A New Chapter for Ferrari: The Purosangue
The Ferrari Purosangue, which launched in 2023, marked a significant milestone for the iconic Italian brand. While Ferrari has produced four-seater models in the past, such as the Ferrari GTC4Lusso, the Purosangue is Ferrari’s first four-door four-seater in its 75-year history. This model was eagerly anticipated not only by Ferrari enthusiasts but by the automotive world at large. Expectations were high, and Ferrari did not disappoint.
The Purosangue combines Ferrari’s legendary performance with the practicality of a spacious, comfortable vehicle. Equipped with a powerful V12 engine, the Purosangue is capable of delivering a top speed of 310 km/h (193 mph) and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.3 seconds. These figures are impressive for any sports car, let alone a four-door model with ample interior space and comfort.
However, for those who seek even more distinction and performance from their Ferrari Purosangue, MANSORY offers the perfect solution with their complete vehicle conversion—the MANSORY Pugnator. This project brings together MANSORY’s expertise in design, aerodynamics, and performance tuning, resulting in a unique vehicle that stands out from the crowd.
Exterior Design: A Fusion of Art and Engineering
At the heart of the MANSORY Pugnator is its exterior design. The name “Pugnator,” derived from the Latin word for “competitor” or “contestant,” speaks to the vehicle’s aggressive and competitive nature. Every aspect of the Pugnator’s exterior has been meticulously crafted to enhance both its visual appeal and aerodynamic performance.
The first thing that catches the eye is the special paint finish in the color ‘Vermillion.’ This vibrant red hue is striking and immediately sets the Pugnator apart from any other Ferrari Purosangue on the road. But it’s not just the paint that grabs attention. MANSORY has incorporated full carbon fiber elements throughout the vehicle, including a completely redesigned bonnet made from through-colored forged carbon.
One of the most noticeable changes to the Pugnator is the enlarged air intakes in the front apron. Made entirely from carbon fiber, these redesigned intakes allow for better airflow to the radiators, improving cooling and optimizing the vehicle’s performance. Additionally, the increased downforce on the front axle ensures that the Pugnator remains stable even at high speeds, a crucial factor for any performance vehicle.
The side view of the Pugnator reveals more of MANSORY’s craftsmanship. The wheel arches have been extended, giving the vehicle a more muscular stance, while the carbon fiber sills add a touch of refinement. These body modifications are not just for show—they also serve to improve the vehicle’s aerodynamics and handling.
At the rear, MANSORY has introduced a two-part roof edge spoiler and a newly designed rear apron made entirely from full carbon fiber. These elements not only enhance the vehicle’s visual appeal but also improve its aerodynamics, reducing drag and increasing downforce for better performance.
Wheels and Tires: Designed for Performance
A vehicle as powerful as the MANSORY Pugnator requires wheels and tires that can handle its immense power and torque. To this end, MANSORY has fitted the Pugnator with newly designed, one-piece forged lightweight rims known as the ‘FC.5.’ These ultra-light rims are not only aesthetically pleasing but also contribute to the vehicle’s overall performance.
The front rims measure 9.5×22 inches, while the rear rims are larger at 11.5×23 inches. These sizes ensure that the Pugnator has a wide stance, providing better grip and handling during high-speed driving. Paired with high-performance tires, these rims enhance steering precision and overall driving dynamics, allowing the driver to push the Pugnator to its limits while maintaining control and comfort.
Performance: Power Meets Precision
Under the hood, the MANSORY Pugnator has undergone significant modifications to boost its already impressive performance. The Purosangue’s V12 engine, which produces 715 horsepower in its stock form, has been tuned to deliver a staggering 755 horsepower and 730 Nm of torque in the Pugnator. This power increase is achieved through modifications to the engine control unit and the addition of a new 4-flow sports exhaust system.
The exhaust system itself is a work of art, featuring a flap control system and two sports catalytic converters. The system ends with two tailpipes, positioned one above the other, which not only enhance the vehicle’s aggressive look but also improve its exhaust note. The result is a deeper, more resonant sound that perfectly complements the Pugnator’s performance capabilities.
With this power boost, the MANSORY Pugnator can accelerate even faster than the stock Purosangue, offering an exhilarating driving experience that is sure to satisfy even the most demanding enthusiasts. Whether on the open road or the racetrack, the Pugnator delivers a level of performance that few vehicles can match.
Interior: A Personalized Masterpiece
As with all MANSORY conversions, the interior of the Pugnator is fully customizable, allowing owners to tailor the cabin to their exact preferences. MANSORY offers a wide range of options for leather, colors, quilting patterns, and carbon fiber accents, ensuring that every Pugnator is as unique as its owner.
One of the standout features of the interior is the MANSORY carbon leather sports steering wheel, which includes an integrated shift light. This feature adds a motorsport-inspired touch to the cabin and ensures that the driver is always aware of the optimal shift points for maximum performance. The steering wheel is also ergonomically designed for comfort and control, making it a pleasure to use during spirited driving.
Other interior features include safety belts embroidered with the MANSORY logo, sports aluminum pedals, and bespoke floor mats. These small details may seem insignificant, but they contribute to the overall feeling of luxury and exclusivity that the Pugnator offers.
