Ferrari has unveiled the new Purosangue, the first four-door crossover with four seats from Maranello. The crossover is powered by a 533 kW (725 PS) naturally aspirated V12 engine.Ferrari Purosangue
Now Ferrari also has an SUV: The aerodynamically optimized, sculptural design of the Ferrari Purosangue quotes current models, but does without the classic Ferrari radiator grille. Instead, there are large air intakes in the lower area and air ducts in the area of the daytime running lights. The stocky side view is also characterized by the 22 and 23" forged wheels under the black wheel arches. At the rear, the twin lights also merge into two air vents.
The crossover is 4973 mm long, 2028 mm wide and 1589 mm high. The lower section of the chassis is made entirely of high-strength aluminum alloy. The body is made of aluminum, high-strength steel and carbon. The rear-hinged doors open electrically, as does the tailgate, and are designed to facilitate access to the rear.
Four individual seats in the Ferrari Purosangue
The dual cockpit is inspired by the SF90 Stradale. However, the Purosangue features two 10.2" displays for the driver and front passenger. The four individual seats are electrically adjustable and heated. The materials are largely sustainable: the headliner is made of recycled polyester, and the carpet is made of polyamide recycled from fishing nets. The Alcantara is also made of 68 % recycled polyester.
The transaxle model with front-mid engine provides a 49:51 % weight distribution. The carbon fiber roof lowers both weight and center of gravity. Unique in its class is the powertrain: no other luxury SUV can currently boast a twelve-cylinder. The naturally aspirated V12 engine, code-named F140IA, has a 65° angle between the cylinder banks. The cylinder heads come from the 812 Competizione. It operates with dry sump lubrication and high-pressure direct injection.
It produces 533 kW (725 PS) from a displacement of 6.5 l, with maximum torque of 716 Nm at 6250 rpm. The Purosangue accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.3 s and reaches 200 km/h after 10.6 s. The transmission is further developed. Shifting takes place with a further developed eight-speed Dual-clutch Transmission (DCT). Thanks to an actuating hydraulic system, the clutch filling times are now shorter, so that overall shifting times have been reduced. The gear ratios correspond to the SF90 Stradale and 296 GTB models.
Ferrari with hill descent control
The crossover is equipped with four-wheel steering and ABS “evo” with the six-way Chassis Dynamics Sensor (6w-CDS). The active suspension uses Multimatic's True Active Spool Valve (TASV) system. This combines a 48-V electric motor with a high-precision hydraulic damper with control valve in a fully integrated system. The Purosangue also has almost all the driver assistance systems currently on the market on board. In addition, for the first time in a Ferrari, there is Hill Descent Control (HDC). And the trunk, otherwise a rather insignificant feature of sports cars from Maranello, incidentally holds 473 l.
