Ferrari 296 GTB with 900 hp

In the middle of last year, Ferreri introduced the 296 GTB model. It is Ferrari’s first “real” model that is powered by a six-cylinder engine, and due to the hybrid powertrain, it is far from the entry-level model. German tuning company DMC has improved the aerodynamics and engine performance of this model.

The car is painted red with black carbon parts, and the company says that the aerodynamics of the vehicle enable increased grip in corners and handling. The 296 GTB is equipped with a new set of springs that bring the floor of the Ferrari two-seater closer to the ground by an additional 35 millimeters.

The Ferrari 296 GTB is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine with 654 hp (488 kW) and an electric motor with 165 hp (123 kW) that give a total of 819 hp (610 kW) and 546 lb-ft (740 Nm) of torque. Thanks to turbochargers, DMC engineers have raised the power to 900 hp (662 kW), which (with a recalibrated gearbox) should further improve the performance of the 1,470 kilogram heavy plug-in hybrid. The engine is paired with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. The base model reaches 62 mph in 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph (330 km / h).

The price of the upgrade of the Ferrari 296 GTB costs 270,000 EUR, which does not include the optional Assetto Fiorano package.

Ferrari Daytona SP3

During the 2021 Ferrari World Cup Finals, Ferrari introduced the Daytona SP3 model. With a modern design, it is considered the most aerodynamically efficient model ever built.

It is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine from the 812 Competizione with 828 hp (617 kW) and 514 lb-ft (697 Nm) of torque, mounted behind the passenger compartment. For faster gear changes, the engine is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in less than 3 seconds with a top speed of 211 mph (340 km / h).

In the construction of the Daytona SP3, lightweight materials such as carbon fiber and Kevlar were used. It is equipped with a new induction and exhaust system, vertical bars at the rear that extend the entire length. There’s also a rear spoiler under which the rear lights are fitted, as well as exhaust pipe ends that give the car a more aggressive look.

The design of the car was inspired by racing models from the 60s: 330P3 / 4, 330P4 and 412P, thus joining the Monza SP1 and SP2 models. It is equipped with specially made Pirelli tires for wet and dry roads.

This will be a limited production model, and Ferrari has not announced how many units will be produced or at what price.

Ferrari Roma upgraded by Novitec

The Ferrari Roma is generally considered a beautifully designed car, and Novitec has decided to upgrade this model. In order to fulfill the wishes of owners who want to further improve the design of their car and give it more power, Novitec has prepared a special equipment kit.

The Novitec equipment kit brings carbon parts such as a new front grille, front spoiler, new sills and new side mirror housings. The rear has been enhanced with a new lip spoiler on the boot lid, as well as a diffuser insert and a vertical carbon fin, and 21-inch and 22-inch Vossen rims.

The Ferrari Rome is also equipped with sport springs, and thanks to the adjustable suspension, the car is closer to the ground by 35 mm. However, Novitec has also installed a front lift system so that the body can be raised on the front axle by 40 mm when needed.

Ferrari Roma is powered by a 3.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 704 hp (518 kW) and 650 lb-ft (882 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 202 mph (325 km / h).

Novitec did not say how much it costs to improve the performance of Ferrari Roma.
