Specialist programme considerations
Ferrari Luce
Full-electric Ferrari
In our view, the Ferrari Luce should not be treated as another car to add to a salary sacrifice catalogue. Senior employees may ask about it because it is fully electric, but the tax position is only one part of the answer.
Manufacturer authorisation and an agreed employer route would be required.
Reviewed 5 September 2026
A model can include current and forthcoming body styles, so availability counts can overlap. Announced dates can change and do not guarantee an individual delivery. Selecting a minimum seat count excludes cars whose seating is not yet confirmed. Check the model page and a dated provider quotation before making a decision.
Plan around the car you need
Use the labelled milestones to plan your shortlist. Order and launch windows are shown chronologically where known; a reveal date is not treated as a delivery date. Concepts, longer-term plans, and specialist programme considerations are grouped separately.
If your replacement is needed sooner, compare current cars. For a forthcoming car, confirm passenger space, charging access, the actual UK specification, and the provider’s delivery estimate before committing.
We advise employers on car benefit programmes, supplier arrangements, and the employee experience. These guides support that decision; they are not live leasing offers. Once you have a dated quotation, our salary sacrifice calculator can help you explore its assumptions.
