Instead of having a V8 like Ferrari's mid-engined supercars tend to, the 296 GTB represents a new generation of Ferrari supercar. In its middle is a 3.0-litre twin turbocharged V6 engine making 654bhp on its own, augmented by a 164bhp electric motor, bringing the total system output to 819bhp.

The 296 GTB costs £241,550 in the UK. Oh, and for the record, owing to the PHEV system the fuel consumption is around 44mpg and its CO2 emissions 150gkm. Until you turn up the V6 noise...
