About Blu Elettrico
Blu Elettrico is one of the most vibrant blue paints offered by Ferrari. It's a darker tone of blue but very saturated and with a light metallic flake. When comparing it to other blue paints, BMW's San Marino Blue is one that closely resembles this one.
The story of Blu Elettrico
Blu Elettrico appears as a special-order paint on Ferraris from 2011. RM Sotheby's described a 2011 SA Aperta, chassis ZFF72RDE3B0182784, delivered new to China, as finished in Extra Campionario Blu Elettrico over Nero; it sold for €995,000 in Paris in 2026. The 2014 LaFerrari chassis ZFF76ZFA2E0207435, ordered by the collector Greg Whitten through Ferrari of Seattle, is the sole LaFerrari in Blu Elettrico over Crema and sold for $4,075,000 in Arizona in 2023. In 2021 autoevolution noted that the color was absent from the F8 Tributo configurator and had to be requested through dealer configuration sessions or Tailor Made. ROSSOautomobili records a revised Blu Elettrico 2020, first used on the SF90 Spider with the Assetto Fiorano package, and a matte Blu Elettrico Opaco.
