Can tuning save the Ferrari Luce?
It seems that even after the intervention of the Venuum workshop, the new Ferrari Luce has not become more attractive. This tuning kit offers plenty of exposed carbon fiber parts, but does it help the car look dignified?
Details of the transformation by Venuum
Is there any way to make the new Ferrari Luce attractive? We are not sure there is, but these renders show that tuning workshops are already thinking about how to change the design of this controversial five-seat car.
These images were created by the UAE-based workshop Venuum, which sells a wide selection of body kits for exotic cars, including the Ferrari Purosangue, Rolls-Royce Wraith, and will soon present a wide body kit for the Bugatti Chiron. In the case of the Luce, they imagined the car with numerous new body panels. While the result looks aggressive, it resembles a ‘hot’ Japanese sedan more than a car worthy of the Ferrari badge.
Changes at the front and rear
The modifications begin at the front, where Venuum created a carbon splitter for the electric car, as well as a pair of carbon canards. The car also received widened front wheel arches and carbon side skirts. The strange air vents on the front doors are also finished in carbon for a true tuning style.
The rear looks little better. Besides the widened arches, Venuum added a fixed rear wing and an aggressive rear diffuser, also made of carbon fiber.
From bad to worse
It is unclear whether Venuum plans to release such a kit for the Luce, although it seems inevitable, given that other tuning specialists will release their own versions aimed at making the car look more like a true Ferrari. Will any of these kits be able to make the five-seat electric car Italian, and not something that even the Chinese wouldn’t dare copy? We shall see.
Currently, discussions about the Luce’s design are predominantly negative. Ferrari can only hope that the car’s interior and its handling can convince people to buy it.
It is worth noting that the reaction to the Ferrari Luce’s design has been so mixed that even attempts by professional tuning workshops to remedy the situation have not yet yielded the desired result. This suggests that the problem lies not in individual details, but in the very concept of the model’s exterior appearance. Perhaps Ferrari has indeed bet on a radical experiment that will either find its fans or remain in history as one of the brand’s most controversial cars. Further renders and real kits from other masters will show whether this design can be ‘tamed’ at all.
