A Bold Move for Lamborghini

Image
So. Lamborghini just made an SUV . Let's get cracking. Lamborghini LM002 So, as many know, the market of sports SUV vehicles is quite full, with many car manufacturers having their own. Be it Jaguar with their E-Pace and F-Pace, Mercedes with their 'G' range, BMW with their 'X' range or even the famed Luxury Range Rover. But we've rarely heard of supercar makers releasing SUVs of their own. Mind you this isn't the first SUV Lamborghini have released. That title goes to the Lamborghini LM-002 which, to me, looks more like a Hummer on steroids rather than a Lamborghini. It was produced from 1986 to 1993, weighed 2.7 tons and was powered by a 7.2 litre V12 ! Yeah I don't imagine this was economical to run at all. The quirkiness of the car also added to the overall weirdness in my opinion. See an in-depth tour of the car here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXKZAVEee74 When one thinks of Lamborghini, they think of low riding, 2 door super

Automotive Technology and Tragedy: Past Week in Review

Let's get going. For my first post, I'm going to do more of a weekly review of what went down the past week in the automotive world. And I can't start it off without mentioning the absolute BOMBSHELL Tesla dropped on us with their presentation. The Tesla Semi-Truck For those of you not familiar with Tesla, it's an automotive company which makes electric cars, great ones at that. I've always been skeptical of electricity powered cars, but I have to say that Tesla have really turned that skepticism round into optimism. In the great presentation they held (putting aside CEO Elon Musk's nervous stuttering), they revealed something I didn't think would be possible: An Electric Semi-Truck. They're given the same futuristic design Tesla is known for on their cars, with an equally simplistic and futuristic driver cabin. Not only does it have a range of 500 miles at highway spee d, but it can also do 0-60 mph in 5 seconds fully loaded ! Th

Petrol, Diesel, Engines, Pistons. These few words are only a few of those which collectively describe my passion, my hobby and my escape from reality: Cars and Racing. Hence I've created this blog, for all the petrol heads just like me, with a passion for racing, be it F1, P1, Drag Racing, Rally racing among many others. About Me Me My name is Damian, I'm a nineteen year old from Malta studying for a Bachelor in Communications. Other than studying at Uni, I also have a part time job so life can get quite busy for me. In all this chaos nothing calms me down more than going for a late night drive or watching a race on Sunday morning. I was born into a car loving family, so you could say I inherited this love for cars. My father and my uncle love cars, and my grandpa is a radiator repairer who also used to Drag Race at the Hal Far back in the day. Being surrounded by all of these it's no surprise I love cars so much. My Daily Driver: Dexter I myself own a 2002 Pol
