Ferrari management’s plans to increase the sports car shipments from 7,694 units in 2015 to
approximately 10,000 by 2019. There is plenty of evidence that demand currently far outstrips
supply, for example, customers sometimes need to wait a year or more to get their ordered cars
and in Q2 / 2017 results, Ferrari announced that the entire production of the new sports car 812
Superfast is sold out beyond 2018.Higher
profits from increased sports car sales form
one of the key pillars of increased earnings
in the next two years. From our perspective
there is no risk to the brand exclusivity to
expand the annual production above
10,000 units per annum. Ferrari is the
strongest brand in Formula 1 racing history,
and this performance contributes to the high
esteem in which the brand is regarded.
Therefore we see no risk , that an annual production figure over 10 000 car would dimish the
exclusivity of Ferrari or reduce the brand attraction to the customers.
But there is a challenge to solve if Ferrari push their production level above 10 000 units
As long as Ferrari does not surpass 10,000 units of global production, it is classified as a Small
Vehicle Manufacturer (SVM). Based on the SVM status Ferrari is in a position to negotiate its
fleet emissions directly with the EU so they are not be administrated by the 95g CO2/km cap for
other larger manufacturers. On the way to expand the fleet production, Ferrari agreed back in
2014 with the EU that it would deliver a 20% reduction in its average fleet emissions, which had
a mark in 2014 of 270g CO2/km and therefore it should be a mark of 216g CO2/km by 2021.
On the way to meet this target Ferrari has subsequently downsized and turbocharged all its V-8
engines and fitted its LaFerrari V-12 supercar with a hybrid electric powertrain that will be further
developed for use across the entire range from 2019. On the other side of the coin it is legitime
to say that Ferrari customers paying € 200 000 or more for a car, would not get nervous if they
have to pay few extra thousand euros in emissions fines and therefore , they have still the fun
the have a real engine under the hood. We see to some extend the emmision regulation as a
challenge to expand the production volume above 10 000 units, but we perceive it not as
limitation for Ferrari to do so.
From a strategic perspective it is more interesting , how does the future product pipe line look
like to move over the 10 000 units mark.

Is it a SUV that will be added to the product portfolio?
Based on recent media reports, the discussion that Ferrari might launch a SUV vehicle in 2021
turns more and more from rumours level to reality.
Mr Marchionne admitted that such a vehicle was being evaluated if it could match Ferrari’s
sporting DNA and brand ethos. We be told that Mr Marchionne will give more details to this
plans, at the capital markets day, when Ferrari presents the new five-year plan to 2022
scheduled approximeadetly H1 2018.
A Ferrari SUV, would outperform the chinese market. China, is a market which has no sports
car culture and if you have been driving a car on the street in China , that´s no wonder due to
traffic jam and truck frequency. The wealthy people in China prefer to have drivers and therefore
it is no surprise that they prefer more space on the back seat for theirself and their business
guests. This is one of the reasons Porsche is successful with the four-door Cayenne and Macan
SUVs in China.
We don´t limit the market success for a Ferrari SUV version to the Chinese market, it can be
successful in every market. The point is that the Ferrari SUV must create distinction in the
Super-SUV Segment. Ferrari knows that and Mr Marchionne confirmed during the 2Q17
earnings call that the SUV vehicle, “Will probably happen but it will happen in Ferrari’s style”.
What creates the distinction of a SUV in Ferrari’s style?
From a sportive character we see Lamborghini´s forthcoming Urus as the closest competitor
and Lamborghini has now confirmed the release date for the Urus the manufacturer's brand-
new SUV, for December 4th
2017.
The Lamborghini Urus will cost around $200,000 when it
goes on sale. The marque expects to build 1,000 units of
the Urus in 2018 before boosting volume to 3,500 units in
2019 at full production. Lamborghini estimates that the
Urus will account for half of the Italian supercar maker’s
annual output. The Lamborghini Urus will come with a
standard 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine having 650
horsepower or respectively 484 kilowatts, which could make it the quickest SUV on the market.
This position is currently owned by the Bentley Bentayga.
We don´t see the Ferrari SUV distinction in the horse power, it will be light weight and driving
performance. The current Super – SUV have all massive horse power but still they are monster
in weight.The Bentley Bentayga has a kerb weight of 2440 kg , the Porsche Cayenne S still
weights 2175 kg, in general Super – SUV´s are well above a kerb weight mark of 2000kg.
So far as we know, Projectcode of the Ferrari SUV Project is F16X and the vehicle should be
build on the basis technology of the GTC4 - Lusso- successor named F166.
We think Ferrari would be able make a Super – SUV vehicle, which will be below 2000 kg, this
would create a benchmark in this field, we call it also distinction. A lot of horsepower in
combination with light weight technology, will also satisfy the enthusiasm sport car buyers of
Ferrari.
The main aim for Ferrari is to double profits by 2022, and the key to meet this targets are new
products. This could also include to produce more than 10,000 cars per year including a SUV
vehicle.
