Veno Automotive looking to build a better Lamborghini
That is not a Reventón pictured above, but rather a new Polish sports car. Lamborghini should be quite happy with the new design coming from Veno Automotive, after all imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery.
Veno has ambitious goals for the car. It says the supercar will be made from carbon fiber and the chassis can withstand the force brought on by 1000 horsepower. It will be available in coupe and roadster versions and will feature an array of gadgets like a night vision camera with pedestrian detection, onboard computer with internet access and doors that open with the touch of a button.
The current engine choices look like Audi’s 4.2-liter V8 engine developing 350, 450 and 700 HP. Veno says that by next year they will be able to offer the 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 from the Corvette ZR1. There is also mention of the company working on an electric version. That’s a lot of choices for a car that has a planned run of about 50 examples total.
All this sounds great, but it would be nice to see an actual car first. Until then enjoy a sideshow that someone on Youtube was kind enough to put together of all the available pictures of the Polish supercar.
