THIS is Why I'm BUYING a FERRARI PUROSANGUE! My First Drive

This is the new Ferrari Purosangue and everything you want to know about it! With a Purosangue on order myself, this is one I'm really excited about. It's a car that arrives to some very high expectations, so let's find out how it stacks up with a full tour and first drive!

The Purosangue is perhaps an SUV by category, but it really isn't as a car. In fact it slots into a unique market position with a transaxle mid-engine configuration that is rather one of a kind, and brings an NA V12 with an even more practical form factor than ever before from Maranello. My particular example for the day is finished in Rosso Portofino over Charcoal interior, alongside some Blu Corsa examples in the Italian Dolomites.

As the successor to the GTC4Lusso, and in fact having owned an FF, plus a pair of Lussos, it's a very natural progression within my garage, so this is not only an opportunity to understand more about the car and share that with you, but also for myself to discover a future arrival in my garage.

Visually, Purosangue is also quite unique in its form factor with the lifted platform yet sporting an extended bonnet to house the 6.5 litre V12 that produces 725hp. The lower sections including wheel arch surrounds separate the driving components from the bodywork, with an appearance furthering that of the recent introductions from Ferrari.

We're in a very familiar part of Italy, home to the Trento-Bondone hillclimb course and the ski resort of Vason, where I've been many times and in fact visited with my GTC4Lusso less than a year prior. This time around though we'll take a full look inside-out at the new car to find out all about it from the new dashboard displays, to the HVAC toggle, rear seats, luggage space, and of course crucially going for a drive to experience the car on the roads.

My conclusion is that we should not look at the Ferrari Purosangue as an SUV, but instead it needs to be considered as a Ferrari grand tourer, that has been made more practical. It sounds like an 812 Superfast, it drives like an improved GTC4Lusso, and it happens to bring rear doors and plenty of space with it. Needless to say, I'm really quite excited for mine to arrive!

Thanks for watching, Tim
