Ferrari 296 GTB hybrid supercar on-road review. Which is better, this or the Ferrari SF90?

The Ferrari 296 GTB is Ferrari's latest 207mph hybrid supercar and having driven the Ferrari SF90 recently, I was keen to find out which one was best.

Saving 40 grand has never been an easier decision (if I were fortunate enough ti be speccing this car).

Great video as ever, thanks.

[@DavidDatura]

It seems this and the venerable 812 are the best current Ferraris. This is the first of the turbo/EV Ferraris that I like. The styling is good for once, not too fussily detailed, it has hints of the Dino (Ferrari’s most beautiful road car ever IMO) about it that I like as well. And the engine noise is fantastic! Better than any of Ferrari’s contemporary turbo V8s…and it’s a V6! The best sounding V6 I’ve heard since the Alfa’s of old. Well done Ferrari for adding character to a hybrid! When Ferrari and all other sports car manufacturers have to dump the combustion engine completely, will be a very sad day…the day all cars become drones. Great for a Rolls but not a Ferrari or Lambo.

[@luke_3_113]

So glad Harry went straight into explaining that livery, because it's horrendous - especially on car this good looking! 14k+ OMG lol Thanks for another great review.

[@siddiqahmad5193]

Color scheme definitely contentious

[@AlbertManiscalco]

definitely think the blue wheels are the worst part...if they weren't blue it wouldnt feel so OTT. also they could have gone with a bit less of the blue on the nose and it would be able to pull it all off better...but in general baby blue and ferrari red aren't colors i would be quick to combine

[@TheChannel1978]

Its 40k for this livery because the Fiorana kit also has to be ordered. It was hard to see past the odd colours but I think Harry is right about the shape being spot on. Well done Ferrari!

[@recnepselyp]

Totally agree. Kind of like Shmee’s Ford GT. Not a very good looking combo of colors, but once he explained the backstory, and his homage to the Alan Mann racing team’s Ford GT from the 60’s. The motorsport heritage made the spec a whole lot more attractive, and unique.

[@AB-80X]

You should go and drive one and discover all the ways in which is it far less of a special supercar than the SF90. I personally thing the numb steering feel, and in case of the non-AF cars, the atrociously poor throttle mapping.

[@gentnextdoor]

The SF90 felt like it was designed by a consortium. This has a flow and cohesiveness of a Italian sketching over an bottle of wine. Ferrari back on form. Great review.

[@sexyitalian891]

Glad you like it though to be honest I even enjoy the wheels. I wouldn't order this car in this spec as I have my own taste but I love how brave the car is and I really appreciate it. I likely won't be in a position to ever drive one but, if I did, my first color choices would be either viola hong kong or "green jewel", not sure the exact name of the color.

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

The wheels and seats should be thrown in a volcano

[@fjshsjvisnsks7251]

In which parrel Universe does Red and blue look good togheter ?

[@AB-80X]

Can't wrap my head around that at all. How can you think that the numb 296 steering feel is better than the F8 which gives great feedback? Then there's the lazy throttle. I have never been in a car this powerful that can have such a hard time breaking its tyres loose. By comparison the F8 is a monster that has instant response while being a turbo. The 296 is a car that actually needs to spool its turbos, and below 5k, nothing is there. And the busy chassis? What is that about? It is good in its AF version, but in the normal non-AF version, it does not work at all as it lacks feeling as a supercar. I have driven and tracked all four variants, and the only one that impressed, was the AF GTB. I can take them or leave them, but I will not have one along side my SF90 and F8. Hope the VS will be better when we see that in '26.

Thank you for the video, very enjoyable review as always!

less of the blue might have been in better balance. perhaps just the mouth opening (like on the race cars he showed) and the wheels but definitely less would have been more...

Well....I wonder what is going to make room for a 296 in Harry's garage?! I'm coming around to the looks. The overall shape is utterly gorgeous, but the front and rear end treatments looked at bit weird to me, but I think it is just because it's so new. Seeing it in some of the low sunlight in these shots really make it look heart achingly gorgeous.

[@puritan7473]

I am sure seeing it without the ghastly blue will make all the difference imho.

[@future62]

Harry you are quite the diplomat as that spec is a true horror movie. That said, a properly specced one of these should be glorious. I've always preferred engines with cylinders in multiples of 3s.... even a 3 cylinder motorcycle engine has layers and harmonics that go well beyond the monotone wail of most I4s. So this "downgrade" is actually an upgrade IMO.

[@AlbertManiscalco]

Yeah I never thought V8s were any more noble than sixes. to me they are equivalent in terms of cachet. Nobody complains about six cylinders in 911’s for example, because they do the job and sound good. It really doesn’t matter to me what size engine it is as long as it sounds good and produces enough power for its weight.

[@simonbarnes9600]

[@flyingphoenix113]

Yup. Same here. F430 and 599 were the last great Ferraris for me. 458 had an awkward seating position, terribly overboosted steering (same with the F12), and was more of a lateral step (or even step backward) rather than a step forward. The numbers continue increasing, but I'm not sure of the driving experience has ever really improved.

[@edsiffledeen7776]

Hi Harry another great video! Two quick questions 1) does the 296 feel different to the F8, if so how does it compare from a handling perspective, steering and does it feel as light as an F8? 2) I was curious if you could weigh this car, with the electric motor and all the new tech Ferrari claims I think around 1470kg dry weight - it would be nice to know what it actually weighs with fluids. Love this car especially in GTS trim. Thanks for doing what you do!

[@wasdwasdwwasd]

Usually the rule for Ferrari's and dry weights is to add around 150kg.

[@carlbeaumont4276]

Theres a touch of Testarossa in the rear, which I love. Over 800Bhp is a lot through the back tyres. Once cars get really powerful I think 4WD is essential for the none racing drivers among us.

Love the 60's flavor with this car. The livery reminds me of Richard Petty's period racing schemes and works so well because the design itself has such a timeless, classic purity. The shape harkens to yester year without coming across as "retro" or contrived. And that cockpit! I usually hate shouty high contrast interiors but there's something about the detail work in this spec that has me totally smitten!

[@oeiras99]

Really fine photograpy and sound engineering on the road with a blend of autumn colors and the red and blue of the car.

[@scottjohnson4319]

Like so many have said previously the blue was a mistake. Just because is was done in the past doesn't mean it should ever be repeated and how can a stripe be woth more that TWO concourse- level complete paint jobs?! That said a yellow or silver panel in the front and rear could be an option to personalize an all red car. Lovely job from Maranello, hop this signifies the end of the busy/fussy design era.

[@simonspencer7017]

Your face told a story when you launched it Harry. Bit more than you anticipated. Col. Ronnie Hoare also owned a large Ford garage in Bournemouth around the time he started to import Ferrais to the UK and I always remember an aside he told my father about the V12 the Colonel was driving (sorry don't know what model). He moaned every time he drove around town the plugs would oil up and he had to get it serviced. Good old days. They have come so far and I am glad to say that I have lived through the pinnacle of the combustion engine.
