It is told that Huayra Tata resides deep in the high peaks and valleys, abandoning them only to demonstrate his power to his wife, Pachamama, goddess of mother earth. With his power Huayra Tata was able to lift the waters from lake Titicaca and rain them down on the fertile Pachamama. When Huayra Tata sleeps, the waters and rivers lay quiet.

Lamborghini

Talk about extreme performance glossed with flamboyance, and one word surely pops in everyone’s mind: Lamborghini.

Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A., or Lamborghini for short, is an automotive manufacturer based in Sant'Agata Bolognese, a small commune in central Italy. It was founded by the manufacturing magnate Ferruccio Lamborghini in 1963, and has changed ownership many times since then. After a series of disappointments, Lamborghini finally produced the Espada, the first truly popular model from the company which sold 1200 copies for ten years.

Today, Lamborghini cars always make perfect rivals for any race track finish line. The Lamborghini Murciélago LP640, with its gloss primer grey paint, upgraded V12 engine, and optional transparent engine cover, garnered oohs and aahs when it made its debut in the 2006 Geneva Motor Show. Running a speed of 211 mph and counting a total bhp of 613.

Technical details of the new ‘i’ cars from BMW

The i3 will tip the scales at 2,755 pounds, while the i8 will come in under 3,300 pounds. While that might sound slightly chunky, consider that the average gasoline-powered car converted to EV duty normally tacks on around 500 pounds courtesy of the battery, motor and cooling system. When looked at in this way, both models could be considered rather svelte.

The carbon fiber “Life” structure that envelops the i3′s passengers is so strong (yet very light) that BMW’s engineers didn’t have to include a B-pillar for structural rigidity. That means ingress and egress should be easy, aided by the fact that both models utilize ultra-thin carbon fiber and plastic bits for the interior elements.
