Ferrari's First V6 Hybrid Model, the "296 GTB," Debuts | Ferrari
Exterior Design Referencing Details of Past Masterpieces
The body, measuring 4,565mm in length, 1,958mm in width, and 1,187mm in height, is the most compact Ferrari Berlinetta of the past decade. Elements such as the short wheelbase, muscular fenders, visor-style windshield, powerful flying buttresses, and new vertical rear screen skillfully incorporate details from limited editions like the J50 and P80/C one-offs, as well as the 1963 250 LM.
The headlights are inspired by the teardrop shape of past models, while the rear features a Kammback design with a sharp cut-off. The active spoiler, which maximizes handling and braking performance at high speeds, is integrated into the bumper design. The exhaust features a modern single center tailpipe, and the wheels have a twin five-spoke design.
Additionally, the underbody is designed to gradually approach the legally permissible minimum ground clearance towards the center, creating a suction effect through ground effect that enhances front downforce.
The cockpit pursues a pure and minimalist aesthetic. The instrument cluster is a full digital interface that is entirely black when the engine is off, gradually coming to life with all components when the start engine button is pressed. The dashboard seamlessly transitions into the sculpted door panels through its materials and colors.
