Ferrari: Purosangue - SUV and sports car in one 🎥

The Ferrari Purosangue combines SUV design with the dynamics of a sports car. With all-wheel drive and a V12 engine, it focuses on power and style.

The first four-door car

Ferrari is breaking new ground with the Purosangue: for the first time in the company's 75-year history, Ferrari is launching a vehicle with four doors and four seats. The Purosangue, which means "thoroughbred" in Italian, offers a combination of performance, comfort and sports car DNA that is unique to Ferrari.

SUV meets sports car

The Ferrari Purosangue is causing quite a stir: It combines the elegance of a sports car with the functionality of an SUV. Ferrari is breaking new ground and presenting a model that impresses on all levels. From design and technology to driving dynamics, the Purosangue remains true to its sports car DNA while at the same time fulfilling the requirements of a modern SUV.

Ferrari Purosangue

A heart from Maranello

The 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine in the Ferrari Purosangue is a technical masterpiece. With 725 hp and 716 Nm of torque, it delivers impressive performance. The V12 catapults the SUV from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. The top speed is over 310 km/h. These impressive figures are supported by a precise 8-speed dual-clutch gearbox and perfectly tuned chassis technology. The result is a driving experience that is both sporty and comfortable. The Purosangue combines the agility of a sports car with the versatility of an SUV, setting new standards in its segment.

The cylinder heads, borrowed from the Ferrari 812 Competizione, have been specially redesigned for the Purosangue to ensure higher torque at low engine speeds. A dry sump lubrication system, high-pressure direct injection and variable valve timing optimize performance and efficiency. The positioning of the engine behind the front axle and the gearbox on the rear axle ensures almost perfect weight distribution.

A highlight of this drive is undoubtedly the iconic sound of the V12. When accelerating, an unforgettable acoustic experience unfolds. The powerful, rich sound of the engine permeates the surroundings, accompanied by a deep rumble that swells to a distinctive roar at higher engine speeds. But the real goosebump moment comes when downshifting. With each precise shift of the dual-clutch gearbox, a sharp, crisp intermediate throttle is heard, further emphasizing the characteristic Ferrari sound. This combination of mechanical precision and unmistakable sound makes every drive in the Purosangue an emotional experience in which technical excellence and pure driving pleasure come together in an impressive way. The specially developed intake and exhaust system not only contributes to the performance, but also to the unique sound spectrum that makes the Ferrari V12 so special.

Comfort and space

Although the focus is on sportiness, the Purosangue also impresses in everyday use. With four individual seats, a spacious trunk and a raised seating position, it offers significantly more comfort than classic Ferrari models. The high-quality interior also ensures a luxurious ambience that delights driver and passenger alike.

Driving experience at the highest level

The adaptive suspension of the Purosangue adapts perfectly to the road conditions. Whether on the highway or off-road, the car always conveys a safe and dynamic driving experience. The steering responds directly and precisely, while the suspension masters the balancing act between comfort and performance. For sporty drivers, there are also numerous setting options to further individualize the driving experience.

Ferrari Purosangue

A Ferrari for every occasion

The Purosangue is not only designed for sporty driving, but is also suitable for everyday use. It shows that it is possible to combine Ferrari DNA with the requirements of a modern SUV. Whether on the racetrack or on the way to a weekend getaway - this Ferrari always cuts a fine figure. Its striking design and technical highlights make it an exceptional vehicle that stands out from the crowd.

Sustainability and a vision for the future

Ferrari is also breaking new ground in terms of sustainability with the Purosangue. While the V12 engine is impressive in terms of performance, Ferrari is working on further solutions to make future models more environmentally friendly. The combination of high performance and sustainability will play an important role in future models. AutoSprintCH drove the Purosangue in the color Grigio Titanio. Prices for the Ferrari Purosangue can vary depending on equipment and configuration, but as a guide, the starting price in Switzerland is around CHF 400,000 to CHF 450,000.
