Ferrari 296 GTB with impressive acceleration

In the middle of last year, Ferrari introduced the 296 GTB model with a V6 engine. It is a hybrid car that has found its place above the F8 Tributo. Now, the guys from the YouTube channel Motorsport Magazine in a short video have shown the acceleration of this supercar.

The 296 GTB is powered by a 3.0-liter biturbo V6 engine with 654 hp (481 kW) and an electric motor with 165 hp (121 kW), for a total of 819 hp (602 kW) and 546 lb-ft (740 Nm ) of torque. With a weight of 1,470 kg (3241 lbs) it reaches 62 mph in just 2.9 seconds, 124 mph (200 km / h) in 7.3 seconds with a top speed of more than 205 mph (330 km / h). Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The car is equipped with a 7.45 kWh battery that produces enough power for a range of 16 miles (25 kilometers).

On the road, they reached a speed of 292 km / h (182 mph), which is not the top speed that this car can reach. The start up of the V6 engine was impressive, which surprised even the visitors of the YouTube channel.

The exterior of the Ferrari 296 GTB is similar to the SF90 model, but also to the racing Ferrari models from the 60s. The car features large side vents, an active rear spoiler that ensures better traction when driving at higher speeds.

Inside, in the center is a digital interface with most of the instruments concentrated on the driver’s side. Two seats of perfect workmanship which, with the instrument panel and steering wheel, complete the interior design.

Honda will build Sony’s first EV

Sony has joined forces with Honda to produce Sony’s first EV. It all started two years ago, when Sony introduced the concept of its first electric car, the Sony Vision-S. A year later, testing of the electric sedan prototype began. Last month, Vision-S 02 was unveiled at CES in Las Vegas.

The seven-seater, Vision-S 02, is equipped with in-seat speakers that create a 3D audio experience, a panoramic infotainment system and separate rear screens that allow you to watch a variety of content and play games via a remote connection to the Sony PlayStation console.

Sony Vision-S 02 is powered by two electric motors with a total power of 536 hp (400 kW). Vision-S reaches 62 mph in 4.8 seconds with a top speed of 149 mph (240 km / h). Vision-S 02 is a bit heavier and slower.

Sony announced that it will produce the cars in cooperation with the Japanese company Honda. The cooperation will be realized through the newly established company “New Company.” The plan is for the first EVs to hit the market by 2025.

It is currently unknown whether the Vision-S and Vision-S 02 concepts will be the basis for the new Sony EV.
