DarwinPro Aerodynamics is a tuner company specialized in making luxury supercar body kits, that takes exotic cars to the next level. Their latest project is the Lamborghini Huracan Evo with BKSSII wide body kit.
This ‘wild’ wide body kit brings carbon fiber components including widened wheel arches for better road holding, new side skirts, front fender vents, new lip spoiler, new diffuser, tailpipes, unique bumper with new air intake shape and a more pronounced splitter. The hood has been replaced with a new one with large air vents, something we’ve seen on the STO model, while out back there’s a new wing also in carbon fiber. One might think that the wing on the STO model is a bit too much for a road car, in this case it gives it a whole new experience.
When it comes to the drivetrain, DarwinPro didn’t change anything. Why would it, when the Lamborghini Huracan Evo is more than a super car. Its naturally aspirated 5.2-L V10 engine with 640 hp (470 kW) at 8,000 rpm and 442 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque at 6,500 rpm is powerful enough to push the 1,422 kg car to 100 km/h in 2 ,9 seconds with a top speed of 325 km/h (202 mph).
Customers can choose from several wide body kit options. A body kit made from a combination of carbon and carbon fiber reinforced plastic costs $30,360, a body kit made only from carbon costs $40,089, while the forged carbon option costs $50,111. The most expensive option includes premium autoclaved carbon fiber and costs $60,133.
Earlier this year, some reports said that the Toyota Supra and BMW Z4 were going to history in 2026. However, the Supra will live on, which cannot be said for the BMW Z4, whose future is in doubt.
“There are no plans to end the Supra brand. As far as I know. BMW is not Toyota. Talk of Supra going away is just speculation. I don’t expect Supra to go away at all. Not at all,” said Toyota Australia President of Sales, Marketing and Operations, Sean Hanley.
The company recently announced that the current generation Supra will participate in the Supercars Championship in Australia in 2026 and that it will be powered by a powerful V8 engine. Hanley confirmed that the race car could outlive the existing road version, and that it would be on the track for years. “Her name has been around for years, there’s a lot of heritage there. It’s a very important brand,” Hanley said.
Hanley hinted that the Supra could undergo major changes in the future, but the question arises as to what that evolution might look like. Either way, it’s important that this car lives on.
In July, Toyota announced that it will withdraw the Supra powered by a four-cylinder engine from 2025. Thus, the Toyota Supra remains only with a turbocharged 3.0-liter 6-cylinder engine with 382 hp (285 kW) and 368 lb-ft (499 Nm) of torque, paired with an automatic or manual transmission. This is enough for the car to reach 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds (automatic gearbox) with an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). The version with manual transmission reaches 100 km/h in 4.4 seconds.
The Ferrari F80 is a new supercar from the Maranello-based company that will be produced from the end of 2025 to 2027, and the price of each of the 799 examples is 3.6 million euros.
The F80 was created at the Ferrari Styling Center in Maranello and features retro headlights inspired by the Daytona model, rear wheel arches reminiscent of the F40, an asymmetric monocoque chassis made of carbon fiber and composite materials, while the roof is completely carbon. It is slightly lower than the LaFerrari and has active aerodynamics that make its rear unique.
Most of the aerodynamic solutions are taken from Formula 1. At the front, there are S-Duct channels that create 450 kg of downforce only on the front axle at a speed of 250 km/h. Thanks to an active wing and a massive 180 cm diffuser, the F80 creates 590 kg of downforce back, which is more than 1,000 kg in total at a speed of 250 km/h.
Inside, it has a traditional two-seat configuration and a driver-focused cockpit, which Ferrari says is the “1+” configuration. The control panel faces the driver, and he sits in a bright red sports adjustable seat, while the passenger’s seat is fixed.
Ferrari also offers active safety equipment such as automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, automatic high beams and a traffic sign recognition system.
The powertrain has undergone the biggest change. The V12 engine is no longer an option. It was replaced by a V6 twin-turbo engine paired with three electric motors with a total power of 1,200 hp (882 kW). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 2.15 seconds with a top speed of more than 350 km/h (217 mph). Ignition and injection timing were modified and combustion chamber pressure was increased by 20 percent compared to the 296. Thanks to that, the V6 engine spins at a maximum of 9,000 rpm. The engine was mated to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, which was specially calibrated to handle the additional pressure. The car sits on 20″ and 21″ wheels wrapped in 285/30 R20 front and 345/30 R21 rear Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 or Pilot Sport Cup 2R tires.
There are two electric motors plus an inverter and an integrated cooling system on the front axle, while the third motor is located at the back. The two front motors enable torque distribution and can send up to 210 kW back to the front axle via regenerative braking. The rear-mounted electric motor powers the gasoline engine, recovering energy and adding torque when needed. It also provides more than 80 hp and can recover 70 kW of energy in regeneration mode. All three electric motors are connected to an 800-volt lithium-cell 2.3 kWh battery, and produce a total power of 330 hp.
The driver can choose between three modes: Hybrid, Performance and Qualify. There is no fully electric mode, but hybrid prioritizes energy recovery and battery charging, while Performance mode consumes more energy by keeping the battery at 70 percent charge. The Qualify mod unleashes the full power of the F80. There is also a new Boost Optimization technology that can be used in Performance and Qualify modes. After a test lap, Boost Optimization will recognize certain areas of the track where it can provide more power, and distribute the power in an optimal way.
The F80 has an active Multimatica suspension that ensures a stable aerodynamic platform. The CCM-R Plus brake technology, developed in cooperation with the Brembo company, is in charge of stopping. Advanced carbon brakes use longer fibers that improve mechanical strength over traditional carbon brakes by 100 percent, while improving thermal connectivity by 300 percent.
