Ferrari has revealed its first SUV which also happens to be the automaker's first 4-door.
, and it features its transmission mounted at the rear to help deliver a near-ideal 49:51 weight distribution.
A mechanical all-wheel-drive system is also included. Unlike most AWD systems with a center differential, Ferrari's setup,, relies on a 2-speed transmission that mounts to the front of the engine and takes power directly from the crankshaft to the front wheels. Here, power is directed to the wheels that can use it best, in this case using a set of clutches that can vary torque between the front wheels.
The engine here is a newly developed 6.5-liter V-12. It generates a peak 715 hp and 528 lb-ft of torque, or enough for 0-62 mph acceleration in 3.3 seconds and a top speed of over 192 mph. Those numbers are impressive considering the Purosangue weighs a hefty 4,480 lb—dry. Helping to motivate the heavy horse is the engine's ability to generate 80% of the peak torque from just 2,100 rpm.
Inside, there are four individual seats, though the rear seats are still smaller than what you find in a typical SUV. Cargo space in the trunk is 16.7 cubic feet, though the rear seats fold flat in case more space is needed. The design of the dash is similar to what you find in the SF90 Stradale and features dual cowls, with the front passenger cowl featuring its 10.2-inch touchscreen display.
U.S. pricing will be announced closer to the local launch but in Ferrari's home market, prices will start at 390,000 euros . To help maintain exclusivity, Ferrari plans to cap production at around 3,000 units per year, or roughly 20% of the automaker's 15,000-unit total annual capacity. That means finding an example at list will likely be next to impossible.
