Watch How Lamborghini LP740 is Born [VIDEO]

We usually do not comment on advertisements but when we do, this means that we were impressed by what we have seen. The case with the ad reviewed here is the same and I must admit that it is very rare for me to be left speechless after watching any kind of commercial. But it is exactly what the director Alessandro Pacciani commercial did to me.

In short, the video depicts the birth of Aventador LP740. And what happens in it is a vivid depiction that in the beginning were only ashes coming from an active volcano. Then the metal used for the construction of the LP740 was melted via lava coming out from the depths of Earth.

It seems that even the rubbers were made from lava. At last everything is slowly taking form and result in this speechless representation of the lively Lamborghini car. By the end of this short but very emotional film, we see the LP740 in its full form and function.

The viewer is left in the company of the impeccable presence of the Aventador, which accelerates effortlessly in some sort of tunnel. Speaking of acceleration this car is capable of a lot.

Precisely, this vehicle is unstoppable and can take your breath away with a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 3 seconds. All this coming from the Aventador’s 6.5 liter V12 engine that produces exactly 740 hp as the name of the supercar shows. But enough talk, it’s time for show:

Lamborghini Aventador LP750-4 Superveloce: Lighter and More Powerful [VIDEO]

Yes, it is an Aventador, it is a SuperVeloce and it is a pure Lambo. Our expectations proved right since this is the model we predicted that it’s going to debut in Geneva. Lamborghini says that the Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce is an expression of the purest essence of company’s super sports car. And this is why: first of all the vehicle is powered by the enhanced 6.5 liter V12 unit, which is capable of producing 750 horsepower (552 kW) at 8.400rpm. And since the car has reduced by 50 kg weight compared to its siblings, this means a power-to-weight-ratio of 2,03 kg/hp.

But the most impressive thing about these “simple” numbers (Bugatti beware) is that the Superveloce accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds! The top speed is more than 350 km/h (more than 217 mph). Variable Valve Timing and Variable Intake System have been improved in order to deliver better torque. Hence, the result is a maximum torque of 690 Nm (509 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm.

Inside, the car has received some updates too. The focus here is again on weight reduction, which is visible via the new sports bucket seats and the door panels made of carbon. Due to weight saving issues this model excludes an infotainment system, carpets and some other parts. How about the instrument cluster? As you can see it is entirely new and features TFT screen with RPM shifting- and a G-force indicator.

New is also the Lamborghini‘s pushrod suspension system that was introduced to this model and the electromechanical Dynamic Steering (LDS), as well as the lightweight forged rims in matt black. They come in the size of 20 inches at the front and 21 inches at the rear and are fitted with Pirelli P Zero Corsa sports tires.

Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 will be exclusively launched in Rosso Bia exterior color complemented by a black Alcantara-infused interior. The company will offer five other colors which are further to be announced.

There are far too many details since almost everything in this car was optimized. However, what is really captivating is that the company has created its fastest and most reactive car. And for those interested in buying one, well you have to spare around 327,190 Euros on the standard model. At last, we must mention that the car will have a market debut this spring.

Mansory Unleashes 838 HP Lamborghini Huracan

The tuners at Mansory have surprised us with a very special project. As they say, they have refined the Huracán to the highest level. Shortly before the official debut of the car in Geneva, the specialists gave us the first glimpse of the refining program for the Lambo model. The pictures clearly show that the vehicle has been widened and now has more purposeful stance.

The bodywork program differs significantly from the standard series vehicle. There are design elements such as the exclusive daytime driving lights and carbon wing mirrors. The new front, rear bumper and side skirts have all been shaped and cured under high pressure and high temperatures in an autoclave using high-tech carbon materials.

This method provides better acceleration, stopping distances and fuel consumption. Furthermore, in combination with the diffuser, the wing profile design delivers more downforce on the rear axle.

Moreover, Mansory has also implemented a power program for this Lamborghini. The upgrades include a high-performance exhaust manifold and muffler, a single Turbo, a new fuel pressure control, new intake manifold fuel injectors and optimised electronic engine and transmission management.

The result is impressive: the total output is now 838 hp (625 kW) at 8,200 rpm compared to the production 602 hp (449 kW) at 8,250 rpm.

The torque has become also bigger, growing from 560 Nm (413 lb-ft) at 6,500 to 780 Nm (576 lb-ft) at 5,300 rpm. The maximum speed has been also modified and it is now 330 km/h. This power kit allows the Huracán to sprint from zero to 100 in just 2.9 seconds.

