Ferrari Purosangue: Is World Ready for 4-Door Ferrari?


Listen Later

Ferrari is showing well-heeled customers its soon-to-go-on-sale $400,000 SUV, and in this episode, we have to ask, “is Enzo Ferrari rolling over in his grave?” Ferrari unveiled its first four-door, and many are calling it a sport-utility vehicle. With nearly 700 horsepower from its V-12 engine, one thing everyone will call it is fast. According to Ferrari (the company not the deceased founder), the market is buzzing at the chance to lay their hands on the car. Will it diminish the Ferrari mystique? We’ll discuss that, too.
Also this week Toyota pulled the wraps off its racy GR Corolla, and we’ll give you all the details. The hot new sports sedan will offer 300 horsepower from its three-cylinder (yes you read that right) engine and offer smart manual transmission as well. Will it make Co-host Chris Teague give second thoughts to his recent purchase of a Volkswagen Golf GTI? He will fess up in this week’s show.
Our interview guest this week will offer the lowdown on the most important vehicle in the extensive Lexus stable. Carley Bly is a Lexus College expert on the all-new 2023 Lexus RX. At a recent driving event on the central coast of California Host Jack Nerad sat down with her for an in-depth look at the new RX. Among the topics we’ll cover is the exciting new performance-hybrid version of the crossover SUV.
In the road test segment, we will take a long look at two of the bestselling vehicles in America’s biggest segment — compact crossover utilities. Co-host Chris Teague was at the wheel of the 2022 Nissan Rogue all week while Host Jack Nerad spent extensive time in the new-for-2022 TRD Off Road version of the Toyota RAV4. Which of these worthy opponents comes out on top? We’ll tell you in this episode of America on the Road.
