The Ferrari 296 GTS emerges as a pivotal chapter in Maranello's storied history, representing a bold leap into the hybrid era while retaining the marque's commitment to exhilarating performance. Unveiled as the convertible counterpart to the groundbreaking 296 GTB, the GTS continues the tradition of mid-rear-engined V6 convertibles that began with cars like the Dino and evolved through the F355 GTS and 488 Spider. Its name, a fusion of its 2.992-liter engine displacement, six cylinders, and the "Gran Turismo Spider" designation, signals its dual nature: a track-capable weapon and a refined open-top cruiser. The 296 GTS is particularly significant as it introduces Ferrari's first V6 engine in a road car since the Dino, but here it's augmented by a plug-in hybrid system, pushing out an astonishing 819 combined horsepower and promising an immediate, relentless surge of power unlike anything before it. This particular 2024 Ferrari 296 GTS exemplifies the model's exquisite blend of tradition and innovation, presented in the iconic Rosso Corsa over a Beige Tradizione leather and Alcantara interior. With just 1,823 miles on the odometer, this stunning example has been meticulously cared for by its original owner, who personally specified its elegant and timeless color combination. Its heart, a 3.0L Electric and Gas Hybrid V6, pairs seamlessly with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, offering a driving experience that is both brutally fast and remarkably refined. The convertible body style ensures that the glorious soundtrack of its revolutionary V6, whether in electric silence or full-throttle fury, can be fully appreciated. Having recently completed its one-year service at Ferrari of Newport Beach, where it was originally purchased, this 296 GTS is primed for its next discerning enthusiast.
