Monaco's streets are set to become even more glamorous as F1 sensation Charles Leclerc takes delivery of the all-new 2024 Ferrari Purosangue SUV. This addition comes hot on the heels of his recent acquisition of a $3 million Ferrari Daytona SP3, affirming Leclerc's taste for Ferrari’s engineering marvels. The Ferrari Purosangue, which marks the brand’s first foray into the SUV market, was picked up by Leclerc at his local dealership in Monte Carlo, underscoring his loyalty to the iconic Italian automaker.

The Purosangue is not just any SUV; it reflects Ferrari's deep-rooted heritage in performance and luxury. Finished in Argento Nurburgring with sleek Orbit Grey, Diamond-Cut forged wheels, and eye-catching Rosso Corsa brake calipers, Leclerc’s new ride is as stylish as it is powerful. The interior boasts a Nero leather and Alcantara design punctuated with Giallo contrast stitching, offering a striking yet refined cabin atmosphere. Equipped with a 6.5L naturally-aspirated V12 engine, the Purosangue delivers 715 horsepower and 528 ft-lbs of torque, enabling it to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in under 3.3 seconds, with a top speed of 193 mph.

As the third-ranked driver in the current F1 standings, Leclerc combines his high-octane professional life with personal passions, including the recent addition of a dachshund puppy named Leo to his family. While the racetrack remains his primary stage, the streets of Monte Carlo are sure to witness the impressive capabilities of his Purosangue during more leisurely drives. This latest acquisition not only adds to an already impressive collection that includes the likes of Ferrari 488 Pista and 812 Competizione A but also signifies a blend of utility and supercar pedigree fitting for a racing star’s lifestyle.
