When we shake hands with Ferrari Purosangue last September, the Italian carmaker hinted that its newest and strangest toy would be fitted with “a starting price of 390,000 euros, or about $400,000.” Ferrari landed with that one, speak car and driver Purosangue will cost $393,350 before a $5,000 destination charge, a subtotal of $398,350. We write “subtotal” not because there are unavoidable taxes and fees added, but because the price eliminates the potential gas consumption tax. America I have to go to school every day has not yet concluded its decision on energy savingThe U.S. government has also not reached a conclusion on whether the four-seater is a station wagon or an SUV, both of which affect whether the tax is applied.
What is taxed and what is not is not a matter of consistency that we can follow. The Aston MartinDBX, Bentley BentaygaAnd lamborghini urus no tax on gasoline consumption, Rolls-Royce Cullinan do. Notably, the FerrariFF paid a gasoline consumption tax of $3,700.
Anyone who can pass the price won’t care about the 1% or 2% fee. There were so many unmarked money crates dropped on Maranello that Purosangue production was stalled for two years and Ferrari had to close the airspace. The destination charge is also not excessive, considering the source. Ferrari charged the destination $3,750 for a 812 super speedthe coupe is also subject to a $3,000 gasoline consumption tax and currently charges a $3,950 destination fee for SF90Stradale.
Rolls royce car often leads the mass-produced MSRP package among the ultra-luxury brands, Cullinan was previously the leader at a cost of about $355,000 after charging a $2,500 destination charge and a $2,600 gas consumption tax. Ferrari is not only inferior, Purosangue costs almost twice as much as Lamborghini Urus, almost twice Bentley Bentagya V8, and more than double the Aston Martin DBX. The price is so high that it seems as though it were a flexibility or an attempt to limit demand to prevent an SUV from becoming the most popular Ferrari on the road, both of which are entirely possible. It’s still a bit cheaper than the $511,250 SF90 Stradale, proving that anything can be a bargain with the right context.
