But why can't people hire qualified designers?

I've heard a lot of things about Jony Ive, but unqualified is new.

I suspect he (well, his design company) was asked to design something that not only stands out from all existing normal Ferraris, but is still unmistakably a Ferrari. I think this was accomplished here, just look at the rear lights and tell me you don't get an F40 vibe. It also looks pretty small for its dimensions and weight, which I suspect was also intentional. It's actually bigger and heavier than their crossover SUV and I believe the biggest car they've ever made, certainly in modern times. Half a meter longer than the 458. 30 centimeters longer than the 12Cilindri with its ridiculously long hood.

I also love how this is the guy behind the iOS interface (so basically all modern touchscreen interfaces), while it does have a touchscreen, the interior controls are actually mostly physical buttons and knobs, made of machined aluminium and glass. It looks a bit weird at first glance, but IMO it's a pretty interesting combination of modern and retro. A throwback to the Ferraris of old while acknowledging that this is the future.

I'm not sure I'm a fan of a 5 seater Ferrari personally, though. Should be 2, 4 at the most. Wouldn't have to be as tall in the mid-rear section if it was a 2 seater. The proportions remind me of Polestar 2, which is also an EV... I suspect this is all for efficiency, both aerodynamic and fitting a bunch of batteries in there.

If I was a multimillionaire, I think I'd buy one and if they made a proper 2 seat version, I'd upgrade from "I think" to "I'd definitely". The interior alone is a breath of fresh air compared to most modern high-end cars. Put it this way, here's a Porsche Taycan, another high end electric luxury sports sedan:

Here's the Ferrari Luce:
