Ferrari Purosangue owners face huge suspension repair costs

The Ferrari Purosangue's active suspension costs a fortune: $21,414 per damper. Replacing all four can exceed $85,000, highlighting supercar ownership costs.

The Ferrari Purosangue is a fast V12 crossover, a family grand tourer, and a capable off-road machine all in one. That versatility, however, comes with a price tag: a single active damper costs at least $21,414—roughly 1.52 million rubles at today's rates.

If you need to replace all four dampers after the warranty runs out, the parts alone come to over $85,000—around 6 million rubles. That does not include shipping or labor. By comparison, a base Purosangue in the US starts at roughly $400,000, meaning a full set of dampers accounts for more than 20% of the car's price.

The culprit is the suspension itself. Ferrari employs Multimatic's FAST system: each damper houses a liquid-cooled 48-volt three-phase electric motor that applies force to the piston rod through a ball-screw mechanism. Electronics continuously tweak settings for comfort and handling, and the setup eliminates traditional anti-roll bars.

The setup includes not just the dampers but also a radiator, fan, and reservoir to keep the hydraulic fluid at the right temperature. As a result, the Purosangue delivers a supple ride, manages body roll, and remains accurate at high speeds—despite being a tall, four-door Ferrari.

Ferrari offers a seven-year service program on new models, but the warranty only covers three years. After that, pricey components are the owner's problem. In the Purosangue, that really drives home the gap between buying a supercar and living with it: the V12 might make the most expensive noise, but the suspension delivers the most expensive invoice.
