According to Benedetto Vigna, head of the Italian firm, Tesla has drastically accelerated the industry and has been good for the entire market. Tesla’s great contribution to the automobile industry? It’s been a wake up call“Vigna has acknowledged in an interview for Bloomberg. “Things used to go too slowly. Tesla shook up the industry and sped up processes and decisions.”
However, for Vigna Tesla vehicles are not attractive enough. “They are functional cars that are designed to take people from point A to point B, while emitting zero carbon dioxide. You don’t care about the brand. What really matters is that it moves you. And on the other hand, there are emotional cars that give you a unique driving experience, like the Ferraris”, he added.

We will study all the technologies to offer a unique experience and continue to be what Ferrari is today.”
