The Ferrari Purosangue stands apart in the current Ferrari lineup, offering four doors, four seats, and noticeably more ground clearance than the brand’s traditional sports cars. Ferrari avoids calling it an SUV, but this “Ferrari Utility Vehicle” still carries the marque’s high‑performance DNA thanks to a front mid‑mounted, naturally aspirated V12 capable of sports‑car‑level acceleration. With active suspension and independent four‑wheel steering, it distinguishes itself from anything else in this category.

When this model was announced under the revived Polistil brand, I immediately wondered why it wasn’t released under the far more recognizable Bburago nameplate. Early Toy Fair photos suggested a quality level similar to the Bburago Signature line. Now that I have the model in hand, it’s time for a closer look.

The Polistil Purosangue is priced in line with Bburago Signature models, yet the packaging does not reflect that. The car is held in place by only two screws, and the inner plastic frame feels flimsy—more reminiscent of the cheaper Bburago Race & Play series. On the positive side, the model presents well at first glance. Despite its size and opening parts, it feels surprisingly light out of the box.

Paint quality on my example is smooth with no visible drips or bubbles. However, imperfections become apparent once the hood is opened. Panel gaps are extremely tight—too tight, in fact. I struggled to open the front doors and had to resort to a suction tool and door opener, initially thinking the doors were defective. Even once opened, the doors barely swing out, which is disappointing. Closing them is equally frustrating, as the upper window frame refuses to sit flush without applying significant pressure. A slightly larger panel gap would have made the entire experience far more pleasant. On a better note, the hood closes with a satisfying click. The hinges are basic and very much in line with typical Bburago construction. Engine detail is acceptable for a budget model, but nothing more.

At the front, the model lacks perforated grilles—an omission that would have elevated realism. The headlights are decent but could benefit from finer detailing. Carbon-fibre elements are represented by textured plastic; not convincing, but at least present. The silver prancing horse and Ferrari badge complete the nose.

From the side, the overall shape is well captured. Carbon-fibre trim around the wheel arches and along the lower doors is again rendered in plastic, consistent with the front. Although the rear doors do not open, the panel gap matches the front doors, creating the illusion of functionality. The fuel cap has good depth, and the Ferrari decal behind the front wheel arch is neatly applied.

The rear follows the same execution as the front. The lower carbon-fibre section is textured plastic, and the taillights and reflectors are typical of budget die‑cast models. The exhaust tips show depth, the trunk shut line is tight, and the rear spoiler looks accurate. Silver Ferrari branding below the window and a well‑chosen license plate finish the look.

Before discussing wheels and tires, it’s worth noting that this model includes working suspension. The rims are well executed and appear accurate, with a five‑bolt pattern and Ferrari‑logo center caps. Yellow brake calipers include Ferrari scripts, and while the rotors aren’t premium, they are acceptable. Tire tread is present, though there is no sidewall branding or sizing.

Inside, you’re met with an all‑black interior dominated by moulded plastic. There is no flocking or premium material of any kind. Photography is difficult due to the limited door opening angle and sealed rear doors. This is easily the weakest aspect of the model, and I would recommend displaying it with the doors closed.

In summary, the Polistil Ferrari Purosangue displays well when closed but carries several shortcomings. In my view, its overall quality sits slightly below that of similarly priced Bburago Signature models. Collectors seeking fine detail and willing to spend significantly more will find the upcoming BBR version far more satisfying. However, if your priority is enjoying the shape and presence of the Purosangue in a solid exterior execution, this Polistil release will serve that purpose well.
