” CEO Benedetto Vigna said during the presentation in Maranello, adding that Ferrari preferred realistic goals over overpromising.

Ferrari also scaled back its EV ambitions, now targeting a 2030 lineup comprising 40% internal combustion engines (ICE), 40% hybrids, and 20% fully electric vehicles, compared to the 2022 plan that aimed for 40% EVs.

At the event, Ferrari unveiled the Elettrica, its first electric car, showcasing a production-ready chassis with in-house-designed battery packs and electric motors from its new “e-building” facility in Maranello. The car will feature over 1,000 horsepower and seat four but has no confirmed price or release date yet.

Analysts at Citi said the updated guidance “fell below consensus expectations,” triggering the sharpest one-day decline in Ferrari’s shares since early 2024.

The company reaffirmed plans to launch four new models annually between 2026 and 2030 and expand its luxury lifestyle business with “Tailor Made” centers in Tokyo and Los Angeles and flagship stores in London and New York.