Distinctive alloy wheels are the next thing to be said about this project. The front wheel tire size combination 9×20 inches and 245/30ZR20, while the rear – 12,5×21 inches and 325/25ZR21.

The interior is adorned by new leather seats and dashboard. For the perfect design they have been finished with contrasting stitching. Newly designed airbag sports steering wheel, pedals made of aluminium and carbon fiber elements complete this tuning project.

DMC Teases new Lambo Lineup Ahead of Geneva Debut

It took exactly five years for the luxury tuning company DMC to be accepted to join the renowned Geneva Motor Show. The good new is that this year the visitors of the famous car exhibit will have the opportunity to “meet” the brand and get to know its work better. As a matter of fact, if one company wants to join the prestigious exhibitions, it can’t just simply give money for a booth. To be accepted, the company needs to have professional background, and most important history.

So this basically means that addition of DMC to the auto salon in Switzerland signifies that it has already joined an elite level of brands. For the show is where the top players of the industry showcase their annual developments.

And to get us all heated up of the most important event, DMC specialists have just released a first teaser image, showing part of their line up. We are almost sure that we are going to see an all Lambo set-up, which will have a possible Stage2 Huracan kit.

We have already seen the Lambo which is going to be featured in the event, so we aren’t quite sure whether there is to be a new project, or the already presented one. The DMC Lamborghini Huracan has a rear wing with an additional base spoiler under it. The latter is stronger and more reliable on the inside.

The interior design of the Huracan was also refined and now features fine leathers and carbon fiber components. There are also a lot of buttons and trims as well as redesigned steering wheel that come as additional packages.

During Geneva Motor Show, DMC will also present the new rims in the lineup. They will come in a 20″/21″ setup and are considered to be the widest sets in the market so far.

On the teaser image we also see silver Lamborghini Countach, but we aren’t sure we are to see it at company’s stand at the show.

DMC Lamborghini Huracan is Already TUV-approved

Safety, high-quality and class have always been among the top priorities for DMC. Always showing the best of their skills, the tuning experts know what’s missing in the style of a certain automobile and, therefore, manage to add it. Thanks to the excellent craftsmanship of the luxury tuner, different Lamborghini models and other sport cars have received some of the best enhancement packages ever.

Now, the TUV in Germany has tested DMC’s carbon fiber and stated that it is not only safe and reliable but “extremely strong” as well. Thirty samples from DMC were received and were set to undergo quality, integrity and strength tests. But why is this so important?

In order to explain the significance of this matter, let’s take DMC Lamborghini Huracan as an example. Its rear wing arrives with another base spoiler under it but if you wanted to install any after-market wing on the regular Huracan base spoiler, there is a huge chance it might be ripped off when driving at high speeds. And you really wouldn’t like this to happen, right? Since the material of the original part is fragile and too light, an additional wing on top would turn into a disaster. BUT! The team of professional at DMC didn’t simply model their base spoiler after the original. What they also did was tweaking it so it could be stronger and more reliable on the inside.

The refined interior design of this Lamborghini Huracan features Italian fine leathers and carbon fiber components. There are also a lot of buttons and trims that come as a small package and to make things even more interesting. The already redesigned steering wheel can be reworked once again for the VIP package.

Future owners, enthusiasts and fans can see the DMC Huravan in its TUV approved splendor during Geneva Motor Show. There, the tuning company will also present their new rims which come in a 20″/21″ setup. They are considered to be the widest sets in the market so far.

Liberty Walk gives the car a set of new multi-spoke black alloys, while a tweaked suspension might be included too. There are no other details regarding the Liberty Walk Lamborghini Huracan but we expect it to be equipped with a custom exhaust system too which should happily fill your ears with the sound of extreme power.

Nevertheless, one thing is for sure – the tuned Lamborghini Huracan will be able to offer more than just an amazing driving experience, while providing an even greater breadth of dynamic capability.

DMC Lamborghini Teddy Bear Edition

We all know about the eccentricity of China. After all, there are plenty of bizarre things to see there. Like crocodiles ready for roasting, as well as frogs and turtles… and dried reptile parts sold in Chinese supermarkets. The country also presented to the world Conchita Wurst. No, I’m taking that last one back. It wasn’t China. But still, now it wows the streets of Dalian with a quite strange Lamborghini: Teddy Bear Edition (ha-ha) !

