    I personally prefer the Lusso to an SUV, when I want a four door SUV I want something luxurious and comfortable. Actually my wife’s DBX fulfilled that niche for half what the Ferrari will cost and the interior is fantastic. I would never have bought a Lambo SUV but the Aston is in the sweet spot between the Range Rover and the Lambo and is great. I am not sure if Ferrari will be practical and priced right, let’s hope.

    I don't dislike them but the risks of getting hit by a suicide door slamming into you by another car or hitting a pedestrian standing behind the door is still pretty high though. However, having a rear-hinged door does make it easier to exit and enter the vehicle because passengers can simply step forward and out of the car or turn to sit.

    With the recent spyshots it looks to be a pretty low SUV, and I just don't understand those at all. Not quite sure if Ferrari wanted to build a low 4 door car they'd simply make a 4 door Lusso. Now it looks like they're doing something inbetween... Not as low as Lusso, not as high as the Urus even. Very weird.

    I do hope I'm wrong. The render a few posts up looks really good.

    It's Lambo's Cayenne! So yes, like hot cakes.

    The Urus (Lambo SUV) is a great seller for Lambo, hard to get and they often sell at a premium. I have a 2020 Urus and absolutely love it. It has a few thousand miles and presently I can sell it at sticker - even back to the dealer.

    Where are you located?

    I'm in South Florida. I see them from time to time. There are also a couple of others in my neighborhood. Anyhow, I tuned mine to approx. 715hp. It's really fun to drive and it sounds like a beast. I never thought I would want to own a Lamborghini.

    Roughly speaking:

    Before URUS, Lamborghini moved about 4K units a year.

    After URUS, Lamborghini moves about 9K per year.

    Similar story at Rolls and Bentley.

    Aston is very new but supposedly looks like it will be similar.

    Game over.

    Urus (Urii?) are everywhere in Southern California. I see 2-3 a day. I suspect the FUV will be a big hit. People out here are more into the status associated luxury brand names, which is what Ferrari has become. FUV will be perfect in that regard, unfortunately.

    If Ferrari pulls off a beautiful design I can see this vehicle in a beautiful classy color without shields as being considered a “tasteful” vehicle for the tifosi when going out to dinner with friends.

    I think it's hard to pull off. I can't think of a single red SUV I thought looked good except the original X5 4.6is. Even then it wasn't some amazing thing to look at.

    Exactly my point about a beautiful classy color. I’d favor something like Titanio, Ingrid, azuro California, or Bianca Italia. If going with reds then a Rosso Maranello or like....but never RC.

    The Urus sounds better, hands down.

    We live with a more established and traditional supercar ownership crowd. I bet if you stopped off on your travels to your other home at a fancy shopping mall, you would see several URUSeses or is that Urui?

    What if Ferrari makes their PS a V12 and what if its awesome and they purposefully limit production because they don't want to have too many floating around... here's a wild though- it could be the most in demand model from Ferrari?

    I have the same skepticism as everyone else, but I am (trying) to keep an open mind and I am convinced they have supremely talented people in Maranello.
