  • Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 comes with a next-gen FIA-approved roll cage

    2022 Lamborghini Essenza SCV12The new Lambo Essenza SCV12 is the first vehicle on the market that features carbon fiber roll cage homologated according to the FIA Hypercar safety standards. This achievement is the result of the Lambo team’s 30 years of experience in the study and practice of composite materials in the automotive field.

    The special chassis model is produced in Lamborghini’s CFK Department in Sant’Agata Bolognese, the division that also produces the Aventador lineup.

    The testing requirements are extremely rigorous and require both static and dynamic examinations. This means the technicians have modified the structure after tons of tests and have managed to present us with the optimal result.

    As it comes to the cage itself, it features a reinforced structure that can withstand a force of over 12 tons. There have been more than 20 static tests conducted aided some modifications and improvements to be carried out to the chassis, pedals, belts, and fuel tank. The dynamic tests, on the other hand, have contributed to enhancing the overall rigidity and safety within the cage.

    2022 Lamborghini Essenza SCV12

    Furthermore, the decision to incorporate an entire carbon fiber roll cage, instead of a steel one has allowed the engineering team to reduce the overall weight of any vehicle with such a cage, and also ensure optimal driving comfort, all along with enhancing the overall driver’s safety.

    Within the Essenza SCV12, the driver sits on an OMP FIA 8862 homologated seat, mounted on carbon fiber cradles designed by Squadra Corse and produced in Lamborghini’s CFK laboratories. The seat is lowered, compared to the road models and the driver and passenger benefit from one more layer of protection – the two side-impact guards contribute to a safer and more pleasurable ride.

    The first units of Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 were delivered to customers in April 2021, and the dedicated program of track events will start at the end of June.

  • Sizzling Hot Pantones To Watch Out For In 2019/2020

    2019-Lamborghini-910The latest Pantone color palettes have been published, and far from merely dominating the fashion world, they are also taking the automotive industry by storm. If masculine greys, pristine whites and cherry reds have dominated the color game for the past decade, car fans are seeing a huge turn-around in 2019, with bright, bold, even neon shades beginning to dominate luxury car marques. Without a doubt, the zeitgeist of the new millennium is aspiration, and those who have tried and succeeded are opting to show off the fruits of their efforts in loud and lively ways. These are just a few hues to watch out for in 2019/2020.

    Nitro Yellow

    Bright but warm, loud but elegant all at once. Nitro yellow, which graces cars ranging from the upmarket Lamborghini Urus to Toyota’s new 2020 Supra model, is an ideal choice for those into serious yet confident hues that make a statement. Nitro yellow is undoubtedly a unique choice for Lamborghini’s first SUV. The car, which boasts Bentley-esque interiors and luxury features like fine leather trimming and black natural grain wood inside, is anything but serious on the outside. Lamborghini has always loved playing with color, but its designers are spreading the word that the color yellow certainly isn’t just for speed freaks. Toyota has followed suit, reflecting customers’ greater confidence with out-of-the-box design. If in the past bright colors may have put customers off owing to the potentially greater visibility of scratches and imperfections, the greater availability of home solutions has appeased these fears. As demonstrated by Automotive TouchUp review, imperfections can be covered with a small range of products that can be applied by amateurs as well as professionals.

    Orange Squeeze

    Continuing in the line of citrics, vivid orange is also being seen on cars like the new Ford Mustang, the Aston Martin DBS Luxury or the McLaren 600LT. Orange is a fine alternative for sporty drivers who are into upbeat, warm hues, but who wish to forego the traditional red. Orange is seen as a youthful, more original choice. This hue also complements black to perfection, making it the perfect choice for the McLaren 600LT, whose roof, doors, and frontal design are graced with serious black accents in cutting-edge matte textures.

    Brilliant Blue

    The Jaguar F-Pace comes in a host of colors, but interestingly, three of them are blue. Loire Blue is a cross between midnight blue and purple; dark and sexy, it has just the slightest touch of color for those who don’t wish to go all-black. Far more jovial is Caesium Blue, which shines bright in the daytime and plays down to a more discrete marine blue when the sun isn’t shining. The Ultra Blue version, meanwhile, is considerably more powdery, flirty and summery. Jaguar invites you to dive into different seas of what usually tops the list of people’s favorite list of colors and other designers are following suit. Take Ferrari, whose LaFerrari is absolutely crazy in a slick matte blue.

    Nitro, orange and baby blue are just a few hues being embraced by luxury marques. In line with aspirational values that dominate purchasing decisions, these hues are the perfect match for car buyers who aren’t shy about the success they have achieved. The good news is that the wider gamut of colors is prevalent in more affordable markets as well, meaning we will soon be seeing life on the highway in a more colorful, original light.
