Mansory Carbon Fiber Body kit set for Ferrari 296 GTS

MANSORY TEMPESTA GTS — the Carbon Fiber Widebody Program for the Ferrari 296 GTS Convertible

The Ferrari 296 GTS is the Spider variant of Maranello's first hybrid V6 road car — a 2.992-litre 120° twin-turbo petrol V6 combined with a 122 kW electric motor, delivering 819 hp combined system output through an 8-speed DCT to the rear wheels, packaged around a folding aluminium retractable hard-top (RHT) that operates in 14 seconds at speeds up to 45 km/h. Introduced at Fiorano in April 2022 following the 296 GTB coupé, the 296 GTS was Ferrari's statement that hybridisation belongs at the core of the mid-engined berlinetta category rather than at its fringes. Mansory's Tempesta GTS programme is the open-top complement to the Tempesta (for the 296 GTB) — a full carbon-fibre widebody with visual language tuned to the GTS's shorter roofline and RHT tonneau geometry. The kit preserves full retractable hard-top operation, does not conflict with the RHT hydraulics, and is engineered to retain factory ADAS and pedestrian-impact calibration.

Tempesta GTS bodywork — the open-top component schedule

The Tempesta GTS carbon-fibre inventory covers the full envelope of the car with RHT-specific adaptations: front bumper carbon replacement with deeper splitter, larger canards and reshaped intakes directing air to the V6's intercoolers; carbon bonnet with two functional heat-extraction vents; carbon front-fender extensions with louvred airflow exits behind each wheel; carbon rear-fender widebody extensions accommodating the 22" rear wheel; deep carbon side skirts with rocker-level aero channels; carbon rear bumper with exposed central diffuser and dual-exit exhaust bezels; carbon boot-lid spoiler height-optimised to clear the RHT stack when raised; carbon engine-cover louvre panel replacing the factory hot-air vent trim; carbon mirror housings; carbon rear decklid vent panels. Critically, the GTS tonneau-cover carbon panel is a separate SKU that matches the lift-and-fold kinematic of the factory tonneau. Programme includes an optional active rear wing that extends at speed and remains within Ferrari's aero envelope.

296 GTS donor specification

Donor: Ferrari 296 GTS, model year 2022 onwards. Engine: 2.992 L 120° hot-vee twin-turbo V6 (F163), direct injection. Electric motor: 122 kW between engine and gearbox.

Roof: folding aluminium retractable hard-top, 14 s cycle, up to 45 km/h operation. Suspension: double wishbone front, multi-link rear, magnetorheological dampers, e-Manettino drive-mode integration. 0-100 km/h: 2.9 s. 0-200 km/h: 7.6 s. Top speed: >330 km/h. Kerb weight: 1 540 kg dry; +70 kg over 296 GTB coupé. Electric-only range: ~25 km in eDrive mode. Battery: 7.45 kWh lithium-ion. Assetto Fiorano chassis package supported (Multimatic dampers, extra carbon, titanium springs). Programme covers both standard and Assetto Fiorano variants.

Optional Tempesta GTS engine upgrade

Independent of the visual carbon package, Mansory offers a calibration-and-hardware tune for the F163 V6: recalibrated ECU map, uprated intercoolers, high-flow intake, Mansory titanium sports exhaust with active valves. Resulting output: 830-850 hp combined system, peak torque raised to 780 Nm. The hybrid electric motor output remains factory-calibrated. All tune components are removable and reversible; factory ECU map is preserved on Mansory-issued diagnostic media for warranty reference. Engine tune is a separate commission item from the carbon package.

The 296 GTB coupé sister programme

The closed-roof counterpart is the Mansory Tempesta (296 GTB) programme — same carbon-widebody design language adapted for the fixed-roof platform, matching wheel and interior options, and supporting the Assetto Fiorano package. Owners sometimes commission matched pairs (Coupé and GTS) in identical Mansory specification.

Typical build timeline: 12-16 weeks carbon production and wheels; +3 weeks for engine upgrade if ordered; installation 2-3 weeks. Contact: hodoor.world/page/about-us, [email protected].

Owner FAQ — Tempesta GTS

Does the kit interfere with retractable-hard-top operation? No. All carbon components are engineered around RHT kinematics and the tonneau-cover carbon panel follows the factory fold-path exactly.

Are ADAS sensors and pedestrian-impact calibration preserved? Yes. Mansory retains all Ferrari ADAS mountings and pedestrian-airbag triggers; the replacement carbon bumper matches factory crash-zone geometry.

Can the hybrid powertrain still operate in eDrive mode? Yes. The electric motor and battery are untouched by the widebody programme; eDrive range of ~25 km remains factory.

Is the 296 GTS Assetto Fiorano variant eligible? Yes, with specific adaptation for the AF-spec front splitter and rear wing mountings.

Does the engine upgrade affect factory warranty? Yes, the engine tune is outside factory warranty coverage. Mansory issues its own limited warranty on installed tune components.

How does Tempesta GTS differ from Tempesta (GTB coupé)? Rear-bumper height, rear-fender profile and decklid spoiler are GTS-specific; the tonneau-cover panel is GTS-only; the remainder of the carbon inventory is shared between the two programmes.

How long before delivery? Approximately 4-5 months end-to-end including engine upgrade and install.