One of the proudest and most sophisticated models tuned by DMC, Lamborghini Aventador, has been spotted with a giant teddy bear on its roof in the city of Dalian, China. The reason why is unknown but it definitely succeeded in capturing people’s attention!

To recap briefly the specifics of the DMC Lamborghini Aventador, it arrives in three versions: Spezial, Molto Veloce and Edition GT. All of the three variants feature new front and rear bumpers with enormous splitter and diffuser featuring a one-of-a-kind design. There are also side skirts, refined side vents, and an optional rear wing made from carbon fiber. The supercar takes advantage of unique 20-inch front and 21-inch rear Dione alloy wheels with orange brake calipers. In addition to this, the tuning company can provide its customers with an individualized interior and engine enhancements which boost the power up to 900 HP. Not bad, right?

Now that I’m thinking, it might be the year of the great bear in China. Who knows…

Lamborghini and Pirelli Celebration Feast is Called Aventador LP 700-4 Pirelli Edition

Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Pirelli Edition is new special series model which was designed in order to celebrate the collaboration between the Italian luxury brand and the Pirelli tire manufacturer. Their partnership began back in 1963, when Lamborghini brand was founded. This means that since birth, the luxury car have been equipped with Pirelli tires. The super sports car is built on carbon fiber monocoque, driven by the V12 engine, and equipped with pushrod suspensions and all-wheel drive.

Outside, the Lambo is finished in a two-tone color scheme, which is offered in two options.

These include Giallo Spica, Rosso Mars, Bianco Isis, Nero Aldebaran, Grigio Liqueo, and Grigio Ater.

The second one is glossy black used for the upper parts of the car and the air intakes, combined with four matte finishes for the rest of the exterior: Bianco Canopus, Nero Nemesis, Grigio Adamas, and Grigio Titans.

Something very distinctive in this car is the thin red stripe that runs along the roof and the engine hood, the rearview mirrors, and the outer profiles of the air intakes. To harmonize with this, the Pirelli logo is in red. The exterior also received transparent engine hood, engine compartment in carbon, glossy black Dione 20”/21”rims as well as P Zero tires with red logo and red calipers.

Inside, the car is upholstered with black Alcantara with red contrast stitching. The same red stripe theme is repeated on the inside and runs along the interior ceiling and seats. It also includes Lamborghini and Pirelli crests embroidered in red.

Reiter Engineering Prepares Powerful Gallardo Extenso for Blancpain GT Series

Reiter Engineering has plans to enter new racecar in the Blancpain GT Series, the US Pirelli World Challenge and the SRO GT Sports Club. The car is based on Lamborghini’s model Gallardo and it has received a comprehensive facelift, after which it is proudly called “Extenso”. At the back, the car seems significantly wider: the rear has received carbon fibre rear quarter panels. In addition, the track width of the rear axle was extended by 13 cm thanks to the utilization of the new wishbones. The result is a total width of 205 cm and of course – better handling.

The torque curve was improved via race camshafts, while the Mahle pistons reduce fuel consumption and increase reliability. At the front we see new front headlights, but at the rear there are new tail lights and considerably wider carbon rear.

At last, but not least we must mention the sound of this Lambo, which stands at the top of the new specifications along with the visual packaging.

Reiter Engineering also disclosed that they will focus clearly on the performance levels which are to be expected for 2016 and beyond. And due to the exemplary history of the company that includes over 100 cars built, over 200 race wins and more than 400 podium results, the redesign of the Gallardo GT3 is a strategic move.

The specialists will create only 10 Reiter Gallardo Extenso for customers. Depending on thei personal taste, the vehicles can be manufactured in “Carbon-Black” or “Titanium-Grey”. If the first is hosen, then the entire skin will be left in carbon-black except for the Aluminium doors and the roof skin. In the other case, the titanium-grey impresses with its aggressive military appeal.

DMC Strikes Again with the New Huracan AFFARI

DMC tuning company has been actively involved in tuning the beasts produced by Lamborghini for many years now. Its strong passion for renewing and improving a certain model results in outlining enhanced super-cars which really can blow your mind. DMC final products can be seen as a piece of art all of which stand out with their individuality and assertiveness and just point at themselves saying: “Look at us and beat us if you can!”

When it comes to Lamborghini vehicles, DMC really knows how to break in and subordinate this wild animal. Now the tuning company turns out to be the first to show a complete body kit, wheels and performance package for the brand new Huracan Affari.

