Ferrari Purosangue vs The Sahara | A V12 in the desert

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In 1995, CAR magazine drove a Ferrari 512M to the Sahara desert in what was one of the all-time greatest adventures. Now, nearly 30 years on, we’re retracing our steps in Ferrari’s new Purosangue. With a raised ride height and more than a whiff of SUV about it, this screaming four-door V12 should be the perfect accompaniment to an epic drive. CAR mag editor Ben Miller is your guide.

Don't forget to check out how the Ferrari Purosangue faired when we tested it in the snowy Alps and against the Aston Martin DBX707 & Bentley Bentayga!

    This is automotive journalism at its finest. Watching this video was truly an immersive experience. I love seeing Ferraris being driven and enjoyed like this on all kinds of roads and different environments. Taking a road trip in the amazing Purosangue to the Sahara desert, that's just absolutely fantastic. I'm so jealous.

    Great video of an iconic journey. Ferrari for better or worse seems to be a brand that transcends the automotive world somehow, certainly the greatest engine manufacturer ever. I couldn’t help but think throughout that while the journey was worthwhile, things have changed so much (both country and car being obvious examples here) that this must feel more like a history lesson than a recreation of the test of toughness of journeyer and machine that the original trip was. We are so much more globalised than ever before. It’s time to move on with the world, and the V12 block in this car is a rather fitting demonstration of that - a graceful farewell from Ferrari before hybrid powertrains take over their fleet.

    I'm afraid to say you're incorrect on this one. 1 presenter, 1 videographer, 1 photographer for the mag, 1 social media content creator and a technician on standby if the car needed seeing to, that's it. We actually did those miles over a week and it really was a long journey from one end of Morocco to the other, not to mention the driving in Europe.

    Back in the early 80s I worked in Saudi Arabia on the telecoms expansion project which meant I travelled over the entire Kingdom - in my Mazda 626🙄 Watching this video reminds me of the epic journeys I did including 'dune offroading' seeking out telecoms facilities using a map and a compass. So lucky to have grown up with physical experiences, rather than just watching someone elses virtual KZread experiences.... #goodolddays

This excludes the literal track that is designed just for the track and racing, it’s made in Kentucky peice by peice by General Motors and is under the same warranty as the rest of General Motors lineup who maintains the car on the track for the 300k cash price .
