2014 Ferrari LaFerrari

2014 Ferrari LaFerrari

The LaFerrari represents Ferrari’s most ambitious project yet to push the boundaries of technology on a road car, drawing together the finest expression of the marque’s technical capabilities in both GT and Formula 1 engineering. It boasts the most extreme performance ever achieved by a Ferrari production car and features the most advanced and innovative technical solutions which will, in the future, filter down to the rest of the Ferrari range. With production limited to just 499 examples, LaFerrari continues Ferrari’s tradition in building uncompromising performance cars for a small number of highly discerning clients.

The LaFerrari is the first ever car with hybrid technology to come out of Maranello. The 6262cc V12 produces 800 CV and the electric motor a further 12o kW (163 CV) for a total of over 960 CV. Thanks to the huge technological leap forward represented by the HY-KERS system, the LaFerrari is the most high performance and efficient Ferrari ever built.Making full use of Ferrari’s F1 expertise with KERS systems which has been further developed for application to road cars, the HY-KERS guarantees maximum integration between the V12 and the electric motor, seamlessly blending extreme performance with maximum efficiency. The high levels of torque available at low revs from the electric motor allowed the engineers to optimise the internal combustion engine’s performance at higher revs, thus providing unending power throughout the rev range and a maximum torque peak of over 900 Nm.

The LaFerrari’s architecture represents the pinnacle of innovation even by Ferrari’s legendary standards. The objective was to increase aerodynamic efficiency, deliver ideal weight distribution, lower the car’s centre of gravity as far as possible, and, most importantly of all, seamlessly integrate the new hybrid system. All of this and more has been achieved without impinging on cabin space, comfort or accessibility.

Compared to the last limited series special the bodywork is narrower and lower to achieve maximum aerodynamic efficiency. The centre of gravity was lowered by 35 mm by redesigning the layout and integration of all of the main components and the human-machine interface, resulting in superior handling and responsiveness. Completely revised weight distribution means that the masses are now inside the wheelbase, guaranteeing the LaFerrari a low polar moment of inertia, excellent stability and grip in all driving conditions with 59 per cent of the weight over the rear of the car.

One of the greatest challenges in designing the LaFerrari was incorporating the hybrid system. Despite having the same wheelbase and maximum overall length as the Enzo, the LaFerrari incorporates both the hybrid system and the F1 dual-clutch gearbox plus their cooling systems. In other words, thanks to some extremely meticulous and ingenious engineering and design work, the running gear of two cars is cleverly packaged in the same space as previously occupied by just one.

Drawing on the ergonomically efficient F1 driving position, in which the driver is lower in the car and more reclined, the LaFerrari’s cockpit features a greater inclination of the driver’s upper body, legs and arms. The LaFerrari thus becomes the meeting point between sports car and F1 single-seater. This was achieved by integrating a fixed, bespoke seat lower in the chassis to improve the driver’s sensitivity to the vehicle’s dynamic behaviour.

The pedal box is adjustable to ensure that the driver’s legs are at the correct angle to allow absolutely precise control of both brake and accelerator. Similarly the new, smaller steering wheel is adjustable for reach and in height. Thanks to the chassis design and door aperture, the car is easier to get in and out of without reducing cockpit space.

Aerodynamics play an essential role in the LaFerrari’s exceptional performance and are further example of the uncompromising carry-over of F1 technology to Ferrari’s production models. The engineers’ aim was to deliver the highest degree of aerodynamic efficiency ever achieved with any road car, with a coefficient of nearly 3, thanks to technical solutions honed with CFD analysis and fine-tuned in the F1 Wind Tunnel. Working closely with the aerodynamics department, Ferrari’s Styling Centre incorporated these advanced solutions into the car’s design and the result is the perfect balance of form and function, making the most efficient use of the air flows around and through the car’s body. What makes this design so innovative is its use of active aerodynamics conceived as a seamless integration of the car’s other dynamic control systems to deliver a genuine breakthrough in overall performance. The integration with the car’s controls and dynamic parameters ensures that the active aerodynamics adjust continually to hone both the downforce and its balance via the front and rear devices. In this way the LaFerrari combines the maximum downforce and minimum drag coefficient at every speed and in every driving condition.Thanks to its low height and reduced overall width, the LaFerrari has an extremely compact frontal section for low drag and the tapered, streamlined shape of the greenhouse optimises the air flow towards the rear cooling intakes.

The front wing was designed specifically to increase downforce by eliminating the negative effects of pitch sensitivity caused by the pronounced splitters. A broad central air vent on the front bonnet channels hot air away from the radiator. The front spoiler directs the external flow to the front of the outlet to improve its efficiency, thus creating compression on the front section of the bonnet which generates downforce. A central flap helps keep the airstream from the vent close to the bodywork to reduce the wake, while the rear radius of the vent reduces drag.

