Introducing the latest Ferrari 296 GTB, a furiously complex model. If you’re itching to hear the growl of the Italian brand’s new model, take a look at its features first, as this may be a challenging thoroughbred to master.
With the Gran Turismo Berlinetta format, Ferrari’s new hybrid incorporates a 663-hp combustion engine and a 167-hp electric motor. This fusion results in a power output of 830 hp, accelerating to 100 km/h in less than three seconds and 200 km/h in less than eight. At 4.56 metres long, the plug-in hybrid can be driven using electric only, in which mode it can achieve a maximum speed of 135 km/h and a range of 25 kilometres. Inside lies a V6 twin turbo engine, while outside it reveals shapes that highlight the muscularity of the rear haunches, as well as the positioning of the driver’s compartment. It has, in Ferrari’s history to this day, the shortest distance between axles, enabling greater speed when entering curves.

A furiously complex model
It is a model with a futuristic streak, although it is not the first plug-in hybrid in the collection, as that title goes to the SF90 Stradale model. Still, it is a first for the brand, if you count the electric component. The traditional side of Ferrari will always strive towards internal combustion, but evolution imposes itself along the way, which forces it to change its ways in the construction of new models. And indeed, the 296 GTB is a vehicle made almost from scratch. The angle between the cylinder banks, 120 degrees, is more open, almost flat. The turbochargers are beefed up so that the rotor spins up to 180,000 revolutions per minute, making it 24% more efficient. And for an intense experience, the car also has the four driving modes - eDrive, Hybrid, Qualify and Performance.
It is the elegant, minimalist features that make the Ferrari 296 GTB the standout vehicle of the moment. Noisy elements, creases and folds have been left out, focusing on low fronts, diamond shaped headlights, widened rear bumpers and the essential identifying element: the elegant silhouette common to the whole Italian family. 
On fire, the new model is out there, looking for someone who dares to tame it.
