The All-Electric car from Lamborghini is the most powerful car ever
How powerful could the Lanzador be? A search for the EV-related specifications in a Lamborghini inspired concept of a super-high-performance vehicle
I immediately searched for the EV-related specifications that would show that this concept would be one of the most powerful on the road. There are details like range, battery, charging capacity, and even zero to 60mph acceleration that are being coy. The Italian sports car maker did reveal one tantalizing bit of information: the Lanzador is capable of “peak power of over one megawatt.”
Of course, the Lanzador was designed to optimize aerodynamics for improved driving and range. Air resistance can be adjusted according to the driver’s preference. It is similar to the system that was put into the Huracn Performante and Aventador, along with new active aero devices in the front and back to ensure the best efficiency. And an active chassis with a steerable rear axle and air suspension are able to be controlled through the steering wheel.
“This allows the driving character to be more precisely differentiated to the individual driver than ever before: information delivered back to the driver by intelligent sensors positioned behind the new ‘pilot’s’ glass panels mounted at the front of the car, giving a taste of future radar technology,” Lamborghini says.
The hexagonal-shaped taillights take their inspiration from the CountachLPI 800-4. The large 23 inch wheels combine hexagonal elements with aeroblades to minimize turbulence.
Lamborghini, 350 GT and Carrozzeria: An Upstart’s Road Cruiser for a Family of Grand Touring Vehicles
The inclusion of recycled nylon and plastic as well as regenerated carbon fiber for the interior is in addition to 3D-printed materials and a more sustainable supply chain. The leather and wool procurement of the automaker is made using renewable energy. Synthetic yarn made from recycled plastics is what it uses.
When Ferruccio Lamborghini founded his car company in 1963, he didn’t start with the outlandish supercars we know as Lambos today, complete with vertically hinged doors and flame-spitting V12 engines.
Instead, the tractor builder and former Italian Royal Air Force mechanic came up with the 350GTV concept, followed by the production-ready 350 GT. Designed by Carrozzeria, the 350 GT had two seats and was a grand tourer with enough storage for a weekend away. Instead of following his Italian neighbor to the racetrack, the new upstart had built a comfortable highway cruiser.
