Lot FM4431: 2025 Ferrari Purosangue

Great question! The Purosangue handles like a Ferrari through and through—even Ferrari themselves call it an “FUV” (Ferrari Utility Vehicle), not an SUV.

What makes it drive like a sports car rather than a typical high-rider comes down to how Ferrari engineered the chassis. Instead of the front-heavy layout you find in most SUVs, the Purosangue uses a mid-front mounted 6.5L V12 with the gearbox at the rear—a classic transaxle setup that delivers a near-perfect 49:51 weight distribution. That balance is exactly what Maranello’s engineers consider optimal for their front-mid-engined sports cars.

Add in the world’s first active suspension system, four-wheel steering borrowed from the GTC4Lusso’s 4RM-S system, and Ferrari’s Side Slip Control, and reviewers consistently describe the driving experience as “practicality skinned and stretched over Ferrari’s sporting framework”—transcending traditional SUV dynamics. Car and Driver specifically calls out its “sports car-like handling.”

The specific 2025 example you’re looking at here is especially well-specced for it too—with all that carbon fiber on the exterior and interior, plus the Scuderia shields, it’s clear this was ordered by someone who wanted that sports car feel.

Would you like to see how this compares to other performance SUVs on the market, or find similar Purosangues available?
