The name Ferves stands for Ferrari Veicoli Speciali (“Ferrari Special Vehicles”). That is, a Ferrari SUV is for sale, although there is a nuance – it has nothing in common with the famous Italian brand. The fact is that the company was founded by entrepreneur Carlo Ferrari – the namesake of Enzo Ferrari.
The miniature four-seater Ferves Ranger reaches only 3 m in length and weighs 530 kg. It has small wheels and lacks side windows and interior trim.

The Ferrari SUV is built on the Fiat 600 chassis, and the 500 cc 18-horsepower engine located at the rear was borrowed from the Fiat 500. The maximum speed is 72 km / h. All-wheel drive is also provided.
