Exclusive Lamborghini SC20
By
Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. is an Italian supercar
manufacturer headquartered in Sant'Agata Bolognese. It is owned by Audi AG. And
although quite recently there was some talk that the German concern is going to
get rid of the Italian brand with one of the most recognizable car logos in the world, these rumors are not
confirmed yet.
Today Lamborghini is one of the leaders among
manufacturers of supercars, which presented to the world impressive cars and
innovative concept cars. Cars of the brand cannot be confused with others, they
are positioned as aggressive and masculine cars for the chosen ones.
Lamborghini has unveiled the SC20 supercar, and it is
not just another special edition of the iconic Aventador that will be produced
in limited editions. SC20 was designed and produces in a single copy, by
special order of a secret customer.
"The SC20 is a combination of sophisticated
engineering, Italian craftsmanship, sportiness, and
cutting-edge design. It is also an example of using our V12 engine and carbon
fiber in a radical open-top car that unmistakably carries the Lamborghini
DNA," says Maurizio
Reggiani.
The exclusive car was the continuation of the ideas
laid down in the Aventador J and Veneno. And the designers also drew
inspiration from the open Diablo VT Roadster from the 90s. Curiously enough,
the car's front splitter is styled after the track-ready Huracan GT3 EVO, and
the plastic of the sides here is reminiscent of the Essenza SCV12.
Additionally, a carbon-fiber antifender with three settings of the angle of the attack
appeared on the stern of the car. These components are designed to provide high
downforce and optimal aerodynamics.
Even
though the SC20 is
based on the Aventador, all body panels of the new model are unique. Even the
lighting equipment is made specifically for this car.
Technologically, there are not so many differences
from the "donor". It uses a proprietary 6.5-liter V12, working
without a supercharger in the old way. It develops 770 hp at 8500 rpm and 720
Nm at 6750. Seven-speed "robot" and all-wheel drive are preserved.
The interior also shares many similarities with the Aventador, although there
are 3D-printed air deflectors and solid aluminum handles.
Lamborghini SC20 has an exclusive white body paint
"Bianco Fu" and several components of blue color
"Blue Cepheus", which has never been applied to production cars of
the Italian brand. This makes the iconic Lamborghini logo shine even brighter than usual. The front and rear of the open-top two-door are 20- and 21-inch forged aluminum
wheels with central locking.
The carbon fiber body is designed so that the
aerodynamics allows comfortable driving of the roadster without a windshield:
only a tiny transparent fairing is provided at the front and sides.
The interior of the speedster is mainly done in black
but has eye-catching white and blue accents. Other interior features include
unique carbon fiber seats with combined leather and Alcantara trim. The interior of the Lamborghini SC20 also has a decor of carbon
fiber, inserts that decorate the doors, the front panel, the steering
wheel, and the center console. Interestingly, the ventilation deflectors here are made using
3D-printing technology.
