Ferrari 296 GTS Spider — Milan

The 296 GTS Spider is Ferrari's mid-engine plug-in hybrid with the roof removed — a twin-turbo V6 paired with an electric motor, producing the kind of immediate torque that reshapes how you think about acceleration. It is a compact, precise car, shorter and lighter than the F8 it sits alongside in the range, and that matters on the roads north of Milan where the driving actually happens. Two variants are available through Milan Luxury Cars, covering the 2024 and 2025 model years, with daily rates from €1,900. Both are spider configurations: the retractable hardtop folds in fourteen seconds, which means you can leave Porta Nuova under grey morning sky and have the roof stowed before you clear the A9 toll heading toward Como. What sets the 296 GTS apart as a rental proposition is its duality. In electric mode at low speed, it moves through Area C camera zones and hotel forecourts without theatre — quiet enough for a Quadrilatero della Moda pickup where discretion matters. Once the V6 takes over on open road, the character shifts entirely. The exhaust note through the lakeside tunnels on the SP583 between Cernobbio and Bellagio is reason enough to choose this car over a larger Ferrari for a day drive. Handover can be arranged at Malpensa or Linate, at your Milan hotel, or at a convenient suburban point that avoids congestion-charge logistics altogether. For clients continuing beyond Lombardy — toward Franciacorta for an afternoon among the vineyards, or further east on the A4 — the 296 GTS covers ground comfortably at autostrada pace without the physical demands of a wider, more aggressive supercar. A practical note: this is a two-seat car with limited luggage space behind the seats. It suits a couple or a solo driver well. Families or groups combining a Lake Como loop with Bergamo Alta should consider pairing it with an SUV booking for the days that require capacity. The 296 GTS is best used for what it does better than almost anything else in the fleet — a focused, open-air drive where the road is the point.
