Ferrari is said to be working on a more hardcore version of the 296 Speciale. The new track-focused, mid-engined supercar was recently spotted testing round Maranello, and rumours suggest that it might get some wild upgrades.
As you can see, the new version looks more like a road-legal Challenge car. The swan neck rear wing is just like the one you find on the track version. It features large end plates and probably can be adjusted manually. Just like the 296 Challenge, it has a rear diffuser and mesh-type fascia with dual centre exhausts, low side skirts and a prominent front splitter.
As per rumours, the new track-ready version of the 296 Speciale could be powered by the same 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6. However, unlike the Speciale, Ferrari might do away with the hybrid system and retune the V6 to deliver around 700 hp.
While there has been no official word about a new Challenge Stradale model, some say that we might get to see the car as early as July 2026.
