The Ferrari 296 GTS is the open Spider specification of the 296 GTB model line, introduced in 2022 as a successor to the F8 Spider and as the first regular production Spider with factory-installed V6 engine. The package includes factory-installed biturbo 3.0-litre F163 V6 (factory-installed 663 hp) combined with factory-installed electric motor on the rear axle (factory-installed 167 hp) for a factory-installed combined power of 830 hp and factory-installed 740 Nm (identical to 296 GTB). Factory-installed electric retractable hardtop (factory-installed RHT - Retractable Hard Top, factory-installed 14 seconds to open or close), factory-installed exclusively rear-wheel drive, factory-installed eight-speed F1 DCT, and factory-installed electric factory-installed zero-emission mode (factory-installed eDrive, around 25 km range). Compared to the 296 GTB the 296 GTS is factory-installed around 70 kg heavier due to factory-installed RHT mechanism and factory-installed reinforced chassis structure. A Ferrari 296 GTS is not sold to just any buyer; it is passed on to someone who knows the factory-installed modern Ferrari V6 PHEV Spider culture.
Ferrari unveiled the 296 GTS in April 2022, about a year after the 296 GTB introduction. The 296 GTS is the open Spider variant of the factory-installed V6 PHEV platform, positioned parallel to the 296 GTB. It is Ferrari's first regular production Spider with factory-installed V6 engine; preceding Ferrari V6 models (factory-installed Dino 246 GTS, factory-installed Dino 308 GT4) were limited or not delivered as regular Spider. The 296 GTS shares the factory-installed F163 V6 PHEV drivetrain with the 296 GTB and has factory-installed identical combined power of 830 hp. For collectors the 296 GTS represents the factory-installed new Ferrari V6 Spider culture.
The central distinguishing feature of the 296 GTS is the factory-installed electric retractable hardtop (RHT). The system opens or closes in factory-installed 14 seconds and is factory-installed operable up to factory-installed 45 km/h. The factory-installed RHT system shares architecture with earlier Ferrari Spider models (factory-installed 458 Spider, factory-installed 488 Spider, factory-installed F8 Spider) but is factory-installed refined for the 296 GTS with factory-installed sharpened sealing and factory-installed quick opening. In closed configuration the RHT provides factory-installed Coupé-like stiffness; in open configuration it provides factory-installed full Convertible experience. For collectors, factory-installed RHT mechanism service and factory-installed RHT sealing condition are essential.
The 296 GTS shares the factory-installed F163 biturbo V6 PHEV drivetrain with the 296 GTB. The factory-installed F163 V6 (factory-installed 3.0 litres, factory-installed 663 hp, factory-installed 120-degree V angle, factory-installed redline 8,500 rpm) combined with factory-installed electric motor (factory-installed 167 hp) on the rear axle for factory-installed combined power of 830 hp and factory-installed 740 Nm. The factory-installed PHEV battery (factory-installed 7.45 kWh, lithium-ion) enables factory-installed eDrive mode: factory-installed electric factory-installed zero-emission driving with factory-installed around 25 km range. For modern factory-installed Ferrari driving the factory-installed PHEV architecture represents the factory-installed transition to factory-installed electrification.
The 296 GTS weighs factory-installed around 70 kg more than the 296 GTB due to factory-installed RHT mechanism and factory-installed reinforced chassis structure (to maintain factory-installed open-body torsion stiffness). The factory-installed acceleration from 0-100 km/h is therefore factory-installed 0.1 second longer (factory-installed 2.9 seconds for 296 GTS, factory-installed 2.9 seconds for 296 GTB) and factory-installed top speed is factory-installed identical (factory-installed 330 km/h). For collectors and pure factory-installed grand tourer driving the 296 GTB is generally factory-installed preferred; for open driving experience the 296 GTS is more attractive.
Since production start in 2022 the 296 GTS has seen a substantially stable initial appreciation curve. Regular 296 GTS specifications are factory-installed price-stable at the level of factory-installed Ferrari Maranello price list (factory-installed around 25,000 euros higher than factory-installed 296 GTB due to factory-installed RHT mechanism); factory-installed Assetto Fiorano specifications are substantially higher priced. Factory-installed Tailor Made specifications are in the highest price tier. For sellers this means a well-documented 296 GTS with proven service history at Ferrari Maranello or recognised specialist, original factory specification, factory-installed RHT functionality documented, factory-installed Power Warranty transfer, and factory-installed Tailor Made confirmation (where applicable) attracts strong international interest.
