    Looking more and more like an SUVized Lusso

    If true, that would work for me.

    Add the 812C engine and perhaps some hybrid assist for low end grunt work (I hate low torque trucks) and then it’ll be worth what Ferrari will be asking for it

    A friend who was at the factory last week said, they are using an Alfa for a muel at the moment.

    8" / ~ 200 mm of ground clearance, skid plate, variable height capability, all paired to a Ferrari V12 and you got a winner IMO, ready to tackle unpaved county roads on the way to the country cabin! [emoji2]

    Maybe it's my imagination, but I'm hearing blow off valve wheeze/whistle in the last two passes - could this V12 have turbo's? Sounds like my 488 when I get off the gas....
    Or maybe it's another car (diesel?) in traffic with the mule....

    I assume Prosangue will be provided with plugin hybrid versions of both V6 and V12.

    V6 suits the pairing now better than Lusso's V8 as it gives the V12 a clear edge on performance. This is also the reason why I believe V8 is the first to drop off from Ferrari line up.

    given there are no electricity warnings on the mule a plug in V12 is unlikely, at max a mild hybrid

    given the 296 has 830hp, I am not sure that there is a clear edge on performance for a V12

    I would prefer that option to be able to entre into city centers, but unfortunately I got confirmation is just V12, no hybrid

    Can't say I hear it. Sounds very N/A and the gear changes sounds very snappy like in the other V12 cars.

    The short video on the link below proves that day time isn't enough to do the developing job making Ferrari also test the Purosangue during the night. The engine sound is also audible.

    This is a good video as this isn't a v12. I'm convinced we will see two versions. V12 first followed by a V6 hybrid.

    I agree. Naturally aspirated V12 at launch. Followed by hybrid TT V6. Followed ultimately by full battery electric with no combustion engine.

    The Purosangue will become the largest selling platform in Ferrari history.
