According to the EV owner who spotted the illegally parked Ferrari F430, plenty of unoccupied parking spots were available in the facility

- A Ferrari owner thought it would be funny to park his supercar in a spot reserved for EVs.
- The driver placed the charging plug on the wheels pretending the car was charging.
- ICEing is the selfish act of illegally parked vehicles blocking access to EV chargers.
Pickup truck owners may have cornered the market on trolling EV drivers by occupying charging spaces, but they’re far from the only offenders when it comes to “ICEing”—the maddeningly inconsiderate practice of internal combustion vehicles hogging charging stations.
A prime example of this came recently in Athens, Greece, where a Ferrari F430 was spotted shamelessly parked next to an EV charger, despite plenty of empty regular parking spaces just a short stroll away. But this Ferrari owner wasn’t content with merely blocking access to the charger. No, they decided to up the ante by taking the plug and wedging it onto the alloy wheel of their mid-2000s Italian supercar.

This level of petty provocation is reminiscent of a Ford Ranger Raptor incident in New Zealand, where a similarly non-electrified vehicle owner tucked a charging plug onto the truck’s rear bed for laughs. Perhaps the Ferrari owner thought the wheel was the next best location. Another comedic option could’ve been to stick the plug into one of the quad exhaust pipes, though – radical idea incoming – simply leaving the charger for people who need it might’ve been the smartest move of all.
The photos were shared by an EV owner in a Facebook group called “E-Mobility in Greece“. The spotter came across the offending Ferrari late at night and had to do a double-take to process the audacity of the scene. The EV owner ended up using one of the several unoccupied regular parking spots, as his battery didn’t need charging at the time.

Ferrari itself is inching toward the electric revolution. The Italian company plans to unveil its first fully electric model next year and already offers plug-in hybrid supercars like the 296 GTB/GTS and the SF90 Stradale/Spider. These vehicles can legitimately use public chargers.
On the other hand, the pictured F430 runs exclusively on gasoline. Maranello’s entry-level supercar was introduced in 2004 as the successor of the 360 Modena, and was replaced by the all-new 458 Italia in 2009. Power for the F430 comes from a mid-mounted 4.3-liter V8 engine generating 483 hp (360 kW / 490 PS) and 465 Nm (343 lb-ft) of torque.
The broader issue of ICEing isn’t unique to Athens. It’s a global nuisance, but Greece appears to have cultivated its own vibrant subculture of offenders. The same Facebook group that shared the Ferrari incident even maintains a photo album dedicated to documenting ICEing violations. The album features over 100 examples of non-electrified vehicles of all shapes and sizes brazenly occupying parking spaces clearly marked for EVs and PHEVs.
