Concept X
WHAT LAMBORGHINI HAS TO SAY ABOUT THIS CAR: Press Release from Lamborghini At the Geneva Motor Show, the House of the Raging Bull will present a new design study that renews a great Lamborghini tradition. Like the 350 GTS and the Miura Roadster before it, the Lamborghini “Concept S” is a unique car, an extreme and spectacular expression of the Lamborghini brand. Created at the Centro Stile Lamborghini in Sant’Agata Bolognese by Luc Donckerwolke, Head of Lamborghini Design, the “Concept S” is his extreme interpretation of an „open car“. Using the Gallardo as a basis, Donckerwolke drew inspiration from the classic single-seater racing cars of the past to create this latest design study. The classic single-seaters did not have a traditional windscreen, but utilised the so-called „saute-vent“ (in French: a sudden change in the wind) in order to direct air over the head of the driver - and so does the “Concept S”. These devices divide the cabin into two distinct compartments, giving the car an aggressive and futuristic look and also creating a space between them that acts as an additional air inlet for the powerful engine, which is positioned behind the seats. An electronically controlled, retractable central rear view mirror allows the driver - when required - to see what is happening behind the car. The aerodynamics
of the “Concept S” have been optimised thanks to front and
rear spoilers and a large rear diffuser. OUR TAKE ON THE LAMBORGHINI CONCEPT X: The good news: Lamborghi has built an even more aggressive, more powereful, more luxuriously appointed vehicle that utilizes nearly every trick in the book that the house of the raging bull has acquired through its years of domination in the exotic car market. Now for the bad news: You cant buy it. Well not like the majority of us could anyways. RELATED ARTICLES, REVIEWS AND SITES:
