The Purosangue Thread

I actually think that is extremely nice Mario. Well done!

 

The wheels arches are realllly wider than the Levante’s ones!

And the front hood looks longer too (maybe due to the angle of the photo).

 

Saw it several days in Maranello too. Doesn't look like a real SUV, which is good, but doesn't look like a Ferrari either... is there any real info, that the engine will be a V12? I find that hard to believe, keeping in mind the target, that Ferrari are aiming to with this... thing.

 

It has been exposed - not officially, was it? - that it will be proposed with a NA V12 (surely derived from the 812), and a hybrid V8TT (some earlier sources mentioned a hybrid V6TT though).

 

V12 yes v8 hybrid yes and v6 maybe

 

Just test mutes no final body there.

 

Exactly!

And MDEL’s analysis are very often the occasions to compare the mules and to see the potential evolution of the elements tested, by seeing the shapes modified on this Levante body.

 

maybe the adapter to the exhaust measurement device they have used on other cars recently?

 

Again... I still think that sounds like a (very nice) Italian V6 at around 35 second mark

 

This mule is probably fitted with the V6TT or V8TT, hence the sound.

The sound may not be the definitive one, due to the exhausts pipes that are not not totally finished and developed.

 

I’m pretty sure there are at least ten Purosangue mules driving around Maranello.

 

I can’t remember where in F-Chat I read that, but the test plates numbers are apparently linked to the driver and not to the car. I haven’t verified this info, but that could explain the same number on different cars, and also different numbers on the same car.

 

Very interesting analysis, thanks for the reminder! If that’s so « random », that indeed could explain that the same number has been seen in multiple cars, and that several numbers have been seen on the same car.

 

I think the final shape and dimensions are going to be similar to these mules, no? It seems unlikely that at the last minute they pop the running gear into a completely different body without extensive road testing that combination too.
So I think it will look more like the mule than a Lusso-style.
Perhaps @day355 can comment? I know he can’t reveal too much but perhaps he can say something like, “Yes, the general size and shape is similar to mule, or No they are masterfully fooling us all and it is very different from mule.”

So... @day355
Yes
or
No

 

Dimensions close to the Lusso.
He is not an Urus, rather reminds me
a kind of modern and classy
... ( to be continued )

 

Then “No” it is!
