Ferrari 296 GTB – the first V6 Gas and Electric Engine!
I was so lucky to be invited to the unveiling of the new Ferrari 296 GTB at Ferrari of New England! Ernie Boch Jr, the owner of dealership has once again created an awesome experience!
The latest Ferrari 296 GTB defines "fun to drive." Its 120° V6 engine is coupled with an electric motor. For the first time, Ferrari has combined its best-in-class engine power (663 cv) with an electric motor, resulting in an overall power output of 830 cv. The Ferrari 296 gets from 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds with a V6 engine.
By placing the turbochargers within the V, this engine is the most powerful and compact production V6 engine ever produced, lowering its center of gravity, reducing its mass, and producing high levels of power.
Experience the thrill of driving the 296 GTB on Abu Dhabi's road and track with the video below:
