Pogea Racing has turned the Ferrari Purosangue super crossover into a veritable mega hatch with a widebody makeover and a significant power boost.
The official renderings released by the tuner reveal the visual upgrades that comprise the fender add-ons for a swollen design, complete with a pair of fake vents behind the front wheels. Featuring smaller side vents and a larger intake in the middle, as well as a different apron that stretches all the way up to the headlamps, the front bumper is also new.

Out back, Pogea Racing also gave it a new diffuser that kind of mirrors the look of the OEM component to some extent. However, the biggest difference is the repositioned exhaust tips that were moved from the sides to the middle. The bumper appears to be stock, and there is no weird massive wing attached to the tailgate, which is good news, as the Italian brand's super crossover looks squeaky clean despite the widebody makeover.

Between us, it doesn't look like a high-rider anymore, and that's due to the new suspension that bears KW's signature all over it. This modification has turned the Ferrari Purosangue into an exotic mega hatch. Wrapped in Michelin rubber and featuring a Y-spoke pattern, the wheels measure 23 inches at the front and 24 inches at the rear. For a bit of added comfort, a 22-inch set is also available. The entire car has a gray look with several black accents and features red brake calipers.

No images of the interior were released at the time of writing, or should we say renderings, though Pogea Racing, which is usually known for tuning Alfa Romeos and Abarths, with the occasional Ferraris making their way to the list as well, claims they're also working on upgrades for the cabin.

You shouldn't close this tab yet, as we haven't told you about the firepower. The naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine develops 715 hp (725 ps/533 kW) and 528 pound-feet (716 Nm) of torque straight from the factory. With the German tuner's help, however, the output has gone up to 820 hp (832 ps/612 kW). There's no word about the boosted performance, but it can probably hit 62 mph (100 kph) in roughly three seconds flat, considering that the stock one can do it in 3.3 seconds en route to a 193 mph (310 kph) top speed.

Pogea hasn't announced when visual and mechanical upgrades for the Ferrari Purosangue, which is the brand's first-ever high-riding vehicle, will hit the market, nor how much everything costs, but we suspect they won't exactly be on the affordable side. The Purosangue production started earlier this year in Maranello, Italy, and the model starts at almost $400,000 in the United States.
