If you cast your minds back a few years, you’ll remember that the web
was ablaze with speculation that some of the world’s top supercar
manufacturers were developing high-end luxury four-door’s to compete
with the Porsche Panamera which was still in its infancy during that
time.
Lamborghini went as far as to actually release their Estoque Concept
and rumours circled that Ferrari wasn’t too far behind in developing a
similar car. However, Ferrari’s CEO and President Luca Di Montezemolo
has confirmed that no such car is being developed or will be developed
in the near future.
Di Montezemolo bluntly stated that “A Ferrari can’t have more than
two doors”, ultimately ending all rumors that a four-door Ferrari FF and
Ferrari SUV will ever be created. He also went on to state that
developing a four-door as a new entry-level model for Ferrari would be
unethical as “a cheap entry-level Ferrari simply wouldn’t be a Ferrari,
period”.
After all, that’s precisely why Maserati exists; to provide consumers
a relative cheap entrance into the supercar realm without costing
anywhere near as much as a Ferrari.
However, it’s worth pointing out that Di Montezemolo’s aforementioned
statements are just his beliefs for the Italian company. He will
inevitably hand over the reins of Ferrari in the future, and whoever
takes charge may disagree with the current CEO’s views.
