The screaming popularity of CUVs and SUVs have caught the attention of top luxury automakers as of late. With Bentley, Rolls Royce and even Lamborghini making stellar entries, the luxury SUV market is a tough place to be today.

And now, Ferrari will make one too - the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! To differentiate itself form the pack, the CTO Michael Lieters told reporters that !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . But details on the SUV are still scarce.

This comes as a surprise after Sergio Marchionne, the previous head of FCA, vowed that Ferrari would never make an SUV.

This speaks to the ambition of Michael Manley, the new head of FCA. Since Marchionne conveniently stepped down due to a “health condition”, Manley has been making some changes. To take Ferrari in a bold new direction, it is rumored that Manley has summoned a demon army to do his bidding. Unverified reports claim that because of how fast Enzo Ferrari is turning in his grave, Manley has trapped his spirit in a what’s essentially a centrifuge.

That brings us to today’s big announcement. Effective immediately and retroactively , all new SUVs and Cross overs made by the FCA will now be called Poor osangues. FCA SUV and Cross over owners should also expect a recall notice for their cars, so that they can be correctly re-badged as Poorosangues.

This controversial decision was made to cement the exclusivity that the upcoming Ferrari Purosangue offers and differentiates it from all other SUVs, whether they’re competing with Ferrari or not.

For some reason my first thought on seeing that picture was “I wonder if those will fit on my Solara?”

what i dont understand is that Ferrari is still picky about its owners and chases exclusivity, yet now they’ll chase another niche with a SUV. Can you really keep the two exclusive?

The Fiat Viaggio is a Dart, not a Journey (which is called Fiat Freemont)

So Ferrari are going to make a mid engined AWD minivan that's ergonomically difficult to get in and out of (hence its claimed uniqueness) ?

When I first saw the name I thought it was a joke. After Touareg and Taycan, I now see that Ferrari must step up Their Name Game relative to VW-Lambo.

But, serious, WTF is a Purosangue ? Because in English it sounds like a lavatory cleaning product...

Im so glad Ferrari left FCA 2-3? years ago. But still, Ferrari is too late into the SUV game. Whatever comes out better be the fastest and sexiest SUV ever made or it will be a disaster

Ferrari’s SUV better be a GTC4 lifted with A/T Ko 2s, and skid plates.
