Designer Jony Ive has washed a fair fleck since he left Apple to offset his own design company, LoveFrom, with Marc Newson. And at present the firm has signed on for a creative partnership with Ferrari and its holding company Exor.

The multi-year partnership is meant to explore "the concern of luxury," though information technology'southward not articulate what the specifics are going to exist. However, it'due south been speculated (via Fiscal Times) that this may have something to do with Ferrari's first all-electrical car.

• Here are the best electrical cars you can buy right now
• Everything we know almost the Apple Car
• Plus: At present's the perfect time to buy an EV — and the UK'south gas crisis proves it

While Ferrari does sell two plug-in hybrids, the Ferrari SF90 Stradale and 296 GTB, its first all-electric vehicle won't exist arriving until 2025. According to the automaker this machine "will be everything you dream the engineers and designers at Maranello can imagine for such a landmark in our history."

It's possible and so that Ive, who designed several acclaimed Apple products including the iPod, iPhone, and Apple Watch may be involved. Unfortunately, we don't know any specifics of what LoveFrom'southward contribution will exist at Ferrari.

The statement simply says that "The first expression of this new partnership volition bring together Ferrari's legendary operation and excellence with LoveFrom's unrivaled experience and creativity that has defined extraordinary world irresolute products".

With cars, peculiarly Tesla, going for a affluent, minimalist interior pattern, it would make sense for a company like Ferrari to partner with someone like Ive. Afterward all he has a history of designing sleek and minimalist products during his time with Apple.

Plus, Apple has reportedly been working on the Apple Car for several years now, long earlier Ive left the company. It'south more than likely that Ive did some sort of pattern piece of work for the car, which would hateful a Ferrari partnership is not completely out of the ordinary.

Merely then again such a partnership will likely involve more than contributions to Ferrari'south electrical car. Ferrari'southward brand is as equally important as its cars, and it has got involved in selling dress, watches and other products. And so it'due south just as likely that LoveFrom will be doing some work in that department instead.

We're just going to have to wait and see what comes from this partnership in the near future. Though I imagine Ferrari will be masking a big deal of whatever LoveFrom comes up with, whether it's related to ane of its cars or something else entirely.
