Review: The 2024 Ferrari 296 GTS

  • "Internet chatter in recent years has prophesized that electrification will spell the end of the proper, blue-blooded supercar."
  • "As you connect corners, pressing its accelerator further, an invisible hand of finely tuned stability software ensures that massive output meets the road in a predictable and manageable way. Coupled with a torque-filling electric motor that creates an almost perfectly linear power curve, hustling the 296 is far easier than expected."

  • "Thanks to its adaptive Multimatic shocks and a quick steering rack, the GTS feels agile and responsive, transmitting plenty of feedback through its chassis and steering. In typical Ferrari fashion, the 296’s steering is light but precise. It makes you want to grip its leather and carbon-fiber trimmed steering wheel with your fingertips, as even subtle inputs result in significant direction changes."
