How to get the Ferrari 296 GTB in Fortnite
Image via Epic Games. Crossovers are nothing new in Fortnite. This Epic Games title has recently collaborated with the Star Wars franchise, where it brought Darth Vader as an AI NPC. These numerous and exciting collaborations are the reasons that this battle-royale title is still so much popular, even after eight long years. Now it's time for the famous and luxurious car brand Ferrari to enter into the world of Fortnite. And as a result, you can make a V6 supercar as your own from this company in this game. The Ferrari 296 GTB in Fortnite: How toget it? These are all the bundle contents. | Image via Epic Games. In an occasion of collaborating with Ferrari, Fortnite is bringing the 2021 beast into the game, Ferrari 296 GTB. However, this supercar comes in the Ferrari 296 GTB Bundle, which was released on May 29, at 8 PM ET in the game. Along with the car body, which is usable as a Sports Car skin in Fortnite, the bundle also comes with custom accessories, which are exclusive to your Fortnite 296 GTB. These accessories include exclusive 296 GTB wheels and seven decals: Assetto Fiorano, Assetto Fiorano Custom, Flames, Lightning, Stripers, Wings, and Rosso Corsa. The exciting part about these accessories is that three of these decals are absolutely original, which come from the real life world. So, how to get this car? It's simple, all you have to do is to buy the whole bundle through the Fortnite Item Shop for 2,800 V-Bucks, which will cost around $20. You can also buy this bundle via the official Item Shop website of Fortnite, where you just have to login with your Epic Games id, and upon purchasing the bundle, all the goodies will be sent straight to your in-game account. You can't buy the car model separately, so you have to purchase the whole bundle to enjoy the Ferrari 296 GTB in Fortnite. Players need to keep in mind that this bundle will be available to be purchased until June 13, 2025 at 5.30 AM (GMT+05:30). If you are a Rocket League player as well, then this bundle is actually a double treat for you. As the Ferrari 296 GTB is available in Rocket League as well, you don't need to buy that again in this game if you have already purchased it in Fortnite. All you need to do is to log in with the same Epic Games account of Fortnite in Rocket League as well, and your Fortnite's 296 GTB will be available in Rocket League as well.

Lamborghini Temerario vs Ferrari 296 GTB: A supercar spec-sheet showdown
Both supercars, the Lamborghini Temerario and the Ferrari 296 GTB are powered by a hybrid engine. The all-new Lamborghini Temerario and Ferrari 296 GTB represent the latest high-performance hybrids from Italy, and both have been launched in India to eager buyers. Lamborghini introduced the mid-engine Temerario (twin-turbo V8 + hybrid) in India at an ex-showroom price of ₹ 6.00 crore (Delhi), while Ferrari brought the plug-in-hybrid 296 GTB (V6 + electric motor) to India in 2022 at ₹ 5.40 crore. Beyond prices, these two supercars differ markedly in design, powertrain and technology. Below is a comparison of their specs and features. Powertrain and Performance Lamborghini's Temerario features a new 4.0‑litre, twin‑turbo V8 that makes 789 bhp at 9,000–9,750 rpm. Additionally, it gets three electric motors, bringing the combined output to 907 bhp. The engine is Lamborghini's first turbocharged sports-car V8 with a revving capability of 10,000 rpm. Paired with AWD traction, it sprints from 0 to 100 kmph in about 2.7 seconds and has a top speed of 340 kmph. Also Read : Lamborghini Urus gets a warrior makeover with Rezvani Knight armored super SUV In contrast, Ferrari's 296 GTB uses a 3.0‑litre, twin‑turbo V6 that alone makes 636 bhp mated to a rear-mounted electric motor making 164 bhp. The result is a combined output of 819 bhp and 740 Nm of torque. This RWD hybrid system launches the 296 GTB from 0 to 100 kmph in roughly 2.9 seconds, with a top speed of 330 kmph. Notably, Ferrari's larger 7.42 kWh battery provides about 25 km of pure electric range, whereas the Temerario uses Lamborghini's existing smaller pack rated at about 3.8 kWh from the Revuelto for a brief electric assist. Design and Interior The Temerario pushes Lamborghini's design language forward. Its hexagonal LED daytime running lights recall trademark Lamborghini geometry, and the mid-mounted V8 is left partially exposed under a new aero spoiler. From the side, a large Gallardo-style side intake reappears and multiple vents channel air through the broad engine bay. Inside, Lamborghini promises a 'jet-inspired' cabin with more room. The Temerario's wheelbase is longer than the Huracán's, giving extra headroom and allowing new 'comfort' seats for enhanced everyday usability. The dashboard uses a fresh human‑machine interface (HMI) and digital displays for both driver and passenger. The interior colour scheme and materials can be extensively customised via Lamborghini's Ad Personam program. An optional 'Alleggerita' package further sharpens the car. It swaps in carbon wheels and aero parts to shave off about 25 kg and boost total downforce by 67 per cent. Also Read : Sales of Ferrari's first EV to start in October next year, says CEO Ferrari's 296 GTB features flowing bodywork inspired by classic models, like the 250 LM. It also gets advanced aerodynamics and a high-tech driver cockpit. Ferrari's design refreshes its GT lineage with prominent rear fenders and a Kamm-tail which invokes the 1963 250 LM, while sleek new headlights and an 'active' rear spoiler improve aerodynamics. The cockpit is high-tech but traditional at the same time. It houses digital displays (similar to the SF90 Stradale) and Ferrari's classic 'H‑gate' shaped gear selector. In India, the 296 GTB comes standard with luxury appointments like Alcantara-wrapped power seats along with contrast stitching, a suspension lift system, carbon-fibre trim, 20-inch forged wheels, a surround-view camera and titanium wheel bolts. Technology and Features Both supercars are rich with tech. The Temerario offers advanced electronics, besides the AWD hybrid powertrain, it gets ESC, torque vectoring and adaptive magnetic fluid dampers. There is a 'Telemetry 2.0' system that logs performance data, plus an integrated dashcam and even augmented-reality navigation in the infotainment. The result is a high-tech cockpit that is on par with Ferrari's. The 296 GTB's digital dash can record lap data but Lamborghini's AR overlay and driver analytics push the envelope further. The 296 GTB's hybrid system is managed by a multi-function 'eManettino" driving mode dial, offering eDrive (all-electric), Hybrid, Performance and Qualify (maximum output) modes. Its active aero and suspension work seamlessly with the hybrid drivetrain. Check out Upcoming Cars in India 2024, Best SUVs in India. First Published Date: 17 May 2025, 11:00 AM IST
