The Lamborghini Egoista concept car is a mean-looking machine that embraces a tough aesthetic to better convey its thrilling driving capabilities. Although it was inspired by the Apache helicopter, an advanced attach flyer used by the military, the Lamborghini Egoista concept car could easily be likened to the technologically impressive Batmobile or other similar fictional ride.
Designed by Walter de Silva, Italian designer and current head of Volkswagen Group Design, the Lamborghini Egoista concept car continues the brand's 50 year anniversary celebrations. Aggressively lightweight, its sculpted exterior is predominantly made out of carbon fiber. The cockpit canopy can also be removed for further weight savings. Powered by a 600 horsepower V10 engine, it is a one-of-a-kind creation.
