Am I the only one who dislikes the Ferrari Purosangue? It seems like I must be. My dislike for the Purosangue isn’t rooted in Ferrari compromising its heritage in favor of the profitability of SUV sales—no, it’s purely about the styling. It’s terrible, even by SUV standards. Just because it has a Ferrari badge doesn’t make the Purosangue an instant hit.
That said, the Purosangue is undeniably a hit, with used examples selling for double the price due to limited availability and high demand, driven by the desire for a Ferrari SUV. Automotive styling house and tuner Mansory has gone all out with its latest wide-body makeover, naming this version the Mansory Pugnator.
The Pugnator rides on custom-forged alloy wheels, measuring 22 inches in the front and 23 inches in the rear. Mansory will offer these wheels in various colors and sizes for its other creations. While the exact impact on driving dynamics remains uncertain, performance tires are included as part of the package.
Under the hood, the Pugnator’s 6.5-liter V12 engine receives a subtle performance boost. Thanks to an ECU remap, a new exhaust system, and sports catalytic converters, output has increased from 715 to 745 horsepower. While this may seem like a modest upgrade, it adds an extra touch of exhilaration to the driving experience.
Inside, the cabin is adorned with ivory-colored leather, accented by red stitching and carbon fiber inserts. The seats, armrests, and door panels feature a new perforated pattern. Mansory has also added aluminum pedals, quilted floor mats, and, of course, plenty of Mansory badges. The Pugnator can be further customized to meet the owner’s specific preferences.
Although Mansory has not disclosed the price, the Pugnator is expected to be extremely expensive, reflecting the brand’s reputation for extravagance. The modified Ferrari Purosangue made its debut at the Monaco Yacht Show, where it is sure to attract attention from those seeking a truly unique and luxurious vehicle.
