Lamborghini reventon

nterior Lamborghini

The instrument panel in the Reventón comprises three TFT liquid crystal displays (LCDs) with two different display modes. The instruments are housed in a structure milled from a solid aluminium block, protected by a carbon fiber casing. The car's instrumentation includes a "G-Force-Meter" which displays the magnitude and direction of the g-forces acting upon the car. The seats of the Reventón are black leather and brown Alcantara.

Exterior

The Reventón features an all-new carbon fiber exterior. All Reventóns have the same exterior color, described as "mid opaque grey without the usual shine."

Lamborghini has also picked up some of parent company Audi's design language. It is the first Lamborghini to incorporate daylight running lights into the headlamps. Seven light-emitting diodes (LEDs) at each headlamp flank the bi-Xenon main beam and stay lit whenever the car is in movement. Due to the high temperatures in the rear lower part of the car, special heatproof LEDs are used for the indicator and hazard lights, stoplights and rear lights with a triple arrow optical effect.

Production

The first car went to Lamborghini of Las Vegas.

On November 21, 2008, Lamborghini announced the delivery of the last Lamborghini Reventón to a British customer of the official Midlands dealer, Lamborghini Birmingham. However, CarsUK's later report disputed the official claim, and revealed that the car #20 was delivered to Lamborghini Houston, as were two other cars.

Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A.,[Notes 1] commonly referred to as Lamborghini (pronounced [lamborˈgiːni] ( listen)), is an Italian automaker. The company was founded by manufacturing magnate Ferruccio Lamborghini in 1963, with the objective of producing a refined grand touring car to compete with established offerings from marques like Ferrari.

The company's first models were released in the mid-1960s, and were noted for their refinement, power, and comfort. Lamborghini gained wide acclaim in 1966 for the Miura sports coupé, which established mid-engine design as the standard layout for high-performance cars of the era. After a decade of rapid growth, hard times befell the company in the mid-1970s, as sales plunged in the wake of the 1973 world financial downturn and oil crisis. After going through bankruptcy and three changes in ownership, Lamborghini came under the corporate umbrella of the Chrysler Corporation in 1987. The American company failed to return the automaker to profitability and sold it to Indonesian interests in 1994. Lamborghini's lack of success continued through the 1990s, until the company was sold in 1998 to Audi, a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, a German automotive concern. Audi's ownership marked the beginning of a period of stability and increased productivity for Lamborghini, with sales increasing nearly tenfold over the course of the 2000s, peaking in record sales in 2007 and 2008. The world financial crisis in the late 2000s negatively affected luxury car makers worldwide, and saw Lamborghini's sales drop back to pre-2006 levels.

Assembly of Lamborghini cars continues to take place at the automaker's ancestral home in Sant'Agata Bolognese, where engine and automobile production lines run side-by-side at the company's single factory. Fewer than 3,000 cars roll off the production line each year. The company currently offers two variations of a single model, the V10-powered Gallardo coupé and roadster. The flagship V12-powered Murciélago coupé and roadster were discontinued at the end of 2010, with a successor expected in 2011.

Jaguar XK150

If you are looking for a classic car that bears the mark of the fierce Jaguar, one car that truly qualifies is the Jaguar XK150, a sports car produced between 1957 and 1961. What makes this Jaguar a classic is that it was a radically modernized car, making it well ahead of its time. Some of its design features even exist on modern cars nowadays, a true sign of a classic, considering that it was first produced some 50 years ago. Jaguar is a well known maker of stylish and powerful cars, and the XK150 is proof of this car making standard. This article will walk you through some of the basic features of the Jaguar XK150, so you'll know why it was able to transcend time.

Design-wise, the XK150 was indeed ahead of its competitors. It is very modern for a 1950s or 60s car, with a one piece windscreen that replaced the old looking split screen. The wing line also no longer drooped much over the doors. The bonnet was also widened, and opened down to the wing.

The Jaguar XK150 is indeed a powerful beast on the highway. Under the hood, it is fitted with a 3.4 liter DOHC Jaguar straight-6 engine, which is rated at 180 horse power. Some models were even fitted with a modified cylinder head with lager exhaust valves, capable of producing 210 bhp at 5500 rpm. Another automotive engineering first that appeared in the Jaguar XK150 is the four-wheel Dunlop 12-inch disc brakes, though it was also possible to order the same car fitted with drums. The suspension and chassis of the XK150 is similar to its predecessor, the Jaguar XK140. Despite the success of the XK150, production was halted in the latter part of 1960s, and overall, over 8000 vehicles were produced.

In terms of performance, a Jaguar XK150s fixed head coupe was tested in 1959. It was able to attain a top speed of 132 mph or 212 kmph and could accelerate for zero to 60 mph in just 7.8 seconds. This is truly a great power, considering that not a lot of cars at that time could attain these figures of the XK150. At the time of testing, it was the fastest closed car that was ever subjected to a full road test. In terms of fuel consumption, the XK150 was able to log in a mileage of 22.0 miles per imperial gallon, or in modern measurements, around 18.3 mpg. This is considerably fuel efficient, despite the power that it keeps under its hood.
