Lamborghini Sesto Elemento

Consider it to be Supercar Rehab. Whatever it is Lambo want you to stop obsessing about the kilowatts and recalibrate your synapses around something else: The power to weight ratio.The sesto Elemento is a good place to start this process.It power to weight ratio is approximately 419Kw per tonne.That is not a car, that is a ballistic missile.Sesto Elemento consist almost entirely of carbon fiber and weight just 999Kg. Given that it runs the Gallardo superleggera's power train direct injection 5.2 liter V10 ,four wheel drive and all and that's seriously impressive figure.

Sesto Elemento by the way mean sixth element which is according to the periodic table, happen to the carbon.This car also a proper runner and Lambo claim that it will get to 100km/h in 2.5 second. That is same as a veyron,which has getting on for twice as much power but also weight twice as much.

The company claims that it is currently the only car maker in the world to have nailed every aspect of the process in 3D design, simulation and validation ,through to production and testing.The sesto Elemento 's structure is all about reduction and integration .Its monocoque uses forged composition technology, which Lambo claims is a first in the automotive sector.This process take material with short carbon fibers ad hot-presses them in a mould.The front sub frame and crash boxes are connected to this single-piece passenger cell, and they are carbon fibre too. The front and rear body shell component are also manufactured in a single piece, which the engineers call cofango, a frankly unnecessary contraction of the Italian for bonnet(cofano) and wing (parafango).Quick release fasteners mean that these can be swiftly removed.

This wishbones are carbon fibre. Of the major structural areas ,only the rear sub-frame where the engine is mounted and the suspension points on the rear axle are made of aluminium.The prop shaft is made of CFRP, and does away with a central joint, and the wheel rims are carbon.Nestling behind them are carbon ceramic brake discs.The exhaust tailpipes are made of something called pyrosic, which is an advanced glass ceramic composite with high heat resistance.Even the doors have a minimalist structure and feature just two pieces bonded together to create a single unit.Titanium-alloy screw fastening help pare weight back elsewhere. In other words, the sesto Elemento is not so much a car as an entire ideology.
