Every detail of the 296 Speciale is crafted to intensify the connection between car and driver, whether on the open road or the track.
The 296 Speciale embodies Ferrari’s uncompromising dedication to pushing performance boundaries. Its V6 hybrid powertrain has been optimized to shed weight and deliver sharper throttle response, while new high-performance materials contribute to a significantly lower overall mass.
