The Ferrari Purosangue goes down in the marque’s history as the very first four-door, four-seater model.
After 75 years of offering only sports cars, Ferrari has given in and unveiled the Purosangue, a four-door, four-seater SUV model.
At first glance at the Purosangue, we recognize the aesthetics of the Ferrari Roma and 296. The Italian SUV therefore does without a grille. This is replaced by a black lacquered rod housing the camera and the sensors dedicated to driving aids. This strip highlights the edge of the bow, which itself incorporates the daytime running lights. Right around them are air intakes, intended to restrict drag and cool the brakes respectively. The front light is two-stage, a particularly fashionable shape. Here, the low beam and high beam are discreetly housed on either side of the vast ventilation which occupies the shield. The aerodynamics have been finely decided to limit consumption and air noise while guaranteeing optimal cooling.
The Ferrari Purosangue is 4.97m long, 2.03m wide and 1.59m high. The antagonistic opening of the doors (with central pillar) has a theatrical side; a configuration that remains exceptional on a production car. Also with an almost invisible door handle. It reveals a case where four enveloping seats sit proudly. The interior of the Purosangue has four independent semi-bucket seats, all heated and electrically adjustable. Each level has a central console with control panel and storage compartments. The instrument cluster facing the driver, up to the steering wheel with rotary selector, is among the lineage of the latest productions from Maranello.
You can find driver assistance equipment including adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring and even fatigue detector. And also the first descent control in the history of the brand. Connectivity to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will also be possible, a baptism for Ferrari which replaces the integrated GPS. There is a new frame wrapping around the 10.2-inch screen for the front passenger. Ferrari also points out that 85% of the materials used among the finishes offered are of sustainable origin. In addition, the Purosangue inaugurates a new Alcantara made of 68% recycled polyester.
The bonnet of the Ferrari Purosangue houses the segment-exclusive V12. This 6.5 l block with direct injection, develops 725 hp at 7,750 rpm and up to 716 Nm of torque at 6,250 rpm. Singing up to 8,250 rpm, it is installed in the front central position and associated with a dual-clutch eight-speed gearbox positioned at the rear. This transmission sends the cavalry to the four driving and steering wheels. Despite its aluminum chassis, its bodywork combining aluminium, high-strength steel and carbon fiber, as well as its standard carbon roof (glass optional), the vehicle still weighs 2,033 kg dry with all the options. catalog relief. This does not prevent it from propelling itself to 100 km/h in 3.3 s, then to 200 km/h in 10.6 s with a top speed of 310 km/h.
The base price of the Purosangue was placed at €390,000. Unlike the Urus at Lamborghini, Ferrari does not want to sell this model more than the rest of the range. The manufacturer expects the Purosangue to be able to make up to 20% of its annual deliveries, no more.
