FYI: With the debut of the Ferrari Purosangue in 2023, the iconic sports car brand introduces its first-ever four-door, four-seater vehicle, blending sporty performance with luxury comfort.
The Ferrari Purosangue: Ferrari’s First-Ever Four-Door
The Ferrari Purosangue’s market launch in 2023 marked a pivotal moment in the brand’s storied 75-year history. Known for its high-performance sports cars, Ferrari ventured into new territory with its first four-door, four-seater model. This daring move captivated enthusiasts and set high expectations for this luxury SUV.
Dynamic Design and Performance
The Purosangue didn’t just meet expectations; it surpassed them. Combining exceptional sporty performance with unparalleled comfort, Ferrari maintained its signature driving pleasure and high performance. This perfect harmony of elements also made it an ideal candidate for a total transformation by the Bavarian luxury tuning company, MANSORY.
MANSORY’s Transformative Touch: The Pugnator Unveiled
At the prestigious Monaco Yacht Show, MANSORY introduced the ‘MANSORY Pugnator,’ derived from the Latin term for competitor or contestant. This complete vehicle conversion showcased MANSORY’s exceptional technical prowess, creating a model that stands apart in both performance and aesthetics.
Striking Exterior
The launch vehicle featured a stunning ‘Vermillion’ paint finish, a luxurious metallic red that nods to Ferrari’s traditional color palette while asserting individuality. MANSORY integrated through-colored carbon parts in a ‘Forged’ design to enhance the vehicle’s distinct character.
Significant redesigns were made, particularly to the front. Enlarged air intakes and a front apron only made of carbon fiber optimize airflow to the radiators, enhancing downforce on the front axle. The hood, also crafted entirely from visible carbon fiber, complements the wheel arch vents and rear-front wings for a cohesive look.
Bodywork extensions on the wheel arches and carbon fiber side sills contribute to the vehicle’s aggressive stance. A newly designed two-part roof edge spoiler was added as a finishing touch.
Innovative Wheel Design
The debut of the one-piece, ultra-light forged ‘FC.5’ rims in sizes 9.5×22" (front) and 11.5×23" (rear) on the Pugnator sets new standards. These rims will soon be available for other high-performance MANSORY models, offering various dimensions and color designs.
High-Performance Tires and Power
The glossy black rims mounted with high-performance tires ensure increased steering precision, elevated performance, and maintained comfort. Engine modifications and a new 4-flow sports exhaust system boost the Pugnator’s output to 755 hp and 730 Nm of torque. The exhaust system features a flap control system, two sports catalytic converters, and a unique tailpipe configuration within the redesigned carbon fiber rear apron.
Interior Luxury and Customization
MANSORY’s expertise extends to the interior. Owners can select from a range of leather types, colors, quilting patterns, and carbon designs, allowing total customization.
For the launch vehicle, an ivory-colored leather interior was contrasted with red accents and classic visible carbon fiber components. Additional bespoke features include a MANSORY carbon leather sports steering wheel with integrated shift light, branded safety belts, sports aluminum pedals, and aesthetically pleasing floor mats.
Conclusion
The ‘MANSORY Pugnator’ is a complete vehicle conversion that showcases unbridled luxury, performance, and individuality. It offers an avenue for car enthusiasts to achieve their personal vision, with MANSORY’s specialists ensuring every detail is executed masterfully.
