Joysteer
The wheel is made of a specially developed 100% recycled aluminum alloy, and consists of 19 separate CNC-machined parts. It’s clearly inspired by the Momo wheels you’d find on classic 1950s and ’60s Ferraris.
I-pod
There are two little pods beneath the main spars; on the left is a dial that alters the Luce’s 1,000hp-plus powertrain (Range, Tour and Performance), on the right a reimagined manettino governs chassis configuration.
Dial tone
Dials feature Samsung tech, an ultra-slim overlapping OLED that delivers a perfect black and infinite contrast ratio. Multi-layered lenses are used and the dials’ graphics are a nod to the Veglia or Jaeger instruments in classic Ferraris. The needle is made of anodised aluminium, backlit by LEDs.

PIVOT! PIVOT!
The central display is a 10.2in screen that pivots on a ball and socket joint. There’s also a palm rest so that the driver isn’t jabbing helplessly at the screen. Old school toggle switches operate the climate control. There’s a ‘multi-graph’ top right on the screen, with four functions: clock, chronograph, compass, and launch control.
Plug n’ play
The drive selector and centre console use a type of Gorilla glass similar to that found on the iPhone. It’s supplied by a specialist called Corning, and it’s both reinforced and also fingerprint resistant. The key goes from yellow to black when it sits in a magnetised dock, at which point the whole interior display ‘wakes up.’
