The way Jethro is calm and reviewing while drifting fast through thick snow in a new car, the constant countersteering, I can't believe it, a tiny mistake and he'd spin out, mans got crazy skill
It's not really that hard to drift on ice, you control your angle with the throttle and adjust steering input accordingly. There is plenty of leeway. But it still takes a driver with skill to do.
We have watched Catchpole, We have watched Harry, now Jethro, all we need next is Mr Harris and our rounded review of the new Ferrari SUV will be complete. Lets throw Mr Sutcliffe in as well.....
EVO is the best- So many reviews on YT dropped together- most of them talking about the feature list and buttons and other BS- This is the review that actually tells a story of what this car feels- EVO you are a class apart!
It's the autmotive equivalent of rubbing your head and patting your stomach. Or was it the other way around ? He writes very well also, which is often missed.
@@zakelwe That’s very true, I’m an American and I used to always buy Evo and Car Magazine respectively for their Writing. Jethro’s Writing would take me from the dreary weather and congested traffic of London through the Channel Tunnel to the South of France to let a Ferrari 575M finally open up on some back roads.
I just watched all the Purosangue video drops, and you guys did it best! Fantastic video quality and editing, and the correct perspective from which to look at this car. Hats off to Jethro and EVO.
As a die hard Lambo fan, I must concede that I prefer this to the Urus. This is PURE Ferrari DNA. Full on V12 drivetrain. A standalone car, not a chassis sharing gathering of parts from a parent company. The design has grown on me (rather quickly!) after understanding all the aero. What was just black plastic (especially those wheel arches) in preliminary shots are now clever scoops and ducts that I "get". When I see a Urus (or similar), I'm impressed. But that's just by their sheer presence. With the Purosangué I'm full-on impressed!!!
I really liked knowing about -- tester's impression for driving that Ferrari in the snow. In CarMagazine, the tester didn't bother to do the same --- only granting his impressions of how the car drove, on a dry road. For giving driving impressions, of every different road surface on test; I rejoice. Now I feel I genuinely have some realistic impression of how that car drives like, thanks. Yes I agree it looks absolutely great - I also agree, this haptic controls - the way you describe 'em, I'd probably hate 'em too.
Ooohhh, so good to see Jethro back! I stopped buying EVO some time ago when Harry stepped down as a grand master and Henry and Jethro left. I'd love to see again Henry and Jethro on the videos and reviewing stuff in EVO. I only hope Dicki Meaden is still there.
@@k.r.99 jethro is the best Rory is the second Steven on evo and autoexpress is the third. for others especially chirs harris and that Hnery with a mess hair are not good enough
You are one of my fave reviewers, ever. To answer your question about an everyday Ferrari - in a perfect world they wouldn’t need to do this. But to manage the business for future growth so they can keep making the special cars they make, the competition has proven the recipe of SUV’s financing future growth. Can’t be a purist to the point of missing financial targets - quick look at history of Lotus, RR, Aston. That this car offers the delicacy of driving their roadcars are known for (no pounding of pavement to submission) is a high watermark achieved by this car. Forza Ferrari !
My sequence was Steve Sutcliff (Master in my view), Matt from Autocar (appreciate his technical side), Henry from Hagerty (such great content quality & energy), Harry as well you have to & now Jethro is in my feed! All very different in their approaches but all brilliant! Where is Chris Harris? How fortunate we are as Car People to get such cracking content for free…..
Completely agree with the key point that a Ferrari is special and should be for those Sunday blasts. For everyday use a cayenne or Range Rover makes much ore sense and this is before one considers the cost. This is the 4th review I’ve watched and the best yet.
Keep in mind that everyone buying this car will already have several Ferraris, it fits the bill perfectly to broaden their Ferrari driving experience. I think it is superb.
A Ferrari passenger car. Love it. Jethro is great. (So good that he can comment on steering response while driving over pack snow.😂.) His review communicates extremely well the car’s characteristics in very relevant terms.
Great review. The camera team made the Purosangue look surprisingly great. Unfortunately, there is one visual error at 2:25, check out the right border of the video.
Summed up so well by that last line. "If I never drove one again, I wouldn't really upset me. Not driving one of the mid engined cars or front engine V12 coupes, that would be a full on, Shakespearean tragedy."
Very clever of Ferrari, more of a more practical Lusso, with the wonderful sonorous NA V12, the clever active suspension, adaptive 4WD, transverse layout for F/R distribution, true four seater practicality and luggage space and all wrapped in a beautiful body that is not an SUV or a direct comparator with the Urus or anything else. The price is scary, but it’s sold out so Ferrari won’t care. I want one!
That was the best sum up. A Ferrari should be an event each time you get in it! Just the same, I’m 100% impressed with what they did to come up with this car, but I will keep my classic Ferraris that I know I can only enjoy for half of the year, but that’s how it has to be! Great review!
Honestly, I think it looks beautiful. Much better than I expected. In the end, though, I do understand why they made it, which is why I'm happy they made it. With it, they'll be able to afford to make better cars.
I’ve found the perfect buyer for this. The established 60 year old men who wants to treat himself with a sportscar but instead of buying a low Ferrari which is going to give him back problems he should buy this! Now he can enjoy an exotic screaming V12 without having to sacrifice anything
Amen to that. Jethro, Chris and ... Maybe Sutclif, Catchpole, Tiff and Carlos Lago (from the Glory days of MotorTrend). And a couple of others i'm missing.
Love what you do Jethro. To me, it’s a shame that Ferrari has transitioned from the four-seater models of old like the 456/612/FF/GTC4 to an SUV, but the Purosangue will sell like hot cakes. As long as it pays for the Le Mans Hypercar racing programme…
You came late to the party but you did the best video summarising it completly It helps that Jethro has a world of experience, not over awed and can peddle a car. I disagree with him though, like I disagree with him on soft tops cannot be as good asports cars as hard tops. He has the ultimate car he wishes for in his blood. Evo has some great talent, need to get Henry back into the fold, again. Evo testers are rather like ducks that go astray, best flock ever.
I think this road is a perfect test of the purosangue . Different kind of fun sliding around corners on slick roads like that. And Ferrari did a suv right.
Ferrari, with the Purosangue, has basically licked all the (supposed...) competition away to the point that there is actually none. Bravissimo Ferrari!
Hard not to appreciate absurdity of a 715 horsepower naturally aspirated V12 powered SUV in 2023. It shouldn’t exist, but I’m impressed that it does. They didn’t cut corners.
Interesting comment about the inherent qualities of the nat-asp V12 being, perhaps, out of step with the motive requirements of a 2.5 tonne four door, ie. needing a slug of low-down torque. Maybe it’s the wrong engine after all…
I say good on Ferrari for making it. It looks stunning. Wasn’t my view when I first saw it but god it’s a looker for the class. This is a brilliant car apart from the infotainment. As wether Ferrari should have built it. Why not. Does it spoil their heritage. Absolutely not. Bottom line is all the purists will portably hate it. But for the Ferrari owners that want to take their friends on a tour or drive in a Ferrari then this is the perfect vehicle by a mile
Did anyone notice the check engine light on the dash?? Looks like the farrier is going through a rough patch! They have reliability issues in everything they do.
ngl i have mixed feeling about it , doesnt give me the same excitement as the urus when it came out but I definitely prefer the purosangue than the so common dated urus now.
Let's be honest, most performance SUVs don't work because they are a shameless cashgrab that go like this "Take the VW Touareg -> dress it up as a Lambo/Bentley/Audi/Porsche -> Infinite money 🤑📈" but this is a bespoke Ferrari platform that comes from the GTC4 🧐, that difference between being a Touareg or a GTC4 at their core is what makes the Purosangue so, so special! ❤️
Superb review. A special Ferrari for a special day? Just think you've dropped the kids off for their swimming lessons and you've got an hour to kill in the Purosangue. You can have some fun whilst they have a swim. Isn't that just the right compromise where you both win?
If I had millions my life would be different only in my cars and where I stored them. I hated the idea of this concept but now would love to have one as a daily as long as there was a 250 anything and a 275 GTB 4 cam in my expansive imaginary garage.

