  • Formula 1 Carlos Sainz extends his contract with Ferrari until 2024

Benedetto Vigna, CEO of Ferrari, has confirmed that the brand raised

prices last year for cars sold in the last quarter by 2%.

At the same time,

this year, a rise will be applied depending on the Ferrari model that is purchased.

"It is evident that we also suffer an impact of inflation in our costs due to the rise in aluminum and raw materials," Vigna said.

While the generalist brands take pains to say that they are not going to raise the prices of the cars, something that is irrepressible and false since the cars according to the INE have risen 5.3% until March, Ferrari has said it without any shame.

The CEO of Ferrari also confirmed that

the brand's first SUV, the Purosangue

that we will see this year, will not have a hybrid engine, but

will mount a 12-cylinder combustion engine, without turbo and atmospheric.

When the entire sector speculated on the possibility of the Purosangue mounting the plug-in hybrid V6 of the

Ferrari 296 GTB

, Vigna explained that "we have been testing different options but I think we have to celebrate the consanguinity of the V12's performance and I think it is the best option for this model and also what the market is asking for".

Now, the Purosangue will initially mount the V12 engine to make it clear that it is a full-fledged Ferrari. Later, the logical thing is to mount smaller V8 or V6 engines and introduce hybridization.

It is the way to lower emissions for more restrictive regions in this matter such as Europe.

Also, considering that Lamborghini has already said that it will electrify the Urus, its SUV and direct rival of the Purosangue, although the Urus mounts a smaller engine, a turbocharged V8.

PRICE

As for the price of the Purosangue, Vigna did not say so, but "it will be exclusive."

Thus, the price should exceed the 340,000 euros that the

812 Superfas

t costs with the Ferrari V12 engine.

On the other hand, Vigna confirmed that Ferrari delivered the last 40

Monza SP1 and SP2

in the last quarter and that it will not produce more units of this model.

"This could affect revenue because the

Daytona

will not be sold until 2023"

Speaking of the past quarter,

Ferrari's numbers are overwhelming.

Ferrari sold 3,251 cars, which represented an increase of 17%

compared to the first quarter of 2021, with revenues of 1,186 million euros, an Ebitda of 423 million, 12.5% ​​more and with an Ebitda margin of 35, 6%.

Net profit was 239 million, which represents an increase of 16.4%.
