In grand reveal at Monterey Car Week, Lamborghini unveiled its latest concept car, the Lanzador, providing captivating glimpse into the future of the luxury automaker. Set to be the fourth model in Lamborghini's lineup by 2028, the Lanzador exemplifies the brand's commitment to decarbonization and electrification and aligning with its forward looking Direzione Cor Tauri strategy unveiled in 2021.
The Lanzador introduces innovative Gran Turismo 2+2 concept marrying rebellious and futuristic aesthetics with Lamborghini's unmistakable DNA. The result is design that exudes uncompromising charisma and sportiness, catering to new generation of tech-savvy customers. Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, emphasizes the Lanzador's role in creating a new car segment, the Ultra GT, promising driving experience that is quintessentially Lamborghini, thanks to groundbreaking technologies.
Under the hood or rather, beneath the sleek exterior, the Lanzador boasts two electric motors—one for each axle—delivering exceptional all wheel drive experience. This powerhouse provides efficiency across various driving conditions, surfaces, and styles, with peak power exceeding an impressive one megawatt.
For truly personalized driving experience, the Lanzador allows the driver to independently adjust control systems while on the road through controls on the sports steering wheel. This feature actively modifies the car's behavior, empowering drivers to create their individual profiles and ensuring an unprecedented emotional connection with the vehicle.
The Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata (LDVI) takes the driving dynamics control system to new heights, setting benchmarks for both concept and production cars. LDVI grants drivers unparalleled freedom of customization, allowing them to tailor active control systems to suit their driving preferences.
Active Aerodynamics plays crucial role in the Lanzador's performance, optimizing aerodynamic efficiency in different driving modes. This technology enables precise regulation of airflow, enhancing range in Urban mode and increasing downforce in Performance mode.
The Lanzador's adaptability extends beyond its dynamic capabilities. Thanks to its steerable rear axle and air suspension, the car seamlessly adjusts to any surface and driver-defined settings, which can be modified swiftly via steering wheel controls while on the road.
Lamborghini isn't just revolutionizing exteriors, the Lanzador hints at forthcoming styling solutions for both interior and exterior. The interior promises an entirely new experience in terms of spaciousness and comfort, embodying Lamborghini's Feel like a pilot" approach.
Inside the cabin, drivers and passengers find themselves in a truly futuristic space. The ergonomic environment features a light, slim control panel that allows active modification of the car's behavior while driving. Sustainable materials, including merino wool and regenerated carbon fiber, showcase Lamborghini's commitment to reducing environmental impact without compromising luxury. Even non-visible plastic elements, such as the foam in sports seats, are made from 3D-printed recycled fibers.
The Lanzador represents significant milestone in Lamborghini's journey towards electrification and decarbonization. This concept car is pivotal part of the brand's broad strategy to reduce CO2 emissions and embrace a more sustainable vision for the future. As Lamborghini actively works to electrify its entire range, the Lanzador stands as testament to the brand's dedication to performance, cutting-edge technologies and exclusive design and leadership in the luxury automotive sector.
In embracing future of electrification, Lamborghini ensures that the heart and soul of its vehicles remain true to the brand's legacy, promising an electrifying blend of power and emotion and innovation. The Lanzador, with its visionary design and cutting-edge technology, is set to carve out an exciting path for Lamborghini in the rapidly evolving landscape of the automotive industry.
