For Ferrari Purosangue, I believe everyone's curiosity about it will overwhelm the 296 GTB that had been introduced earlier. For most people, Purosangue seems to be a model that makes Ferrari "break its promise". This manufacturer that only produces top-notch super sports cars once said that it would not launch SUV models. However, this Ferrari's first four-door and four-seater model is high-performance and has versatility, which is quite similar to the type called "SUV". But in fact, this Purosangue is special enough, so it is difficult to define it in a conventional way.
Ferrari four-seater models are actually not uncommon. For example, in the 1980s, the 2+2 sports car with 4 seats was innovatively launched. Among modern sports cars, the four-seater GT sports cars FF and GTC4 Lucoso are familiar to domestic car fans.
Purosangue means "pure blood" in Italian . I believe there is no need to explain too much about its purpose. Ferrari emphasizes in his naming that this is still a purebred horse. A group of V12 predecessors were invited to the scene, among which there was a very rare limited edition model 99 GTO, which gave enough "selection". What I care more about is, what kind of car will the Purosangue be?
Appearance: to the extreme to aerodynamic design
The appearance of the Ferrari Purosangue is believed to be the most topical part. As Ferrari's first four-door and four-seater model, Purosangue also has the latest family design of Ferrari and uses a large number of carbon fiber material. It is more of the application of aerodynamic . All designs on the body have actual aerodynamic performance, not just for decoration. The real car also looks relatively low. Although the ground clearance has increased, the height is better controlled.
Purosangue does not have a real front grille, but adopts a "suspended" design, combined with the unique split headlight design, creating a round and seamless look. The LED daytime running light is divided into Ferrari's unique air bridge design, borrowing from the design on the F12 Berlinetta, flowing backwards to the suspension wing on the hood through the pipes in the front, and finally flowing to the rear fender to increase downforce.
, and the air intake below introduces more air into the cooling system. The air intake on the right side of the vehicle body is used to cool the active shock absorber, while the air intake on the left can keep the torque vector distribution electronic differential at the right temperature at all times. The main air intake in the middle serves the V12 high-speed naturally aspirated engine . The side design of
subverts the understanding of the current models. The unique double-open doors give the body the beauty of a GT sports car. The muscular lines not only meet the appearance needs, but also meet the aerodynamic needs. The rims are available in a variety of styles, and the piano black blade rims that show the vehicle are very beautiful, while the blue brake calipers are also perfect for matching with the white body.
. In order to deal with the turbulence caused by wheel rotation, each wheel is equipped with carbon fiber wind guide wheel arches. When driving at high speed, the airflow will enter from the air ducts on both sides of the front bumper , and pass through the air guide grooves on each wheel in turn, producing the effect of air wall .
tail design reflects the proper sense of power. The taillight design is integrated with the rear of the car and is divided by a horizontal cutting line to make the rear of the car more layered, and the airflow in front will be discharged through the air guide hood under the taillight.
Ferrari Purosangue adopts a virtual rear wiper design, and is equipped with a vortex generator at the bottom of the roof spoiler. In cooperation with special rear window glass, it can provide a more uniform cleaning effect. Therefore, Purosangue does not have the conventional wiper .
interior: dual cockpit brings a stronger sense of inclusion. The rear seat riding space is surprising
Ferrari Purosangue adopts the dual cockpit design concept. Its design inspiration is from the SF90 Stradale supercar. The symmetrical design allows front passengers to have a stronger sense of inclusion. In addition to the driver's seat, the co-pilot is also equipped with a 10.25-inch display, which can provide multimedia and vehicle-related information to feel the driver's happiness. The details of
also reflect a tribute to past models. The gear lever design has a shape similar to the past H-shaped metal barrier. Combined with the aluminum alloy and carbon fiber material on both sides, it is easy to remind people of the classic manual transmission models of the past.
The most special thing is that it is equipped with four independent seats. First of all, the design of the double-open door makes entering and exit more convenient, and in detail, it has more luxurious elements. In addition to electric suction, it can also be automatically closed in the car through buttons, which is more elegant whether it is entering and exiting.
and the performance of the rear space is also the strongest among Ferrari models. If the past 2+2 models can be used for emergency response and FF and other four-seater models can be used to sit, then the rear space of this Purosangue can be described as "luxury". The author's 185cm tall can comfortably sit in the back row of a Ferrari, which is an experience I have never had in the past.
Purosangue has "exaggerated" trunk space. It is hard to imagine how Ferrari engineers racked their brains to use the space and created enough luggage space for four people in the compact car body, which is no less than its performance.
Power system: The V12 naturally aspirated engine with excellent performance and sound waves
Ferrari Purosangue is also uncompromising in performance. It is equipped with a V12 naturally aspirated engine code-named F140IA, with an exhaust volume of 6.5L, and a maximum power of 725 horsepower at 7750rpm and a peak torque of 716N·m. It is fully released at 6250rpm, but it can obtain 80% of the maximum torque of at 2100rpm. The 8-speed dual-clutch transmission has also been optimized. In addition to reducing the installation height of 15mm, the clutch performance has also been improved by 35%, can withstand dynamic torque of 1200N·m and have higher transmission efficiency.
In order to achieve the expected performance, the intake and exhaust of this V12 engine and the timing system have also been adjusted, and the cylinder head design originated from the limited edition supercar 812 Competizion is used, and it is equipped with an dry oil pan . In order to create a unique sound wave belonging to Ferrari, the exhaust manifold has been adjusted and a new air collector is adopted. It is combined with a new muffler, allowing the driver to enjoy the sound wave brought by the 8250rpm red line speed.
Chassis: Active Suspension Technology innovation
chassis, in order to achieve better front and rear counterweights, the engine adopts a front center layout, and the gearbox is placed in the rear. The layout of the four-wheel drive system is also the same as the past four-seater models. The PTU of the four-wheel drive system is located in front of the engine, achieving a front and rear counterweight ratio of 49:51. The four-wheel steering system from the 812 Competizion can increase the flexibility of the model. The application of
active suspension allows Purosangue to have the dynamic performance of a supercar while having higher ground clearance. The core of this set of active suspension comes from four 48V actuators. The independent motor has faster and more efficient adjustments, and the millisecond adjustment time allows Purosangue to better adapt to the road conditions ahead. Combined with ABS ‘EVO’2.0 from 296 GTB, the adhesion of the vehicle under different road conditions is optimized.
Summary
Ferrari Purosangue car, as its name suggests, is still a "pure blood" Ferrari, and it also has the attributes that each Ferrari should have - unique.You won't find similar products on the market, Purosangue has opened a brand new category of models, and Ferrari has not violated its original intention. This is not an SUV, and even after the experience, it cannot be classified in a suitable category. It has the performance of a supercar and can meet daily practicality. In some scenes where supercars are limited in use, you can still enjoy the fun brought by Ferrari. Perhaps only Purosangue can achieve the supercars that can carry four passengers to enjoy their travel. On the other hand, under the current trend of electrification, Ferrari still chooses to launch a model with a pure fuel V12 engine. Only brands like Ferrari can do this courage to go against the trend. If you have the opportunity to see this car, please don’t call it an SUV. Perhaps the “all-terrain high-performance GT” would be more appropriate?
