To celebrate its 50th anniversary Italian automobile manufacturer Lamborghini designed a car that looks like it came out from a Batman movie.
Called the ‘Lamborghini Egoista’, it was designed by Walter de Silva, the head designer of the Volkswagen group.
“The cockpit, made completely of carbon fiber and aluminum, represents a sort of survival cell, allowing the driver to isolate and protect themselves from external elements,” explained de Silva. “We kept an eye on the future when designing the Egoista, with the idea that its cockpit could have been taken from a jet aircraft and integrated into a road vehicle, to provide a different travel option.”
According to Designboom, the car was inspired by an apache helicopter—it even features a single seat cockpit that can be ejected in an emergency.
