Technical details have not been released, but Ferrari says it is “a car whose bloodline can be traced back through our 75-year history of innovation, evolution and uncompromising performance.”
The name Purosangue is the Italian way to say “Thoroughbred” in a nod to Ferrari’s prancing horse logo. Leaked images of the entire vehicle seen in a Ferrari facility that made their way around the internet in February show it to combine curvaceous lines with a relatively boxy hatchback shape, although it has not been confirmed that the silver vehicle is the final design.
The four-door is based on the same platform as the Ferrari Roma coupe. Possible powertrains include anything from a hybridized V6 to a V12 engine, but Ferrari hasn’t confirmed what’s under the hood just yet.