Agree fully there
Wow....the quality and location shots of this video are next level! Felt like a short film....
One of the best reviews on the Purosangue - this video should have a lot more views. Jethro Bovingdon really knows how to drive.
seriously just powersliding around in the snow and calmly talking, Jethro wow lol
Oh man…..you should UA-cam Jethro Bovington’s 812 Superfast Review.

Not that interested in the car but Jethro comments and feedback are second to none ! Best review of the vehicle out there so far I believe.
You know what's sad? People didn't buy the GTC 4 Lusso but the Purosangue already has 2 year waiting list. Speaks a lot about people and 'taste'.
Couldn't agree with you any more
Completely agree. The SUV phase is absolute cancer...
In the SUV you watch the people not in SUV from above… so you feel superior to them… and this feel nice that’s all

Jethro has long-time been one of my favorites, and this video is exactly why! Thanks for delivering what we want 😊👍
Actually out of all the reviews I love that this one happened in snow! Great shots.
Watched every review of this and this was the most honest review so thank you.
what machine and a fantastic review, Ferrari have nailed it looks way better than the competition
Excellent review. Basically, the Purosangue is a GREAT SUV for most of us.
Absolutely incredible video! Job well done
I couldn’t explain how happy I am seeing Jethro in an Evo video! Did he left MotorTrend?
As always. Joy to watch and listen to your reviews.

I disagree. Cayenne and Range Rover are household appliances. Purosangue is for petrolheads.
Loved this review! So great how you just got to it and focussed on the driving experience! Thank you Jethro and Evo!
Good to see Jethro back! One of my top 5 automotive journalists/vloggers.
The best Purosangue video…..if money not a matter this is the best SUV ……
How many times did we replay that hairpin drift🤣
Great vid!
Keep in mind that everyone buying this car will already have several Ferraris, it fits the bill perfectly to broaden their Ferrari driving experience. I think it is superb.

Thanks Evo, Jethro and the production team, you deserve way more followers to me. Keep it up!

Always a pleasure watching Jethro. Come a long way since the black FF video ;)
When was this video taken? So much snow, I wish there is still plenty in Sella Ronda. Here is Swiss is ...
Love the honesty here
Great review. The camera team made the Purosangue look surprisingly great.
Unfortunately, there is one visual error at 2:25, check out the right border of the video.
I’m definitely not into SUVs but this feels and looks almost like the ultimate Hot hatch..perfect daily car lol

This reminds me of when Jethro crashed the FF on the launch
When Bugatti builds an SUV, no one will look at the Ferrari Prosango

It's the best-looking car in their current lineup. Fancy suspension will brake a lot. Still outstanding machine.
