Prepare Yourselves: A Ferrari SUV Is Definitely Happening
The number of performance car manufacturers without an sports utility vehicle in the line-up is set to shrink further. That’s right, it looks like the long-anticipated Ferrari SUV is actually happening.
“We’re dead serious about this [the SUV],” CEO Sergio Marchionne told Bloomberg on Monday. “We need to learn how to master this whole new relationship between exclusivity and scarcity of product,” he added.
How long will it take to decide on the “scarcity”? We’re looking at around 30 months, so you have over two years to get used to the idea. Marchionne has hinted at the prospect of a high-riding, “utilitarian” Ferrari before, but this is the firmest indication yet from the man that such a thing actually going ahead.
It’ll rival the Lamborghini Urus, another SUV spawned from a supercar-producing firm that’ll soon be here. But don’t panic, at least McLaren is still insisting it’ll stick to supercars and supercars only…

Can deny, personally.
Remember the LM002? I feel like it’s a phase that happens every once in a while in Ferrari’s life time, like periods.
The LM002 is a Lambo dude.
I don’t see why people get so mad at this, a money spinner like this gives Maranello more money to put into the Ferrari models you the purists and petrol/gear heads care about!
But… Marchionne said we’d have to shoot him first…

So one designer woke up one day and said, you know wha’, Ferrari needs an SUV model.. Ferrari needs to come down to an everyday level of usability.. remember when every baked could have one? To carry bread around? Wha? No?