The new styling kit created by DMC offers a phenomenal front fascia which is comprised of 2 spoiler lips and unique wide body extensions with aero-swords. The integrated side skirt diffusers have the role to deliver better overall aerodynamics which are supported by the brand-new rear diffusor. The biggest and most notable enhancement of the package is the new rear wing spoiler that is placed on a re-engineered deck lid. The wing can be set to three different angles. By doing this, it provides the driver with a number of custom settings which vary from hard to soft. All of the components are made of carbon fiber.

The Green Goblin, uh, I mean the new DMC Lamborghini Huracan Affari has a boosted power of 630 PS due to the optimized engine electronics, an electronic load pressure control system and a brand new Exhaust system.

The tuner gives this Lamborghini new forged alloy wheels which stabilize and secure the car on the road. Precisely, the DMC rims come in a 20″/21″ setup. The front receives a technical set up of 20×8,5J while the rear showcases specs of 21x12J. Finally, DMC is going to use a 245/30r20 / 325/25r21 tire combination with a softer P-Zero application available too.

The finishing touch is the refined interior which is polished with Italian fine leather and carbon fiber materials.

SR Auto and DXSC Release Exclusive Aventador “Guardian of the Galaxy”

I’ve never seen more beautiful Aventador Roadster in my life! Honestly! And although I personally prefer a more minimalistic design, this “Guardians Of The Galaxy” inspired Lambo just took my mind. The tuners behind this project are two talented companies: the Vancouver super car club DXSC and SR Auto Group. They have given an allover galaxy wrap job to the car, making it wilder and more exceptionally attractive than ever. This tuning literally goes above and beyond Earth’s atmosphere!

This Aventador not only wears one of the most unique wraps I have ever seen up to date, but it also runs on a set of wheels that balance out the whole theme of the car. Landing on the galaxy was a set of ADV005 TS SL in a staggered fitment of 21×9 and 22×12 inches. They are in matte black color and feature gloss tint lip.

In fact, the wrapping technique didn’t really take much of my attention so far. But this galactic Lamborghini shows how a single foil and a set of wheels can be really worth of making it through to the news all over the world.

Unfortunately, except for the pictures and the presented data, there are no words whether the supersports car is further modified or not. And if this Lambo stays with the stock figures, this means that it will be capable of producing 700 horsepower (522 kW) and 690 Nm (511 lb-ft) of torque from its 6.5 liter naturally aspirated V12 engine.

The unit is coupled with a seven-speed ISR transmission sending the power to an AWD system. The 0-100 km/h acceleration sprint is covered in 3.0 seconds, while the 0-200 km/h – in 8.6 seconds. The top speed is positioned at 350 km/h (218 mph).

Underground Racing Shows-Off With Twin Turbo Lamborghini TT Huracan

Lamborghini Huracán LP 610-4 is the latest car released by the emblematic Italian brand. Since it was released almost a year ago it has been the main topic among all sports cars enthusiasts, because the automaker has once again raised the bar with this creation. Huracán LP 610-4 is hidden behind the exceptional looks, but more importantly, behind the appearance lies a variety of new technology used. Such are the AWD system wth electronically controlled front differential similar to this one of the Aventador, electro-mechanical power steering (EPS) and dynamic steering (LDS).

The Huracan is powered by a 5.2 liter naturally aspirated V10 engine which produces 610 horsepower (449 kW) at 8,250RPM and 560 Nm (415 lb-ft) of torque at 6,500RPM. The engine is mated to a 7-speed dual clutch LDF transmission sending the power to a fully electronically controlled four-wheel drive system.

The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is covered in 3.2 seconds, while this from 0 to 193 km/h – in 9.9 seconds. The engine and new transmission are combined with the high definition instrument displays and awesome interior.

And through this year of Huracan existence, we have seen many tunings on the Huracan, and here we are reviewing another on, which we think is worth the attention. Why? Simply because it has made the car even better!

Underground Racing has developed the very first Twin Turbo Lamborghini Huracán LP610-4. Despite the tuners have already successfully conducted the preliminary testing, there are still no technical details about the car.

What we have understood so far is that the car will use a JRR MoTeC M1 electronics and firmware, and will be snapping through the gears of the DCT transmission with the additional horsepower, offering pure experience. The car will be soon available as a bolt-on system. The proceeding stages are already under development and are soon to be announced.
