Lamborghini Lanzador

Lamborghini is grandly announcing the arrival of its first all-electric car as a GT crossover, the Lamborghini Lanzador. it is expected to hit the market in five years, when Lamborghini will join the other major manufacturers.

The Italian automaker describes this model as a GT with high ground clearance. At first, it could be assumed that it is an ordinary crossover, but the design shows that it is not something that a typical crossover offers. The Sesto Elemento, Murcialago and Countach LPI 800-4 models served as inspiration. The front part shows that it is undoubtedly a Lamborghini, while the side and three-quarters of the rear resemble an off-road vehicle. On the other hand, it cannot be confused with the current Lamborghini Urus. It is equipped with active suspension and active aerodynamics

Inside, the cabin resembles a spacecraft, with a focus on sustainability. The materials used are mainly produced in Italy. The thread is made from recycled plastic, while the seat foam and some other parts are made from recycled 3D printed plastic. The carbon fiber used in the interior also contains recycled elements like recycled PET, and even the water used to dye the leather is taken from olive oil plants.

The car offers a lot of space, and the rear doors offer access to a large luggage compartment, which can be increased by folding down the rear seats.

When it comes to the powertrain, there are too many secrets. It is known that it will be powered by two electric motors and will have AWD. The rear axle is equipped with a single form of torque converter. There is also the new Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata (LDVi) driving dynamics control system, and thanks to new sensors, the new technology adapts the car’s dynamics to the driver through a sophisticated algorithm.

Maybe the year 2028 is far away, but if we consider that Lamborghini intends to switch all its models to a hybrid by the end of next year, then the distance of five years is not bad.

Ford Puma EV

Following the competition that pushed the transition to fully electrified cars by the end of the decade, Ford announced last year that it would also offer only electric cars from 2030. One of them is the new Ford Puma EV, which will go into production next year.

The new Ford Puma, one of the most popular sub-compact crossovers in Europe, will not differ much in design compared to the current generation. Small changes will be made to the front end. This means that the headlights will get new graphics, and the radiator grille, unlike the gasoline model, will probably remain closed due to aerodynamics.

With the all-electric Puma, Ford is trying to attract fans of B-segment crossovers. But unlike the Explorer, the electric Puma should not be based on the MEB, but instead use Ford’s electric car platform. The car is currently on the platform of the “Global B” group, which will probably be upgraded to accommodate new engines.

When it comes to engine power, it is assumed to have 134 hp (99 kW), as its van sibling. Ford currently offers engines with 181 hp (133 kW) and 265 hp (195 kW), but it is unlikely that any of them will be used in the Ford Puma. However, it is most important for Ford to keep up with the competition in terms of autonomy, so it will have to use at least a 55 kW battery. Therefore, a WLTP range of around 400 kilometers must be possible so that the target group does not choose the competition.

2025 Pininfarina B95

The Pininfarina B95 is a new expensive car from the luxury electric vehicle manufacturer with roots in the Italian car design firm Pininfarina SpA. It is a limited edition open-air two-seater that will be produced in only 10 copies.

The car uses a powertrain from the model Battista, which means it is powered by four electric motors with a total output of 1,877 hp (1,380 kW) and 1,726 lb-ft (2,340Nm) of torque. That’s enough power to push this supercar to 62 mph in just 1.86 seconds, 124 mph in 4.76 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph (350 km/h). It is equipped with a 120 kWh battery that charges from 20 to 80 percent in 25 minutes.

The car in the photo is finished in a gray shade of Bronzo Superga with contrasting Gialo Arneis details. It sits on 20-inch front and 21-inch rear forged aluminum wheels in matte black, behind which are hidden yellow brake calipers.

It’s equipped with carbon elements, and what makes the B95 unique compared to other Speedsters and Barchettes we’ve seen over the years is the fact that the driver and front passenger have unique and electrically adjustable small windshields, which are inspired by old fighter planes and made of transparent polycarbonate with exposed aluminum supports. The driver’s and passenger’s seats can be easily raised and lowered as desired and needed.

The interior of the car is just as spectacular as the exterior. Upon entering the cockpit, the carbon dashboard, designed as a floating wing, immediately attracts attention. The seats are upholstered in Tan Sustainable Luxury Leather, which also covers the dashboard, while the headrests are upholstered in Pied de Poule Houndstooth Luxury Textile material with black and white elements.

The Pininfarina B95 goes into production in 2025, when the company celebrates its 95th anniversary, and the price is also known. Each copy will cost €4.4 million.
