FERRARI 296 GTS: PRACTICAL TIPS FOR EUROPEAN TRIP

For travelers exploring Europe’s most iconic destinations, such as Monaco, Cannes, Florence, Tuscany, or Milan, renting a Ferrari is about more than just speed. It is about presence, the roar of the engine, and the thrill of the open road.

However, for a 1–3 days road trip, one frequently asked question is about: “Can we actually fit our luggage in a Ferrari 296 GTS?”

At AiLiL World Rent, we believe your journey should be seamless. Here’s a closer look at what the Ferrari 296 GTS offers in terms of storage, comparisons with other Ferrari models, and real-world insights from travelers enjoying the car across Europe.

Unlike front-engine GTs, the Ferrari 296 GTS is a mid-engine supercar. This means the engine is situated behind you, and your storage is divided between the front of the car and the cabin.

1. The Front Trunk (Frunk) 200 Liters

The main luggage compartment is located under the front hood. With 200 liters of space, it is surprisingly deep for a supercar.

• What fits: Two airline-standard carry-on suitcases (IATA cabin size) OR three to four soft weekend bags, depends of your bag sizes.
• AiLiL Expert Tip: The front compartment can get warm during spirited driving due to nearby cooling systems. We recommend avoiding storing chocolate, fine wines, or heat-sensitive cosmetics here.

2. The Interior Bench (Rear Shelf)

Since the 296 GTS is a two-seater, there is a dedicated leather-trimmed shelf behind the seats.

• What fits: A slim briefcase, a designer handbag, or a light garment bag.
• Practicality: It’s the perfect spot for items you need to reach quickly during a stop in Portofino or Lake Como.

Luggage Vibe: Compact and clever

Best for: Quick weekend getaway and coastal and chianty drives.

Luggage Vibe: The Power Traveler

Best for: Serious road trips. Combines a massive V12 experience with a proper rear trunk.

Luggage Vibe: Traditional Supercar

Best for: Similar front capacity to the 296, but without the hybrid efficiency.

Luggage Vibe: Spacious GT

Best for: Longer tours with more shopping. The most "luggage-friendly" in the modern lineup.

To ensure your 1-3 days trip is as elegant as the car you’re driving, follow these "Pro-Traveler" rules:

Soft Luggage is King: Rigid suitcases are difficult to maneuver in supercar trunks. Use leather duffels or soft-sided bags to maximize every centimeter of the 200-liter frunk.

The "Shopping" Factor: If you plan on a shopping spree in Milan’s Quadrilatero della Moda, consider having your purchases shipped to your final destination or hotel.

Roof Considerations: The Retractable Hard Top (RHT) on the 296 GTS is a marvel of engineering. Opening or closing it does not reduce your front trunk space, allowing you to enjoy the sun without compromising your luggage.
