Name
The Ferrari Purosangue is named after the horse breed. In 2020, Ferrari attempted to trademark the 'Purosangue' moniker, however an organization, the Purosangue Foundation, blocked Ferrari from trademarking the name, and as a result the automaker filed a lawsuit against the organization for naming rights which went to court on March 5.[1][2]
Development
Development of a Ferrari SUV codenamed F175 began in 2017 and was hinted at by then-Ferrari CEO Sergio Marchionne,[3] and was later officially confirmed in September 2018.[4] The release date of the Purosangue has not been yet officially announced by Ferrari, however it will likely be revealed sometime in 2022 for the 2023 or 2024 model year.[5][6]
Spy shots of a Ferrari Purosangue test mule first appeared on the internet on October 22, 2018, with the prototype using a Ferrari GTC4Lusso.[7] The Ferrari Purosangue appeared in leaked images in February 2022. A month later, Ferrari revealed a partial image of the Purosangue.
Overview
The Purosangue will be based on the same platform as the Ferrari Roma coupe[8] and will use fastback styling.[6]
The Ferrari Purosangue will compete with other high-performance SUVs such as the Lamborghini Urus, Aston Martin DBX, and Bentley Bentayga.[8][9]
While the standard Purosangue will be powered by Ferrari's V12 engine, a hybrid V8 variant will follow the launch, and two electric models, codenamed F244 and F245, based on the Purosangue will launch between 2024 and 2026.[10] The SUV will use an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.[8]
