The 2026 Ferrari Purosangue is a high-performance four-seat luxury vehicle that made the headlines after making its debut, being the first car produced by Ferrari that rides high. For first-world countries, that is not a big deal because the likes of the Daytona SP3, SF90 Stradale, or F8 Tributo can literally be driven anywhere. Here in Kenya, after price, ground clearance is the second most important factor for a Kenyan car buyer. And because there are so many Kenyans with deep pockets who would love to feel the aura and magnitude of driving a Ferrari, the Purosangue is the best choice for them.
This is not any other ordinary car on the road. The stats are crazy, the design is inspiring, the attention to detail is mind-blowing, and the sound of that engine is simply therapeutic. Some cars can bring a town to a standstill, and some cars can bring a whole city to a standstill; the Purosangue sits in the latter.

EXTERIOR
The 2026 Ferrari Purosangue is Ferrari’s first-ever four-door four-seater that is an epitome of world-class luxury, highly skilled craftsmanship & prowess, and, most importantly, detail. After making fine wine, Italians are very good when it comes to detail. On the front fascia, you will be forgiven for trying to spot a grille. A grille is for common cars. Ferrari uses a suspended lower dihedral structure that houses a sensor and a camera.
The V12 engine is mounted in a mid-point position, but the bonnet has been elongated for a dramatic appearance as slim LED headlights and daytime running lights inject premium contemporary. Ferrari’s “aerobridge” signature on the flanks channels air along the sides, reducing drag. Airflow optimization is achieved courtesy of the coupe silhouette.
The electronically operated rear-hinged doors, which are one of its signature features, open backwards up to 73 degrees for easy entry and exit. The alloy wheels are massive for a commanding presence. The rear is wide and muscular, and the aerodynamic diffuser together with the double twin-quad exhaust outlet lend it an aggressive look.
INTERIOR & TECHNOLOGY
The 2026 Ferrari Purosangue boasts a state-of-the-art interior that ranks among the best, if not the best. Ferrari is renowned for only producing cars that are 2-seaters. This time round, they added an extra two for your kids if you are a couple. And just to remind you, the seats are independently adjustable and feature a heating function. Just like how a driver sits in a lower position in a sports car, that has also been maintained in the Purosangue.
The cockpit is driver-centric. You have premium leather & trim, digital instrumentation, and extensive customization. There is no central touchscreen infotainment system. The driver has access to a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, while the front passenger has a dedicated 10.2-inch display.
The multi-functional steering wheel boasts touch-capacitive controls, turn signals, drive mode selector, and a start/stop button.

PERFORMANCE: How Does it Handle Kenyan Roads?
The 2026 Ferrari Purosangue powertrain has a serious output of 715 horsepower and 716NM of torque. Doing a cold start is a pure experience you cannot find anywhere else because the sound is amazing. With such figures, it only needs 3.3 seconds for a 0-100km/h sprint. Its most outstanding feature is the 48-volt active suspension, where each shock absorber independently uses its own electric motor paired with a hydraulic damper, meaning that when approaching tight corners, you will rarely experience any kind of body roll.
The engine of the Purosangue sits at the front, and the gearbox is positioned in the rear for equal weight distribution. This four-seat four-door has four-wheel steering, a sophisticated AWD, and an advanced ABS. Driving a very fast car like the Purosangue needs good brakes. The electronic dynamic system enhances its stopping power, averting any kind of mishap.
