Ferrari rules out the SUV rumour

In a recent interview, Ferrari general manager Amedeo Felisa has ruled out the rumours of Ferrari planning to build a SUV. He also denied once again the rumours of the future Dino.
Porsche Cayenne's success keeps maintaining the rumours, but Ferrari statement matches the decision made by Lamborghini which chose not to build a SUV. Launching a super SUV in the coming years would be a bad idea at a time when polluting emission regulation becomes stricter. Even Porsche might downsize the next-generation Cayenne, which will use the Audi Q5 underpinnings.
Amedeo Felisa acknowledged that Ferrari had tested a four-wheel drive transmission on the F430 but also added that the car maker dropped the idea because of the extra 176lbs generated by the system.
