Ferrari have announced the Purosangue. As mentioned elsewhere - I will just leave this here for now. https://uk.motor1.com/news/266765/proper-way-pronounce-ferrari-suv/Bentley Lambo RR Ferrari Aston have announced one so we just await that.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Another big flash high powered box...
Actually I like the look of the picture...but I wouldn't want one. Just too big.
We are trying to keep to small cars, the C43 is as big as we will ever need.

Now they are a publicly quoted company the focus has to be on profitability above all, and I guess that Porker have shown the potential of SUV with their tarted up VW.
I am still a bit surprised though. I would have thought that there was still a lot of potential growth in the sale of too fast to use sports cars into the third world.
As a marketing decision it has to be questionable. The name is the one thing they have going for themselves but the car market is littered with once famous racing makes now become vanilla mass low priced products. Lancia, Alfa, Jaguar, Vauxhall

I was watching Automundial a couple of nights ago.
They commented that SUV is the must have for car manufacturers as it is the growth/profit area. Saloons are disappearing and the crossover/SUV is the new hatchback. High performance to sit with their name, big price tag.
Kerching!
The companies also seem to be afraid NOT to have one in their range. If you have the £££££ then it is a status symbol/badge to show off
“Loadzamoney” comes to mind.

I guess it had to happen, it's what the rest of the world, excepting Morganland, wants.
Of course I am bound to say it looks quite good for a Tonka Toy but if I was forced screaming and spitting into a showroom to buy one of these hateful vehicles it would be a Jaguar. Quite a good looking box I feel.
In addition, if Seb doesn't buck his ideas up he could be driving one next year.
Here for a good time not a long time!!

Toyotosangue; except that would be twice as reliable at one fifth the cost.

How long before an Aston Martin SUV? They had an electric version on display at Geneva in 2015. Reminded me of the Citroen Pluriel
