Lamborghini Revuelto upgraded with $134,925 carbon components

American company 1016 Industries has once again shown why it is a leader in the production of precision-engineered carbon fiber components. Its latest projects are two carbon fiber body kits for the Lamborghini Revuelto, the Carbon Aero Program and the Vision Widebody.

The Carbon Aero Program, which transforms the design of the car to a new level, includes a front lip, front upper lip, drl surrounds, vented front fenders, door blades, race hood, mirror covers, side skirts, side intake vents, rear diffuser, active rear spoiler, fixed race spoiler, roof scoop, and roof scoop fin. All parts are available in forged carbon fiber, standard carbon fiber, and fiber-reinforced polymer.

The Vision Widebody features flared front and rear wheel arches, carbon side components, and a racing carbon fin that connects the roof opening to a new fixed rear wing. It should be noted that all components are easy to install and do not require body modifications.

The Lamborghini Revuelto is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine combined with three electric motors for a total of 1,015 horsepower. This hybrid system not only enhances performance but also improves fuel efficiency and reduces emissions, making the Revuelto a more environmentally conscious choice in the world of supercars.

When it comes to price, the Vision Widebody can be ordered with all components only at a price of $29,995 in carbon, or $32,995 in forged carbon fiber. Those who opt for all components will have to pay a whopping $134,925 for forged carbon or $122,025 for carbon fiber.

Thieves stole 300,000 euros worth of parts from ABT Sportsline

German tuner ABT Sportsline is known for some of the best sports car upgrades, especially for Audi cars and the related primary Volkswagen Group brands. However, popularity also has its downsides. Recently, an unknown group of thieves stole car parts worth 300,000 euros.

Several photos have been published showing the thieves removing the rims and expensive carbon-ceramic brakes from parked cars. According to Daniel Abt, the thieves targeted seven cars in total, and the company believes that this could not have been done by amateurs, because the power supply and lighting were disabled before the theft. The police are currently investigating the case.

One of the cars from which the thieves stole the expensive forged rims and carbon-ceramic brakes is an Audi RS6. ABT believes that these parts will be sold on the black market.

Obviously, ABT Sportsline should have better security.
