    This Lusso was spotted yesterday at Ferrari's Maranello factory. That's what the spotter wrote " A new mulotipo for me! She is spotted many times but this is the first time that I saw her, The gtc4lusso with some modifications for the new upcoming SUV"

    If they use lights similar to the ones of the Roma I'm curious to see how they'll be integrate into this mule's rear.

    we really need a few more pics like the one from the other day with other angles and then i think we can close in alot more on the final look.

    That's quite a hood bulge. Quite interesting knowing the V12 fits without any issue below the Lusso's hood. Is the TTV6 taller? I wouldnt think so with the 120deg angle, although it does have 2 turbos mounted on top.
    Or maybe they are switching to wet sump?

    Huge gap between Wheels an Wheelarches.
    Unlike the Levante based mules.
    What could that mean?

    At the rear of this Purosangue mule is noticeable that the central top section of the trunk is lower than the sides forming an U shape. The F50 is the only Ferrari I can think of that has a U shape in the rear therefore I can't wait to see what's under the mule's black cover to confirm if the Pininfarina design has been or not one source of inspiration.

    That’s why I think the sleek Roma tail lights would fit in that raised area perfectly.

    This looks to be a Lusso Body Modified to fit over the Purosangue Classis

    These are not body-on-frame constructions. There is no chassis to fit a body over. If anything, it's a Lusso with revised suspension that lifts the car.

    Its a mule not a finished car covered up. so anything is possible i.e. modding a lusso so it has the same base layout as the new incoming SUV/FUV for testing. Pointless to do just revised susension on and out going model. Then there is all the major body mods, dont need a new engine cover etc for that.

    The Purosangue mule with the black cover spotted this week for the first time hasn't been seen again. One of the camouflaged mules with the Levante body was spotted yesterday driving around Maranello.

    Looks more like a Tesla SUV from the rear- less usable space behind the rear seats

    Because that is target market Ferrari is building this to disrupt. FF and Lusso didn’t take sales from Range Rover, Cullinan or Bentayga. That is the whole point here. Yes it will be sportier than those but must still do the same things.

    I had the naive hope that this could be like a Lusso with hydraulic suspension.

    I’ve honestly loved the FF from day one … more beautiful than Lusso on the outside, but Lusso wins on the interior. I wish they’d just continue along that line myself but apparently that’s not what buyers want.
