Overview

The Ferrari 296 (Type F171) is a sports car built since 2022 by the Italian company Ferrari. The 296 is a two-seater, offered as a GTB coupe and a GTS folding hard-top convertible. It is a plug-in hybrid with a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and its powertrain combines a twin-turbocharged 120-degree bank angle V6, with an electric motor fitted in between engine and gearbox. The 296 can be driven in electric-only mode for short distances, to comply with use in urban zero-emission zones. Unveiled on 24 June 2021, the 296 is Ferrari's first stock model with 6-cylinders other than the Dino 206 GT, 246 GT and 246 GTS cars produced by Ferrari but sold under the Dino marque.

The 296 GTB is powered by the F163 BC – a 2992 cc twin-turbo 120° V6 engine – with a maximum output of 488 kW at 8,000 RPM, in combination with a 123 kW and 315 Nm (232 lb-ft) of torque electric motor. The system output is given as 830 PS and has a combined torque of 740 Nm (546 lb-ft) at 6,250 RPM. A high-voltage accumulator positioned under the floor with an energy capacity of 7.45 kWh enables an electrical range of 25 km. The sports car accelerates to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds, and the top speed is specified as over 330 km/h.

06 Buyer's guide

Who it suits

  • Drivers buying for enjoyment rather than space: coupes and roadsters trade rear space for style and handling.
  • High-mileage or city drivers who want lower fuel use without charging.

Check before you buy

  • Ask for a battery state-of-health report: the traction battery is the main value driver in a used hybrid or electric car. Battery SOH tool
  • Ask for service records: turbocharged engines are sensitive to oil changes and cool-down habits.
  • Read the auction sheet grade and notes, and verify the odometer against service and inspection records. How to read an auction sheet
  • Run a history check (accidents, flood, mileage) before you bid. History check guide
  • Import age rules: this generation already qualifies in Kenya. Confirm the rule for your exact vehicle with customs before buying. Landed-cost calculator
