The Ferrari 250 Europa GT, produced in 1954-1955, marked Ferrari's first real foray into GT (Gran Turismo) road cars, leading a series of Ferrari models with the GT moniker. It was a road-going version of the 250 MM race car and an evolution of the 250 Europa, with only 35 units made. The Europa GT featured Pinin Farina-designed bodywork, emulating a standardized style for future production. This model represented a shift in Ferrari's strategy, focusing on more practical, everyday cars with adequate luggage space, powered by a 3.0-litre V12 engine. This move towards standardized production helped Ferrari grow and finance their racing activities. The Europa GT maintained a similar external design to the Europa, with a shortened wheelbase and a distinctive egg-crate grille, symbolizing a blend of performance and practicality.
