The Purosangue Thread

I must say I'm not in love with any of the designs Mário so kindly shared with us. And that is important, because 90% of the time we first come into contact with a Ferrari, we're first and foremost visually stimulated. Only later at the turn of the key, your ears listen to the music.

Ferrari has a long way to go and I hope they get it right, once they're not leading the way in this field: the Bentayga is out there, the Levante and Stelvio QV have a very competitive cost-to-performance ratio and above all those mentioned before, the Urus is in my humble opinion, very, very interesting and stimulating. Ferrari must make something special, as the competition not only launched their products first, but also the competition has never been sharper nor broader as it is today.

I also hope Ferrari will keep production numbers under control (something I strongly suspect it won't happen, because demand is likely to be steady and strong, Ferrari is now a company listed in the stock market and the factory will steadily increase its production output), because I think this new SUV will have all the ingredients needed to depreciate big and fast otherwise.

Kind regards,

Nuno.

 

I think it will sound similar to V8 lusso ...

 

Bummer if it sounds like the 488.
Maybe we get NA with hybrid assist and return to good sound.

 

I think it will be that but higher off the ground and a bit more muscular looking. Like I said below I would buy one in a heartbeat, sorry I commend Lamborghini, first time I ever really considered their brand.

 

This is probably the only rendering I like so far. But of course it's really more like a sedan than a SUV.

 

Even if successor of 488 will have NA engine, it's hard to believe that they will put NA in SUV ...

 

I believe that, with most designs here, the roof line is low. An FUV (or SUV for that sake) likely will be higher but who knows?

 

For me, whenever I see FUV immediatly associate with (excuse the language) ****ing Ugly Vehicle.

Whatever Ferrari comes up with, it will sell, and I predict even the die hard fans will buy one (that is if they want the latest "Pista-Speciale-Scuderia" cavallino) just like it happens with the Lusso nowadays and with other models in the past.

Maybe it will attract a new croud, I don't know, but what I know for sure is that the new generation of buyers will move on if the product isn't competent in its field (wich is, in my opinion, why the Cayenne thrives on the ranks). IMHO, the competition is fierce and well established and the brand's image won't suffice to make it a best-seller. As with any brand that wants to grow substantially (as what seems to be the case, since they went public) its after sale service must conform accordingly being fast and effective. Are they now?

Just my 2 cents...

 

99% of all these renders give me a migraine

 

Me too, but I pretty like the gullwing sedan

 

Fortunately I think Ferrari's designers are far far far better than the renderings, fascinating as they are. I'm very curious to see what Ferrari comes up with.

 

I like this one

Was the Venice the only genuine Ferrari 4door??

SV

 

Very nice history Mario. The 456 Venice is pretty sharp!

 

Agreed. That's my ultimate Ferrari. A V12 with enough space to hold almost all the wife's crap on a road trip! It's also a lot more handsome than the other shooting brake designs IMO...T
