Lamborghini Insecta concept has us buggin' out |
Playing a quick game of automotive-animal word association, you'd
probably link Lamborghini to a bull. Between the emblem on the hood,
supercars named after famous fighting bulls and the farming roots of
the company, the association is well established. Iulian Bumbu thinks
otherwise. The aspiring Romanian car designer, who interned at Alfa
Romeo's styling department after earning his master's in car design in
Milan, created the design study you see here.
Called the Insecta, the radical concept's design elements were borrowed from bugs instead of bovines.
Combining
organic shapes with Lamborghini's trademark geometric angles, the
Insecta concept integrates themes culled from the body armour observed
on certain species of insects. With its dimensions and powertrain
borrowed from the Gallardo, the Insecta would pack a sting as sharp as
its buzz, and it could make a compelling successor to the current
LP560-4 – but Lambo would have to drop a load of bull first.
