    Ferrari 296 GTB Acceleration Video Is Seriously Impressive

    It's safe to say the 296 GTB is an absolute rocket.

    It has been quite some time since Ferrari used a six-cylinder and now that it’s back in the 296 GTB we are eager to know how the light motor performs.

    Of course, the combustion engine is accompanied by an electric motor to provide an extra 167 horses (122 kW) to deliver a combined 818 hp (610 kW) and 740 Nm (546 lb-ft) of torque. Thanks to this, the little Italian supercar will rocket off the line to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 2.9 seconds (matching the F8) and hit 200 km/h in 7.3 seconds (0.5s quicker than F8). Hold your foot down and you will do more than 205 mph (330 km/h).

    Motorsport Magazine got their hands on a press unit at the launch and recorded a seriously impressive acceleration clip. Judging from the video below, the claimed performance figures are spot on and may even be on the conservative side.

    We were quite impressed with the noise the V6 engine develops too. Even though it’s not naturally aspirated, it still revs all the way up to 8,500 rpm.

    Launch control was used for the sprint and although no sprint times were recorded, it’s safe to say the 296 GTB is an absolute rocket.

    Pricing for the Ferrari 296 GTB in South Africa starts from R6,276,200 and comes with a seven-year maintenance programme.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
