Mansory for Ferrari 296 GTB and GTS — Next-Gen V6 Hybrid Gets Carbon Treatment
The Ferrari 296 GTB and its open-top GTS counterpart represent a paradigm shift in mid-engine Ferrari engineering. The 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6 paired with an electric motor delivers 830 CV in Assetto Fiorano specification, making it one of the most technologically advanced road cars Ferrari has ever produced. Mansory's Tempesta programme for the 296 adds carefully engineered aerodynamic components that complement the car's compact, aggressive design language while introducing the tuner's signature carbon fibre craftsmanship.
Kit Overview
The Mansory Tempesta programme for the 296 GTB and GTS includes a full exterior aerodynamic package, performance exhaust system, custom forged wheels, lowering module, and comprehensive interior re-trim. The design philosophy focuses on enhancing the 296's existing aerodynamic efficiency while adding visual distinction. All carbon fibre components are produced using pre-preg autoclave technology at Mansory's German facility, ensuring consistent quality and precise fitment.

Variations
296 GTB Tempesta
The coupe variant receives the full aerodynamic package including the vented carbon bonnet and fixed rear wing. The enclosed cabin allows for a more comprehensive interior transformation with full headliner re-trim in Alcantara, illuminated door sills, and carbon fibre centre console replacement. The closed roof architecture also accommodates a roof scoop option for additional engine cooling.
296 GTS Tempesta
The GTS variant shares the core aerodynamic components with specific adaptations for the retractable hardtop mechanism. The rear wing mounting points are repositioned to clear the roof storage area, and the engine cover design accommodates the folding mechanism. Interior options mirror the GTB with the addition of a wind deflector finished in matching carbon fibre.

Installation Notes
Professional installation at a certified facility is required. The 296's hybrid powertrain requires careful handling during exhaust system installation to avoid interference with the high-voltage battery and electric motor components. The carbon fibre exterior panels are pre-fitted with OEM-style mounting hardware for straightforward replacement of factory components. The electronic lowering module is a plug-and-play device that interfaces with the factory suspension ECU. Installation typically requires 35 to 50 hours for the complete programme.
Pricing
The Mansory 296 Tempesta exterior package starts from approximately EUR 48,000 for the core carbon components. The complete programme with wheels, exhaust, lowering module, and interior ranges from EUR 85,000 to EUR 140,000. Contact Hodoor World for a personalised quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Mansory kit work with the 296 Assetto Fiorano package?
Yes, all components are compatible with both standard and Assetto Fiorano specifications. The lowering module accounts for the Assetto Fiorano's different spring rates.
Will the exhaust modification affect the hybrid system?
The Mansory exhaust replaces only the post-catalytic converter section and does not interfere with the electric drive system or battery management.
Can I retain the factory active aerodynamics?
The factory active rear spoiler is replaced by the Mansory fixed wing. The front active flaps remain functional with the Mansory front bumper add-on.
What carbon fibre weave options are available?
Mansory offers standard 2x2 twill weave, forged carbon, and 4x4 twill weave. Custom coloured carbon with tinted resin is also available on request.
Is ECU tuning included?
ECU optimisation is available as a separate option. The base kit does not require any software modifications.
