Ferrari released a new intro video for Purosangue – V12 . engine Lamborghini Urus The competitor will be the company’s first competitor SUV when it appeared on the street. The short clip – which includes a glimpse of the car’s front end and a sample of its twelve-cylinder soundtrack – indicates that the Purosangue will be fully unveiled on September 13.
Ferrari has chosen its famous V12 engine for its upcoming SUV to capture the excitement of the sound and performance of its purebred line. sports car. This decision means that Purosangue will stand apart from sporty SUV rivals such as Aston Martin DBX, Lamborghini Urus and Porsche Cayenne Turbo GTAll use turbocharged V8 engines.
Footage from an earlier introductory video shows that the admission average will be redesigned compared to 812 super fast coupe and of course, the exhaust system will be custom designed. If the SUV’s engine were the same as the 812, it would be a 6.5-liter, producing close to 800 hp and capable of revving close to 9,000 rpm.
We’ve already seen leaked images of the car’s design, confirmed to be accurate through an official teaser of the SUV. The leaks show the front and back of the car at the Maranello factory, revealing key design details and influences from other Ferrari models.
The headlights look like an even more dramatic interpretation of the above feature units Roma GT, with an incision extending out from the nose and into the light clusters. The bonnet looks like a clamshell and the slit grille is set low into the front bumper.
A Ferrari fender sits on the front wings (possibly optional) and the bottom of the doors and sills are heavily sculpted, curving towards the center of the car to hide some of the machine’s visual mass.
As we’ve seen with the spy shots, the rear of the car has a rather modest quad exhaust and diffuser. There are air vents behind the rear wheels and taillights similar to those on the recently launched car 296 GTB.
Following the reveal later this month, deliveries of the Purosangue are expected to begin in 2023. The company’s marketers describe the Purosangue as a “Ferrari Utility Vehicle”. Our recent spy shots (showing the car in its production body) suggest it will be anything but utilitarian, given it’s relatively low ride height and body shape. short.
While the DBX and Urus have a tall and upright stance with relatively short overhangs, the Purosangue has a long bonnet, sloping windshield, and rather long wheelbase.
The rear overhang also extends, while the rear wheel is slightly larger in diameter than the front one – like a supercar. However, that may just be a mistake of the way the prototype was set up.
Because it goes so low, we expect Ferrari to equip the Purosangue with air suspension that can adjust the ride height. A four-hole exhaust system is also visible on this prototype, along with a set of large cross-drilled brake discs and large brake calipers.
Our exclusive image shows what the finished Purosangue might look like once the camouflage is removed. We expect it to draw on the Roma GT for some design inspiration, sharing the same lines on the bonnet, grille shape and flared rear end.
While the Purosangue’s styling isn’t meant to be particularly utilitarian – at least in the SUV world – it will be the most spacious model in Ferrari’s lineup. There is a four-door, four-seat layout and a hatchback tailgate.
In essence, then, SUVs will become an indirect replacement for GTC4 Lusso The 4-seater coupe was withdrawn from the price list by Ferrari at the end of 2020.
New Ferrari Purosangue SUV 2022: platform and engine
Ferrari has confirmed that the Purosangue will be based on the same platform as the Roma GT, so the car’s 3.9-liter V8 could also join the lineup.
In the big touring coupe, the unit produces 612hp and 760Nm of torque, and with more space available in the Purosangue’s body, Ferrari can move away from the rear-wheel drive layout of Roma and switched to four-wheel-drive. The SF90 StradaleMore powerful V8 engine mixture setting is also possible on the card
Former Chief Technology Officer Michael Leiters told us: “In general, we will have two families of architectures – front-engine and rear-engine families.
“Modularity is there and, especially on the front-engine architecture, we have to foresee many other models. We have 2+2, we have 4+, we are thinking about Purosangue, etc.”
Leiters also mentions that the SUV’s platform is likely to accept V6 engines, as well as V8s and V12s, possibly the 296 GTB’s electric motors. In the mid-engine supercar, this makes 819 hp.
But while the V6 and V8 are the most likely candidates for electric assistance, the internal combustion engine will be the sole propulsion vehicle in the V12 model. Combining such a heavy motor with an even heavier electric motor and battery pack was not favored by the company’s engineers.
Ferrari’s Chief Marketing Officer, Enrico Galliera, told Auto Express: “Honestly, electrification The V12 is meant to make – most likely – a big and heavy vehicle. So, ideally, electrification should be combined with smaller engines.
He added: “The philosophy is to try to be ready with different technologies to use them with the necessary evolution. “That’s why we have a variety of engines: V12, V8 and in the future V6.”
