About renting the Ferrari 296 GTS in Dubai

The Ferrari 296 GTS is a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 plus electric-motor hybrid supercar — 819bhp combined, hybrid all-wheel-effect (electric motor drives the rear via the transmission), two seats, retractable folding hardtop — priced from AED 2,969 per day. It covers 0-100 km/h in 2.9 seconds, tops out at 330 km/h, and can drive short distances on electric power alone. Available for rent in Dubai with delivery to your address, hotel, or DXB airport within Dubai limits. Deposit is AED 4,500. The first 250 km per day are included; the current daily rate is shown at the top of this page.

The 296 is Ferrari's first road-going V6 supercar since the 246 Dino, and the first mid-engined production Ferrari to use a hybrid V6 — a genuine architectural shift for the brand. The 3.0-litre 120-degree twin-turbo V6 produces 654bhp on its own; the axial-flux electric motor mounted between the engine and the gearbox adds another 165bhp for a combined 819bhp. In practice this delivers pure electric drive at parking-lot speeds (silent creep out of a valet), instant torque fill when you get on the throttle, and a top-end that pulls hard past 8,000 rpm.

Inside is Ferrari's latest cabin architecture: touch-capacitive steering wheel controls (which take some acclimatisation), full digital cockpit, the classic manettino for drive modes plus a new eManettino for hybrid modes (eDrive electric-only, Hybrid, Performance, Qualify). Colour on this car is red. The folding hardtop cycles in 14 seconds and can be operated up to about 45 km/h — same mechanism, same convenience as the 488 Spyder, with the added trick of accompanying that with silent electric-only running.

The 296 GTS rents to two customer types. The first is the enthusiast who wants to experience the current-generation Ferrari — hybrid, V6, the direction the brand has taken. The second is the customer who wants a Ferrari that is genuinely usable for a full weekend in Dubai: eDrive lets you leave a hotel or a residential building at 6 AM without a V6 waking anyone; hybrid mode gives you comfortable long-distance cruising with the fuel economy of a mainstream car; Performance and Qualify modes deliver the full 819bhp on demand. Standard Dubai destinations are all in scope. Minimum age is 27 (supercar tier). Book a week ahead in high season for weekend windows — the 296 is one of our tightest-availability supercars during November to March. Delivery is AED 110 anywhere within Dubai.

Against the Ferrari 488 Spyder in our fleet, the 296 is quicker, hybrid, and current-generation; the 488 is analogue, turbocharged V8, the classic pre-hybrid drop-top Ferrari. Against the Ferrari SF90 Stradale, both are hybrid Ferraris but the SF90 is the AWD flagship with three electric motors and a V8 (986bhp combined) — heavier, more expensive, and coupé-only. The 296 is lighter, roof-down-capable, and more usable day-to-day. Against the Porsche 911 GT3, the 296 is far quicker but a very different character — turbocharged and electrified rather than the GT3's naturally-aspirated flat-six.
