India welcomed its first Ferrari Purosangue luxury sports utility vehicle in Bengaluru. Recently, the very first Ferrari Purosangue was delivered to the famous garage of Boopesh Reddy in the city of Bengaluru. The SUV was revealed globally in 2022 as Ferrari’s first 4-door, 4-seater SUV, marking a new era for the auto giant. The car comes with a naturally aspirated V12 engine.

The Ferrari Purosangue features a sleek Nero Daytona black shade. It gets a carbon center cap, an Iroko interior, blacked-out wheels, and eye-catching red brake calipers. The SUV’s cabin comes in an Iroko interior, contrasting with the complete black exterior. The brake calipers are colored red. The cabin comes equipped with Alcantara leather and sports seats, incorporating two seats in the second row. The back seats can be accessed through the back-hinged doors that offer an opulent egress and ingress into the car.

The Italian marquee does not classify the new car as a sports utility vehicle. The company says that the new offering is a sports car that comes with a low-slung roof while maintaining key design elements such as the coupe roofline, short overhangs, and long bonnet. It gets a higher ground clearance of 180 mm, and it is slightly different from the company’s traditional 2-door Ferrari. The car comes with an extra set of doors.

In the SUV segment, the Ferrari Purosangue rivals the likes of the Lamborghini Urus Performante, Bentley Bentayga, Maserati Levante Trofeo, Aston Martin DBX, and more.

Under the bonnet, the Ferrari Purosangue features a thoroughbred Italian engine. The SUV draws power from the 6.5-litre V12 engine that churns out 715 bhp of power and a peak torque of 716 Nm. The motor is mated to a two-speed power transmission unit and an eight-speed DCT that sends power to all four wheels.

Ferrari’s most practical car can go up to 0-100 kmph in just 3.3 seconds, while in 10.6 seconds it can sprint from 0-200 kmph. It comes with a top speed of 310 kmph. The Purosangue features an active suspension, ceramic brakes, an electronic differential, 4-wheel steering, and torque vectoring at the front wheels.

The automaker has not shared the pricing details, but the Ferrari Purosangue is anticipated to come at a starting price of INR 6 crore (ex-showroom). Additionally, the Italian marquee is expected to bring more models to Indian shores in the future.
