What to Know Before You Buy a Ferrari Purosangue

Ferrari's first four-door carries a 715-hp naturally aspirated V12 and a young used market. A practical guide to documentation, inspection, and spec before you commit.

The Ferrari Purosangue is unlike anything Maranello has sold before — its first four-door, four-seat production car^[1] — and that novelty is exactly why a buyer should slow down and do the homework. There is no decades-old ownership playbook here. The car has been in production since 2022,^[1] so the used market is young and every example should be treated as a known-history car or passed over.

What you are actually buying

Ferrari calls it an FUV — a Ferrari Utility Vehicle — rather than an SUV, and it competes with the Lamborghini Urus and Aston Martin DBX.^[1] Under the hood sits a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter F140 V12 producing 715 hp and 528 lb-ft of torque, mounted front mid-engine and driving all four wheels through an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.^[1] Ferrari quotes 0–62 mph in 3.3 seconds and a top speed above 193 mph.^[1] The 5-door body^[1] features distinctive rear-hinged “welcome” doors,^[1] and the design earned a Compasso d’Oro award in 2024.^[1]

The buyer’s checklist

• Documentation first. Insist on the complete service file from an authorized Ferrari dealer. On a car this new, gaps are a choice the seller made.
• Pre-purchase inspection. Commission a PPI from a Ferrari specialist, not a general shop. The V12, dual-clutch gearbox, and all-wheel-drive system^[1] all deserve a trained eye.
• Check the doors and electronics. The rear-hinged doors^[1] are a signature feature; verify their operation carefully, along with every electronic system.
• Specification matters. Ferraris are heavily optioned cars, and configuration drives desirability. Compare the build sheet against what the market rewards.
• Usage pattern. This is a four-seat Ferrari^[1] that will have been used as family transport. Inspect the interior for wear accordingly.

Reading the market

Because the Purosangue is Ferrari’s sole entry in this class,^[1] demand has little in-house competition. That supports values but also means asking prices vary widely with spec and history.
