Good News For Purists: A Ferrari SUV Isn't Going To Happen
Porsche has made SUVs for years, Maserati just released its own crossover, while Aston Martin, Rolls Royce and Lamborghini are all following suit. So if you’ve been worried that Ferrari might be tempted to do the same, you can put your fears to rest, as the notion of an SUV from Maranello has been quashed by Fiat group CEO Sergio Marchionne.
Car magazine reports that at the Geneva motor show, Marchionne said that “We will not play with SUVs,” going on to say “it’s not in our DNA.”
So, for the foreseeable future at least, the most practical Ferrari you can buy will remain the new - and rather stunning - FF replacement: the GTC4 Lusso. And that’s fine by us.
What do you think? Could you cope with the idea of a Ferrari SUV, or is even the mere thought sacrilegious?

Lamborghini made a SUV years ago, I think even before Porsche did it and certainly before that trend began. The LM 002
Lamborghini was a TRACTOR manufacturer to start with…

The Ferrari hatchback is a special wet dream on mine (FF), but a Ferrari SUV would be a sacrilege….
Checked out shmee150’s vid on this car, I fell in love with it in about 2 seconds. Yes it’s a rich mans Ferrari, but it looks AWSOME
I’m still waiting for Koenigsegg’s 1000bhp SUV.
And a Land Rover supercar.
The SUV craze needs to end. Please.
With low gas prices in the US, more people are buying SUV’s and crossovers. So until gas prices go back up, SUV craze is here to stay unfortunately.
Aww. A Ferrari SUV would have been nice.
This is another GTC4 generation o
