We re familiar enough with the Ferrari 296 GTB to say that we absolutely love it. Ferrari took a risk when they decided to fit it with a hybrid V6 powertrain, but it certainly paid off it s something of a benchmark for other cars in class, combining a genuinely fun driving experience with a frankly ludicrous amount of speed.
Well, now there s a convertible version. It s got the same 819bhp setup as the coupe, and Ferrari says that it s just as fast. However, convertible supercars can be a bit hit or miss - the lack of a solid roof means that you need extra strengthening throughout, which can add a fair chunk of weight, and if there isn t enough of it then the driving experience can be seriously compromised when compared to its hardtop counterpart.
MeanKronen: I really wish we can see how this car and the 812 competzione perform on a drag race but it seems like there is no a single video of that. Date: 2022-10-15
