A digital artist has created an idealized design for the Italian marque’s Ferrari off-road SUV.
Ferrari is developing its first SUV, and some believe that Ferrari will offer a more powerful car than the Lamborghini Urus. For a while, there has been a lot of speculation about a new Ferrari project that includes the production of a Ferrari SUV and a crossover,
Ferrari has tried to keep the project and design under wraps, but there is no way to hide a controversial project like this in an era when information is spreading like wildfire through social media channels.
Finally, Ferrari CEO Sergio Marchionne revealed the entry of the luxury sports car company Ferrari to the SUV market, and Marchionne said: “Ferrari is serious about the car and things are becoming clear.”
On the other hand, Ferrari plans to launch its four-wheel drive cars under a category called “FUV” instead of “SUV” as an advertising method. Ferrari believes that its entry into the SUV market will help the company’s sales growth .
Ferrari had called its imagined car Purosangue, but it announced leaving the name to the imagination of artists around the world, to present their ideas for what the new Ferrari could be, and Ferrari drew many designs , most notably the design of Diane Christo, from Macedonia, who called me Its design is called Ferrari “Simum”.
It seems clear that Ferrari’s decision to launch an SUV is due to the high popularity of this category, and why not, because SUVs are the latest cars owned by the elite in the world, and were preceded by Lamborghini, Porsche, Bentley and Rolls-Royce in the production of this category, and finally Ferrari decided to enter competition arena.
Just a mid-size SUV?
With all the speculation and talk, not many know what Ferrari could be, and some even went that Ferrari might have been mixing up the idea of venturing into the market with an SUV or a crossover. The whole idea was that the Purosangue might end up being a supercar with a V8 engine, potentially powered by a pair of turbochargers and some form of plug-in hybrid, allowing four passengers to navigate slightly rough terrain.
According to the autoblog, the Ferrari SUV will be based on the “GTC4 Lusso” wheelbase, with all-wheel drive, and there will be a hybrid powertrain option.
Of course, nothing else from Ferrari will be needed, but recent spy photos have indicated Ferrari is serious about this project which may be delayed by 30 months before it enters production lines. It looks like an oversized hatchback and less like what we’d expect to see in an SUV.
Who would think of venturing into an off-road Ferrari?
Although Ferrari makes a lot of high-end SUVs that we see on the road rather than off-road, it is surprising that Ferrari is considering entering the SUV market, and if it is considering competing with the Lamborghini Urus, we have never seen the Lamborghini Urus jump From sand dunes to rocky bumps and bumpy roads, people still seem to love the bold look of the bigger and taller car. And Ferrari may have forgotten the fact that off-road vehicles are not elegant and their design lacks the cruising appeal for which Ferrari is so famous.
The shape of the final product of the upcoming Ferrari is still a mystery
Although it is entirely possible that all designs depicting adaptive supercars are wrong, the actual car features a more symmetrical design with a lower ground clearance and bears the same brand characteristics. Some even question Ferrari’s ability to compete in SUVs.
Some believe that their success rate may be low, but this does not prevent the curious and the imaginative from presenting their idea of what they think is the perfect combination of the two concepts to come up with a mixture between them, and through the spy shots of the Purosangue project, many ideas were presented that were much worse than the concept put forward by the Macedonian artist Dian Hristo. Which looks really good, will we ever see this daring Ferrari SUV?
