other · 2026-04-29

Ferrari has announced the Purosangue Handling Speciale, a more agile and aggressive variant of its controversial four-door, four-seater model that debuted in 2022. The Handling Speciale features suspension refinements that reduce body movements by 10%, revised shift strategies for quicker response times, and a dedicated wheel design with diamond-cut finish, matte-black exhaust tips, and a black Prancing Horse logo. The base Purosangue already delivers 715 hp from a 6.5-liter V-12, accelerates from 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds, and has a top speed over 193 mph. It finished third in Robb Report's 2026 Car of the Year contest. The new variant follows similar upgrades from competitors like Aston Martin's DBX S and Bentley's Bentayga Speed.
