The 768 HP Ferrari GTC4Lusso off-road conversion (Elevato) Is Here

Ferrari GTC4Lusso off-road conversion Revealed as 768 HP Beast

Remember the glorious Ferrari GTC4Lusso? Now, a US company called GlasWerks Special Operations has taken the four-seater V12 shooting brake and given it the treatment nobody asked for but everyone secretly wanted. The new Ferrari GTC4Lusso off-road conversion is officially here, raising the bar (and the chassis) for exotic grand tourers.

The project, dubbed the “Elevato,” or “Elevated,” takes the stock Lusso and transforms it into a rally-ready machine with significantly more power, higher ground clearance, and dramatically increased suspension travel. It’s a bold move that firmly places the V12 Ferrari into the high-end off-road obsession segment.

Here is a look at the drastic changes that make the Elevato a true adventure machine.

The Cost of Off-Road Obsession

The Elevato debuted at SEMA, drawing massive attention for its sheer audacity. Built by the Virginia-based GlasWerks, the conversion is entirely bespoke. While the $175,000 price tag is merely the starting point for the conversion itself—not including the cost of the donor Ferrari—it positions the car as a unique alternative to the factory-built Ferrari Purosangue SUV.

GlasWerks summarizes the philosophy succinctly: “Elevato is what happens when Italian exotic pedigree meets unrestrained off-road obsession.”

Suspension and Chassis Re-engineering

This is far more than a lift kit. The suspension uses high-end components like billet aluminum control arms and reinforced hardware, with nearly the entire original suspension swapped out. The wider track and increased travel allow the car to accept slightly higher sidewall tires (rolling on 19s front and 20s rear) for better grip on loose surfaces.

Beyond the ground clearance, the naturally aspirated V12 engine receives a host of upgrades, including new intake components and an ECU tune, boosting output by 78 horsepower to a screaming 768 hp. This ensures the Ferrari GTC4Lusso off-road conversion has the grunt to handle the gravel just as well as the asphalt.
