    Ferrari Purosangue SUV Due in 2022 With V6 and V12 Plug-in Hybrid Versions

    The Ferrari SUV known internally as ‘175’ and codenamed Purosangue is due in 2022 and is one of 15 new prancing horses to be announced from last year up until 2023.

    Autocar recently spoke with Ferrari’s chief technical officer Michael Leiters who revealed some technical details about their first-ever SUV.

    “I think we’ve found a concept and a package which is on one side a real SUV and will convince SUV customers to buy it, but on the other side there’s a huge differentiation of concept to existing SUVs,” said Leiters.

    The manufacturer remains tight-lipped on the specifics of the Purosangue but at this stage, we know that the SUV’s design has been signed off and the car will employ Ferrari’s scalable front-mid-engined architecture, one of two highly flexible structures that will underpin Ferrari’s future range.

    The SUV will likely adopt the plug-in hybrid technology derived from the brand new SF90 Stradale.

    The new supercar uses a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 with three electric motors, one at the rear between the engine and gearbox and two at the front to give all-wheel drive. A version of this powertrain is set to feature in the SUV but the V8 will be replaced with a new turbocharged V6 that is currently in development. A range-topping V12 version is also considered likely, as Ferrari remains committed to the development of V12 engines.

    When the Ferrari SUV does eventually arrive, we will be sure to see it go head to head with the likes of the Lamborghini Urus, Aston Martin DBX and the Bentley Bentayga.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye 😉 

It pulls properly hard, doesn’t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
