The automotive world has been abuzz with anticipation for Ferrari’s foray into the SUV segment, a departure from the marque’s traditional focus on high-performance sports cars.
The Ferrari Purosangue, unveiled in India with great fanfare, marks the brand’s bold step into the realm of luxury SUVs. Priced at Rs 10.5 crore (ex-showroom), this groundbreaking model represents Ferrari’s response to evolving consumer demands for both versatility and uncompromising performance.
At the heart of the Ferrari Purosangue lies a meticulously crafted mid-engine 6.5-liter 65-degree V12 powerplant, engineered to deliver exhilarating performance on and off the road. With an awe-inspiring redline of 8,250rpm, the engine churns out a formidable 725 horsepower and 716 Nm of torque.
This potent combination propels the Purosangue from 0 to 100 km/h in a blistering 3.3 seconds, while achieving a remarkable top speed of 309 km/h. The SUV’s prowess extends beyond straight-line acceleration, with its dynamic capabilities ensuring an adrenaline-fueled driving experience.
Paired with an advanced 8-speed dual-clutch rear-mounted gearbox system, the Ferrari Purosangue seamlessly translates its formidable power into agile performance.
While predominantly rear-wheel-driven, the SUV intelligently distributes power to all four wheels, enhancing traction and stability across diverse driving conditions. The result is a harmonious fusion of power, precision, and responsiveness, characteristic of the Ferrari driving experience.
Amidst soaring anticipation, Ferrari has taken a strategic approach to manage demand for the Purosangue. Bookings for the SUV have been closed until 2026, underscoring its exclusivity and desirability among discerning automotive enthusiasts.
Leading the charge as the first Indian recipient of the Ferrari Purosangue is Boopesh Reddy, a prominent entrepreneur renowned for his passion for luxury automobiles.
With an illustrious collection that includes an array of iconic Ferrari models, Reddy’s acquisition of the Purosangue further solidifies his status as a revered figure in the automotive community.
As Ferrari embarks on this new chapter in its storied history, the Purosangue represents more than just a departure from tradition; it embodies the brand’s unwavering commitment to innovation, performance, and luxury.
With its arrival in the Indian market, the Ferrari Purosangue invites enthusiasts to embark on a journey of exploration, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the realm of luxury SUVs.
