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…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

And real life proof that money speaks louder than heritage.
we wont make an suv because an suv isnt a sports car….. well now u did it
Ferrari…I f#cking beg you, please make sure this SUV is MORE THAN just a rebadged, slightly faster, Maserati Levante!
A useless Ferrari like Porsche Suvs
Flashbacks to when the Porsche Cayenne was first announced and I was stuck for two weeks yelling “WHAT THE FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU”
Most likely an FF platform on high suspension, just like the Levante with the Ghibli
Was it not the very same man who only a few months ago proclaimed that Ferrari would never dilute their brand by meddling in such business as SUVs?
Well, I suppose they couldn’t hold off for too long. Gotta keep up with the market! Now I just have to wait for a Urus vs [Ferrari SUV name here] video…
Looks like a VW tbh
Lamborghini did it first, mate.
