Ferrari’s New E-Building: A Milestone in Sustainable Automotive Production

Maranello, June 21, 2024 – Today marks the inauguration of Ferrari’s e-building, a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to producing internal combustion engines, hybrids, and Ferrari’s first electric model. The event will be graced by Italian President Sergio Mattarella alongside Chairman John Elkann, Vice Chairman Piero Ferrari, CEO Benedetto Vigna, and representatives from the Ferrari workforce.

“We are honoured to have President Mattarella with us for this significant occasion,” said John Elkann. “The e-building embodies our commitment to sustainability while ensuring that we continue to invest in our local community and uphold Italian excellence.”

Production Flexibility

The new plant enhances Ferrari’s production flexibility by integrating the manufacturing of various powertrains under one roof. This approach aligns with their strategy of prioritizing quality over quantity. The facility will produce internal combustion engines, hybrid systems, and electric motors—all designed to deliver the exhilarating driving experience synonymous with Ferrari.

This integration allows for more efficient reallocation of production activities across existing facilities in Maranello. Additionally, it houses advanced technology for producing high-voltage batteries and other critical electrical components essential for differentiating Ferrari’s technological edge.

Environmental Focus

The building is designed for optimal energy performance and features over 3,000 solar panels generating 1.3 MW on its roof. By year-end when the trigeneration plant shuts down[1], it will rely entirely on renewable energy sources both internally generated and externally sourced.[2]….



Several innovative solutions have been implemented to reuse energy and rainwater within the production cycle; notably recovering over 60% of energy used during battery testing.
