Il kit aerodinamico di Lamborghini Huracán


The all-carbon fibre kit, which costs about the same as a new Ford Mondeo, is made up of a front splitter that runs under and around the front bumper, side skirts that extend into winglets ahead of the car’s rear intakes, a more prominent rear diffuser and a fixed rear wing with upright ends.
The kit has been tested in Lamborghini’s wind tunnel but the car maker isn’t quoting any increases in downforce. Instead, it says the kit is an aesthetic modification only. Because of the kit’s carbon fibre construction, it retails from 26.000 Euros, which is just 171 Euros less than the starting price of a new Mondeo.
Fitment can be handled by official Lamborghini dealerships, where the going rate for hourly labour is about 234 Euros. Lamborghini says it takes between eight and nine hours for the kit to be fitted, so the total bill for purchase and fitment could reach an eye-watering 28.000 Euros.
However, unlike the aerodynamic packages available on the aftermarket, this kit comes with the full approval of Lamborghini. And given that the going rate for a Huracán is about 228.000 Euros, the added exclusivity that the kit brings could make it a highly desirable option.

The use of CFRP can significantly reduce CO2 emissions in transportation, including airplanes and automobiles. However, a lot of CO2s is released during the production of CFRP, and most used and waste materials end up in landfills. With the growing market of CFRP, there is a strong demand for the development of recycling technologies. Toyota Industries have developed technology that aligns recycled carbon fibers from used CFRP into a uniform, consistent yarn, adapting its well-established cotton spinning methods to carbon fiber….
