Ferrari Purosangue, the company's first-ever SUV, previewed: Check design highlights
Italian automaker Ferrari is expected to unveil its Purosangue SUV in the international markets later this year. In the latest development, the brand has put out a teaser of the upcoming vehicle, highlighting important design elements. The picture suggests that it will have a sculpted hood, wide air scoops, split-style headlights, and a prominent front splitter, among other highlights.
Why does this story matter?
The Purosangue will debut as Ferrari's first SUV and should offer good looks, decent features, and excellent performance. A lot of buyers in the global markets should be interested in getting their hands on this model. When the car arrives on our shores, it will be as a completely built unit (CBU). The competition in the luxury SUV segment will be raised.
The car will sport star-spoke wheels and quad exhausts
The Ferrari Purosangue will have a sloping roofline, a long, muscular hood, a split headlamp setup inspired by the SF90, a front splitter, and large air vents. On the sides, it will be flanked by blacked-out B-pillars, ORVMs, and star-spoke alloy wheels. An integrated spoiler, bumper-mounted reflectors, LED taillights, and four exhaust tips will grace the rear end of the car.
Multiple engine options might be offered
Ferrari Purosangue might be fueled by a twin-turbo V8 engine that would generate around 700hp of power. A V6 hybrid powertrain or a V12 unit are also expected. Transmission duties will be taken care of by a DCT gearbox linked to an all-wheel-drive system.
The vehicle will get rear-view camera and flat-bottom steering wheel
The Ferrari Purosangue will have a luxurious cabin, featuring a flat-bottom multifunctional steering wheel, bucket seats, a center console that divides the driver and passenger areas, and auto climate control. It will house a digital instrument cluster and a touchscreen infotainment console. Multiple airbags, ABS, crash sensors, EBD, and a rear-view camera will ensure the passengers' safety.
Ferrari Purosangue: Pricing and availability
Ferrari will reveal the pricing and availability details of the Purosangue SUV in India at the time of its debut. However, the premium vehicle is likely to sport a price-tag of around Rs. 3 crore (ex-showroom).
