Italian automaker Ferrari has just launched the 296 GTS in India. Unveiled globally last year, the GTS is the convertible-top sibling to the 296 GTB. It is also only the second-ever six-cylinder road-going Ferrari car in the company’s history. Prices for the new model start from Rs 6.24 crore (ex-showroom).

The Ferrari 296 GTS looks very similar to its hard-topped sibling, the 296 GTB. The front end of the new model features the same slim LED headlights with integrated cooling intakes and aero devices. Moving to the side, one will notice the flared wheel arches, air intakes behind the doors and the aluminium hard-top that can fold away in just 14 seconds at low speeds. At the rear, the GTS features a central exit exhaust, quad LED tail lights, a diffuser, and an active rear spoiler.

These include capacitive buttons for the headlight, horn and indicators along with the e-manettino. Other key features include a fully-digital instrument cluster with different screen options, wireless charging, ventilated sports seats, a 12-speaker audio system, and more.
