Terzo Millenio: Beast with an electric heart

Though the world is moving toward an electric future, the sports cars don’t seem to be in a mood to give up their untamed IC engines which make them a beast in true senses. But, not even once failed to fascinate the world with its engineering marvels, Lamborghini has hit back with its “Beast from the future”. 


A beast in its true sense, “Terzo Millenio” has got all the legacy of the Lamborghini but it has got an electric heart which makes it different from all the other variants of the company.

You cannot expect anything less when two marvels like the MIT and the Lamborghini collaborate on a project. Though, it’s gonna take time before the “Terzo Millenio” can become reality but it’s features are enough to give goosebumps to the rivals. If Lamborghini was ever to make the X-men team, then the “Terzo Millenio” would certainly have been the Wolverine among them. I am not exaggerating it but I’m making this comparison as it has got the feature of self-healing. MIT researchers have taken the material science to anew level by employing the nano-tubes in the body of this beast. Another purpose behind using the carbon nano-structure is to diffuse the nano charges into CFK-based panels which will convert the fuselage into an energy storage device.


While talking about the power, “Terzo Millenio” will be powered by four motors attached to each wheel. Lamborghini claims to use the super-capacitors as a power source for its beast as the current battery technology doesn’t seem viable to them. If we talk about the current situation, then the use of super-capacitors to power a super car is next to impossible due to its limited energy density. But, Lamborghini is working on the development of high energy density super-capacitors which will make the batteries obsolete. While talking about the signature fire-sound of the Lamborghini, then the plans are to define a sound able to substitute one of today’s V12. 

Images have also revealed the signature Y rear lights boasting the Lamborghini culture.

While you cannot expect the “Terzo Millenio” on the roads any sooner but can just fascinate yourself with the thoughts of raging this beast through the roads.

Faster than the Fastest production car of the world

Image
One thing about which almost every sports car freak is crazy is their mind-blowing speed. It doesn't matter if you could ever achieve that speed on road or not but you'd always desire to boast those numbers among your friends and groups. So fellas, what do you think? Which car should be the fastest car?  Well, you might be thinking about the  Bugatti Veyron Super-sport or the newly unveiled Chiron. But actually, it's not the case. T hey hold the record of the fastest production car according to the Guinness Book of World Records officially but the “ Hennessey Venom GT ” by Hennessey Performance Engineering is unofficially the fastest car at a whopping speed of “270.49 MPH”. Yeah you read it right. It's 435.11 km/h. To make a claim for Guinness Record for fastest production car the company has to at least make 30 cars, while the company has decided to make only 29 cars which is a bit funny. And this company does not make the whole car, they just tune the engine and

Muscle Cars - The raw and untamed beasts

Image
Almost every youth on the planet loves speed, obviously after the “Fast & Furious” and “Need for Speed” movies. But when it comes to defining the Muscle car, the things get a bit complicated. As the name suggests, the built up of this automobile is taken care, not only from within but also from the exterior parts. As per American norms, a muscle car can be defined as a two door; rear wheel drive, mid-size cars with powerful engines. These cars are considered as high-performance vehicles compared to other normal ones. Comparison between a muscle car and a sports car:- ·         Engine :- A muscle car uses a V8 engine while an engine of a sports car may be small but is quick. Thus the engine of muscle car is powerful while the same of sports car is quick ·         Bodies :- The muscle cars are made up with lots of curves while a sports car is built with an aim of reducing the force that is applied on car due to air resistance. ·         The torque produced in

Hydrogen Fuel - The Fuel of the Future

Image
                                                                               As we often hear in our day to day lives, the availability of fuels is decreasing day by day and the biggest concern in automobile is pollution due to these fuels, so the new idea and search comes for zero pollution as well as the better availability, renewability and efficiency too. Although, many researches are going on for the alternate fuels but one of the most promising fuel source is Hydrogen which can produce an abundant amount of energy and that too with zero emissions. Hydrogen may seem to be very abundant but pure hydrogen is not naturally available on earth in large quantity. So, electrolysis and steam-methane reforming processes are methods to produce hydrogen. In electrolysis, the electricity is passed through water to separate the hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Obtaining hydrogen from this process leads to low cost. In steam-methane reforming process, hydrogen is extracted from methan
