Timeline

The Ferrari 195 Inter, introduced in 1950, was a grand tourer (GT) variant of the Ferrari 195 S racer. Debuting at the 1950 Paris Motor Show, it targeted the same affluent market as its predecessor, the 166 Inter, with 27 units produced within a year. The chassis numbers for these cars were odd-numbered, and their bodies were crafted by various coachbuilders: 13 by Carrozzeria Vignale, 11 by Carrozzeria Ghia, 3 by Carrozzeria Touring, and 1 by Motto. The 195 Inter was succeeded by the more powerful but similar Ferrari 212 Inter at the 1951 Paris Motor Show. The 195 Inter extended the wheelbase of the 166 Inter by 80 mm to 2,500 mm. Its distinctive feature was the larger 2.3 L Colombo V12 engine, achieved by increasing the bore from 60 to 65 mm while retaining the 58.8 mm stroke. Typically equipped with a single Weber 36DCF carburettor, the engine produced 130 PS, although some models were fitted with triple carburettors for increased power output.
