Car makers consume large amounts of raw materials, and a conscientious planning of the manufacturing process is essential to the careful management of these resources. Among the most used materials in cars are lightweight elements such as aluminum, polymers, and to a lesser extent other metals (copper, titanium, platinum group, silicon, zinc, magnesium) elastomers, fluids, lithium, light rare earth elements.

We have embraced circular economy principles by designing products with durability, reparability, and recyclability in mind. Ferrari cars exemplify this approach, as their durability allows them to be passed on from one generation to the next. Ferrari Classiche services strive to keep as many of these classic cars on the road as possible and extending their lifecycle. Our cars are generally not considered means of transportation but collectible items. Ferrari cars are expected to have a durability of at least 80 years, based on Ferrari’s manufacturing history to date, which began when the Company was founded in 1947. This far exceeds the industry average lifespan, which statistically ranges from 18 years in Western European countries to 28 years in Eastern ones.
