The second generation of Dino was introduced by Ferrari in 1973 but only with the three-liter engine, while the two-liter version appeared in 1975.

In 1973, at the Paris Motor Show, Ferrari unveiled the Dino GT4. A shocking departure from the curvy Pininfarina design and an approach to the modernist, edgy style of the Bertone studios.

People wanted more power from the tiny Ferrari, so in 1969 the Dino 246 GT came out with a slightly bigger engine that cranked 195 hp.

The Dino was the first mid-engine road car produced by Ferrari, but without wearing the prancing horse badge.
