Lamborghini, which will celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2023, has not only officially confirmed last week (3/7) the development of a new generation of "Big Bull" codenamed LB774, which will be powered by a 6.5-liter V12 The naturally aspirated gasoline engine and three electric motors combine a petrol-electric system with a combined horsepower of 1,015 (CV). Today (3/14), the new carbon fiber of this new-generation mad bull was revealed. Monocoque chassis technology.
Lamborghini said that in order to improve the torsional rigidity of the car body to cope with the combined horsepower of more than 1,000 horses, and to reduce the weight of the car body to enrich the driving pleasure, when they developed the new generation of Daniu, they specially designed it for it. A new carbon fiber monocoque body inspired by aerospace technology was created, and the front structure of the entire car body was made of a forged composite material made of short carbon fibers soaked in resin, which has a higher level of energy absorption, making it Becoming the world's first supercar to use 100% forged carbon fiber composite front structure.
In addition, compared with the chassis platform on which the Aventador is mounted, the new-generation Daniu's carbon fiber monocoque has made significant improvements in torsional rigidity, lightweight and driving dynamics. In addition to being better than the Aventador's The chassis is 10% lighter (the front frame is 20% lighter than its aluminum predecessor) and torsional rigidity has been improved, with a torsion resistance value of 40,000Nm/deg, 25% higher than the Aventador, ensuring excellent dynamic performance.
Moreover, the new carbon fiber monocoque body has introduced a wide range of forged composite material technology. The monomer annular parts are made of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic), which forms the main support structure of the body, the cockpit, firewall and A-pillars. It is made of forged carbon fiber composite materials, and the production of forged carbon fiber composite parts greatly reduces the energy consumption and waste of cooling equipment, and improves the sustainability of raw materials.
As for the roof, Lamborghini uses pre-impregnated carbon fiber materials using high-pressure composite production technology, which can take into account technical, aesthetic and rigid requirements, and provides a wealth of customization options; as for the rear chassis, it is made of Made of high-strength aluminum alloy, two hollow castings are designed in the rear cabin to integrate the rear suspension shock tower and powertrain suspension into a complete component, allowing the weight to be significantly reduced, the stiffness to be increased, and the Reduce solder joints.
Lamborghini believes that LB744 has started the "year zero" of carbon fiber in the automobile production process, especially in the field of "AIM (Automation, Integration and Modularity)"; "Automation" refers to the introduction of automated and digital processes into the material conversion process, while retaining Lamborghini's manufacturing processes in the field of composite materials.
"Integration" is its development through compression molding, integrating multiple parts into a single component, such as using preheated polymers to produce parts of various lengths, thicknesses, and complexity, and ensuring The integration of parts can ensure the rigidity of the components; as for "modularity", it means that it allows the application technology to be modularized, so that it can meet the requirements and characteristics of all products more flexibly and efficiently.
However, Lamborghini is still keeping the new Daniu’s official name, launch schedule and other plans secret. It only confirmed that the Aventador’s successor will be part of the brand’s 60th anniversary celebrations. As for When will the new car be released? Will it still be named after the legendary bullfighting as in the past? Netizens are invited to continue reading with us...
