Lamborghini's New SC20 Open roof track car designed by Centro Stile released

22nd December 2020
"It is powered by Lamborghini's flagship 6.5-litre V12 engine."

New one-off projects of Lamborghini, Lamborghini Squadra Corse have officially released which is engineered by the motorsport department and designed by Centro Stile in Sant'Agata Bolognese. It is the second one-off project after the SC18 for Lamborghini's racing arm. 

The new Lamborghini SC20 is a unique specimen that is designed following the customer's wishes and has an open-top track car type-approved for road use. The open-roof track car takes its styling leads from the Diablo VT Roadster, Aventador J, Veneno Roadster, and Concept S.

"Two years after the SC18 Alston, the SC20 was a new, intriguing challenge. The chief sources of inspiration were the Diablo VT Roadster, Aventador J, Veneno Roadster, and Concept S, and the result is a dramatic combination of creativity and racing attitude," said Mitja Borkert, Head of Design Lamborghini Centro Stile.

The carbon fiber body features racing aerodynamics which is smoothly done by the hand of Lamborghini's aerodynamic engineers to deliver optimal airflow for both performance and the cockpit's occupants. The muscular rear is topped by a large carbon fiber wing that can be set in three different positions - low, medium, and high load. The exterior body of the car is painted in white color, as specified by the customer with Blu Cepheus (blue) livery giving a prominent look.

Also, the same shade is found on the inside along with black and white colors. The SC20 gets visible carbon fiber on the dashboard cover, rear wall, door panels, center console, and steering wheel trim. The company has also used carbon fiber for the shells of the seats upholstered in Alcantara and leather. Whereas the door handles are machined from solid aluminum while the air vents are crafted using 3D printing technology.

"The SC20 is a combination of sophisticated engineering, Italian craftsmanship, sportiness, and advanced design. It is also an example of applying our V12 engine and carbon fiber to a radical open-top vehicle that unmistakably carries the Lamborghini DNA." Said Maurizio Reggiani, Chief Technical Officer of Automobili Lamborghini.

It comes powered by Lamborghini's flagship 6.5-litre V12 engine that is tuned to make 759 bhp of power at 8,500 rpm and 720 Nm of torque at 6,750 rpm. The motor is mated to a seven-speed Independent Shifting Rod (ISR) gearbox. The power is transmitted to all the wheels via a four-wheel-drive system with a central electronic differential. This roofless beast rides on the Pirelli PZero Corsa tyres that are mounted on 20-inches wheels on the front and 21-inches at the rear.

Lamborghini Huracan STO has finally launched

8th December 2020
"The Lamborghini Huracan STO is a road-legal race car."

An official replacement for the Huracan Performant, Lamborghini Huracan STO has recently debuted. The STO in the name stands for Super Trofeo Omologata, which essentially implies that the car is a road-legal version of Squadra Corse's race cars based on the V10 machine. The new Huracan STO is 43 kilograms lighter when compared to the Performance. And that is mainly because has carbon fiber is used for more than 75 percent of the bodywork by Lamborghini. The windscreen alone is 20 percent lighter than that of its predecessor, and the total dry weight of the Huracan STO is a remarkable 1,339 kilograms.

Pictorially, the Lamborghini HSTO is possibly one of the most radical-looking Huracans yet. The supercar runs on a set of 20-inch magnesium wheels wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza tires which come in road and track configurations. Upfront, the car gets the signature sweptback LED headlamps with the W-shape LED daytime running lamps with orange highlights on the bonnet and front bumper with black diffuser. The hood lid has an air scoop for better cooling. At the back, you have a large spoiler with orange accents, along with sleek LED taillamps, high-mounted dual exhaust pipes, and a rear diffuser. Thanks to the adjustable spoiler the aerodynamic efficiency have increased by 37 percent, and the car has 53 percent more downforce over the Huracan Performante.
