What it likely didn\u2019t expect was getting roasted by a famous Swiss chocolate company.<\/p>\n<p>The internet has spent the last couple of days absolutely demolishing Ferrari\u2019s first fully electric model, comparing it to everything from a rechargeable Apple mouse to a Nissan hatchback. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2026\/05\/ferrari-luce-ai-parody-video\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI-generated videos<\/a> showing Enzo <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/ferrari\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ferrari<\/a> detonating the car have spread everywhere online, and now even Toblerone has decided joining the fun was too tempting to resist.<\/p>\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2026\/05\/lamborghini-ferrari-ev-strategy\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ferrari\u2019s Luce Got Savaged, And Lamborghini\u2019s CEO Couldn\u2019t Resist<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Swiss chocolate brand posted a hilariously image on social media showing a redesigned Toblerone bar with all its trademark triangular peaks smoothed away into one shapeless sausage.

Former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo, who led the company for 23 years and famously resisted approving an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/suv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">SUV<\/a>, delivered what might be the most devastating reaction yet.<\/p>\n<p>Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2026\/05\/ferrari-luce-rebadged-renderings\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ferrari\u2019s New Luce EV Looks So Un-Ferrari We Tried It With Five Other Badges<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I had to say what I really think, I would be hurting Ferrari,\u201d the 78-year-old said, looking visibly outraged. He followed up by warning Ferrari risks \u201cthe destruction of a legend\u201d and suggested they should perhaps even remove the prancing horse badge entirely. The one thing Ferrari had in its favor, di Montezemolo said, is that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2026\/05\/ferrari-luce-montezemolo-criticism\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">not even the Chinese<\/a> will try to copy it.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe he\u2019ll change his mind if he gets a chance to drive it. Ferrari claims the Luce produces 1,035 hp (1,050 PS \/ 772 kW) from four electric motors and hits 62 mph (100 kmh) in 2.5 seconds. That makes it quicker than some of Ferrari\u2019s own combustion cars, yet the Luce has space for five and a huge trunk.<\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><br \/>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazy \" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arrow.png\" data-type=\"inarticle-image\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Ferrari, Toblerone<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ferrari\u2019s controversial Luce EV has become such meme material even a chocolate brand has joined the pile-on https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/author\/chris-chilton-cc\/&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":73724,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4],"tags":[187,19573,38954,38955,41,17],"class_list":["post-73723","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-switzerland","tag-electric-vehicles","tag-ferrari","tag-ferrari-luce","tag-offbeat-news","tag-swiss","tag-switzerland"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ch\/116653385795011085","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73723","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73723"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73723\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/73724"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73723"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73723"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73723"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
