Rent the Ferrari 296 GTB 2023 in Barcelona

About this car

The Ferrari 296 GTB pairs a twin-turbo V6 with hybrid assistance to produce 830 hp, a figure that lands with immediate, uninterrupted force rather than a delayed rush. The two-seat cockpit sits low and close to the wheel, sightlines tight over a short bonnet, and the car changes direction with a precision that rewards a deliberate hand rather than a heavy one. It is a car built for drivers who want to feel the road, not just cover it.

In Barcelona, that character suits the tighter turns south of the city more than the long straights north of it. The climb toward Montserrat's approach roads, or a run down the C-31 past Castelldefels toward Sitges, gives the 296 GTB the kind of varied cambers and elevation changes where its chassis balance shows itself. Inside the city, its width and low ride height call for care on the narrower streets around the Gothic Quarter, so most clients prefer to collect it curbside at a Passeig de Gràcia hotel or have it delivered directly to a residence before heading out toward open road.

This is a car for a driver rather than a group — a solo enthusiast, a couple treating a Barcelona stay as a driving occasion, or an executive wanting one focused afternoon behind the wheel between meetings. Booking is arranged against a €1,700 daily rate with a €15,000 security deposit; delivery can be coordinated to El Prat airport, a central hotel, or a private residence, with handover kept straightforward so the time behind the wheel starts without delay.
