In a crossover that you’d never have expected, a Japanese tuner has turned a Toyota SUV into a Ferrari Purosangue.
Ferrari is a completely iconic brand and differs greatly from the likes of your everyday car makers like Toyota.
Or so we were led to believe.
Maybe the lines between the F1 racetrack Scuderia and the everyday family SUV aren’t quite as different as you’d imagine, as one tuner believes they’ve blurred the two together.

How can a Toyota SUV become a Ferrari Purosangue?
Well, this is quite the crossover.
We’ve seen Cybertrucks looking like Fords in the past, and Japanese kit cars posing as Lamborghinis, but a Toyota x Ferrari build? This is one of the history books.
One Japanese tuner has found a way to bring these utterly traverse brands together though, with the help of a Crown Sport SUV and the Purosangue blueprints.
This is the Aero Over Crown Sport, which started out as a Toyota but has been modified with the supercar kit.
Showcased at the Tokyo Auto Salon, this crossover was placed right next to a legitimate Purosangue, and while there were a handful of differences, commenters on Instagram appreciated the efforts.
“Toyota looks more Ferrari than Ferrari itself,” one popular comment read.
Japanese tuner reveals their secret
It wouldn’t be the first time that we’ve seen the Ferrari Purosangue be the basis of a bizarre crossover, as one company previously turned it into a Dakar-ready off-roader.
This car has seen the Purosangue’s bodykit added, alongside Ferrari’s quad exhausts, horizontal light strips, mean front grille, and yellow-painted brake calipers. Even an Aero Zero badge on the bonnet comes in yellow.
This car is just a fraction of what it costs for the real deal though, being priced at 5.9 million yen (roughly $38,000).
Not quite the $350,000 that the Ferrari Purosangue actually costs.
