Unveiled on 13 September 2022, the Ferrari Purosangue represents a genuine turning point in Maranello's history: a four-door, four-seater grand tourer built around a mid-front, naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 producing 725 cv at 7,750 rpm. BBR Models has translated that landmark road car into a 1:18 resin model finished in Grigio Alloy, the factory-listed blue-grey metallic that brings a composed, understated presence to a car of considerable performance.
Ferrari's V12 Four-Door — and What Makes It Different
The Purosangue is the first four-seat, four-door car Ferrari has ever produced in its 75-year road-car history. Despite its format, Ferrari does not classify it as an SUV; it is engineered as a sports car, with a transaxle layout, an 8-speed F1 DCT dual-clutch gearbox, and a 49/51 front-to-rear weight distribution. That V12 delivers 716 Nm of torque at 6,250 rpm, dispatching 0–100 km/h in 3.3 seconds on the way to a top speed exceeding 310 km/h. The overall length of the car is 4,973 mm.
Grigio Alloy: A Factory Colour That Earns Its Place
Ferrari's Grigio Alloy is a metallic blue-grey finish listed in the factory colour palette for the Purosangue. Where Rosso Corsa draws attention through tradition, Grigio Alloy works through restraint — the cool, shifting metallic tone reading differently in artificial light and natural daylight. On a body with the Purosangue's depth of surfacing, including its sculpted flanks and the pronounced front haunches required by the V12's mid-front placement, the colour becomes a study in form. Examples in this shade are expected to be less common on the secondary collector market than red or black variants.
BBR Models in Resin at 1:18
BBR Models is among the most established Italian producers of high-fidelity resin scale models, long associated with close reference to Ferrari's own design. The Purosangue is rendered here as a sealed resin body at 1:18 scale — the material allowing fine surface definition across the complex aerodynamic surfaces and door architecture of the Purosangue. The model is supplied with a display showcase, keeping the resin finish protected from dust without obstructing the view from any angle.
In the Display Cabinet
At 1:18, the Purosangue's 4,973 mm body translates into a model that occupies a meaningful footprint on any shelf — plan for generous depth as well as width, given the car's pronounced stance. It pairs naturally alongside other contemporary Ferrari V12 road cars in the same scale, such as the 812 Competizione, forming a coherent narrative about Maranello's naturally aspirated lineage at a moment when that engine format is becoming increasingly rare. The included showcase makes it cabinet-ready from the outset.
Frequently asked questions
How big is the 1:18 scale model?
The Ferrari Purosangue measures 4,973 mm in overall length. At 1:18 scale that produces a model of approximately 28 cm. Allow for adequate shelf depth as well as width — the Purosangue's wide-body stance means the footprint is generous in both directions.
Does the model have opening parts?
The Purosangue by BBR Models is a resin model with a sealed one-piece body — no opening doors, bonnet or tailgate. Collector detail is concentrated on the exterior surfaces: the sculpted bodywork, V12 air intakes, quad exhaust layout, and the Grigio Alloy metallic finish itself.
What material is the model made from?
BBR Models produces this piece in resin rather than diecast metal. Resin allows sharper definition of complex surfaces and finer paint application, which is why it is the preferred material for high-fidelity road-car replicas at 1:18 scale.
Why is the Purosangue significant in Ferrari's history?
The Purosangue, unveiled 13 September 2022, is the first four-door, four-seater car Ferrari has ever built. It also carries a naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 — an engine format that is increasingly rare in contemporary road cars — making it a double landmark within the marque's history.
