2019 Lamborghini Lambo V12 Vision Grand Turismo Concept Unveiled (photos)
The Description
The Lamborghini Lambo V12 Vision Grand Turismo is a fighting jet in the disguise of a sports car! Certainly, it’s for the Grand Turismo racing tracks rather than regular roads and tracks.
The Lambo V12 Vision Gran Turismo has made its debut!. Ahead of the World Finals of the 2019 FIA Certified Gran Turismo Championships in Monte Carlo Monaco this weekend. Experience the ‘fun to drive’ in the iconic racing game Gran Turismo Sport for Sony PlayStation 4, where it will be virtually available from spring 2020.
Automakers have standards and go through a series of testing. Yet you wonder how this beautiful beast got to pass all of it, from the emission standards, crash-testing, speed limits to mention a few.
The single-seater is the handiwork of Lamborghini Centro Stile in Sant’Agata Bolognese, the company’s Italian design studio. Existing and classic themes from the Lamborghini history books are clearly evident, as the focus on a single centerline to guide the car’s silhouette. However, extreme aerodynamics play just as significant a part.
The main body is isolated from the fenders, while there’s a vast rear wing for down-force. It also integrates the Y-taillight design, and there are Y-signature front and rear clusters too, as on Lamborghini production vehicles. The automaker says that the hexagon-inspired side window there is a nod back to the classic 1968 Lamborghini Marzal. A thoroughly modern Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 drivetrain – a hybrid V12 with 819 horsepower – is under the bodywork.
The Interior
Inside, the driver finds all their controls mounted on the racing-style steering wheel. Obviously back in the real world, it will be a more humdrum game controller doing the heavy lifting. Lamborghini’s vision is a yoke-like wheel with various buttons, knobs, and embedded displays.
Rather than traditional instrumentation, Lamborghini envisages the Lambo V12 Vision Gran Turismo driver using a virtual display. All the graphics and metrics would be projected in front, over the top of the track itself, allowing them to never look away from their racing line.
Rather than anything so mundane as climbing into the racer via side doors, Lamborghini says that the driver will clamber in at the front like a jet fighter pilot. Hopefully one that is feeling flexible.
For Lamborghini, it’s an opportunity to try out some new design ideas. Free of the need to think about cost balances or practicality. It’s not the first automaker to succumb to the temptation in recent months. Last month, Jaguar showed off its seductive new all-electric super-car. The Jaguar Vision GT Coupé, which is also headed to Gran Turismo.
The Lamborghini Lambo V12 Vision Gran Turismo will arrive in the game from Spring 2020, the automaker says. Sadly for those of us hoping to take a ride in real life, it doesn’t look like that’s ever going to happen.