The LaFerrari perfectly melds cutting-edge formal and aesthetic research and aerodynamic functionality, a result achieved by the synergies - from the start of the model’s inception - between Ferrari’s Styling Centre, headed by design chief Flavio Manzoni, and the engineering and development departments.

The LaFerrari’s overall silhouette and proportions are the very natural product of its architecture and the layout of its hybrid running gear. The design is striking and innovative, yet its sleek profile remains true to Ferrari’s classic mid-rear longitudinal V12 sports car archetype: the cabin and engine compartment volumes are contained within the wheelbase to achieve the best possible balance of its masses. Impressively, the addition of the HY-KERS system has not resulted in an increase in dimensions, but a better balance between the car’s front and rear overhangs. Seen from the side the car has a sharp, downward-sloping nose and a very low bonnet which emphasises its muscular wheelarches.

Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster

Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster

The new Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster is a completely open vehicle with sleek lines combining perfectly balanced sportiness and elegance. The design is the result of a careful study into the best way of combining performance, elegant style, ease of use and a driving experience that excites all five senses.

The new Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster boasts record performance. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in only 3 seconds flat and has a maximum speed of some 350 km/h. These numbers, combines with a drive train featurig a centrally located, 6.5 liter aspirated V12 generating 700 hp, an ISR 7-speed gearbox and push-rod suspension make the new Aventador Roadster a unique super sports car with no direct competition.

The range of colors has been supplemented with a very light,metallic blue color, Azzuro Thetis, whose tone varies with the angle of the light and recalls the shade of the extraordinarily beautiful 1968 Miura Roadster. 

The new Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster also features new Dione 20"/21" rims with a daring, aggressive look.

The engine hood on the Roadster differs from the hood on the coupe because of its central  "spinal column" with two pairs of hexagonal windows connected at the sides as if they were hyper-tech armor plates. Their purpose is to cool the engine, drain off rain water properly and, of course, allow the beauty of the V12 power unit to be admired.

2013 Koenigsegg Agera R

2013 Koenigsegg Agera R

2013 Koenigsegg Agera R

The 2013 Agera R is the result of Koenigsegg’s endless pursuit of perfection. 

The 2013 model features new Aircore hollow carbon fiber wheels, upgraded power and enhanced aerodynamics. The Agera R has an incredible top speed of approximately 440 km/h (273mph).

Recent Records for the Agera R: 0-300 km/h in 14.53 sec, 300-0 km/h in 6.66 sec, 0-200 mph in 17.68 sec, 200-0 mph in 7.28 sec.

The Agera R is the only roadster Hypercar with a detachable and stowable hardtop, thereby offering the best of two worlds. This, in combination with 120 litres of luggage space, truly combines extreme performance with everyday usability.

The 2013 Agera R has all the features and functionality of previous year models, but also features new and unique solutions to enhance performance and visual appearance even further.

Examples of these enhancements include: visible carbon on the front bonnet and bumper, new front side winglets, revolutionary Aircore carbon fiber wheels, new Aero exhaust, increased power and a raised RPM limit.

Koenigsegg was the first Hypercar manufacturer to take steps toward green technology with the release of the biofuel CCXR in 2007. The Agera R, based on the highly competitive Agera, follows in the footsteps of the CCXR as it also runs on E85 biofuel.

Among the many differences to the standard Agera, the Agera R has an upgraded fuel and engine management system with enough flow capacity to generate 1140hp and 1200Nm of torque on E85 and E100 biofuel. As there is less energy content per given volume in these biofuels compared to normal petrol, the fuel system has to manage a flow that is similar to a 2000hp petrol engine, which means that the Agera R’s return-less fuel system has the highest capacity of any car presently in production.

As the Agera R is a flexfuel car, it can also be run on normal petrol. As 95 octane fuel has less octane than ethanol E85, the power is reduced to 960hp with 1100Nm of torque due to the boost pressure and ignition timing being altered to match the fuel characteristics.

In order to give the Agera R maximum flexibility when it comes to power delivery, Koenigsegg has implemented the latest technology when it comes to turbo materials and design. This reduces the inertia of the turbine wheel and axle and therefore gives improved response.

2013 Koenigsegg AGERA

Description

   The Koenigsegg Agera  is a super car and the Koenigsegg Agera is designed with a minimalistic “less is more” philosophy in mind. This philosophy dictates that the shape of the car has to be purely functional, with no added features except those needed to meet regulations, or enhance safety, ergonomics, practicality or aerodynamics. We believe that if this philosophy is followed, the car will be as beautiful as it is purposeful. A good analogy is the evolution of the dolphin, a species that has had to meet similar criteria in order to reach its present configuration through the evolution of nature.

The Agera has handsome proportions. It´s compact and muscular. Its timeless, efficient and distinctive shape is a true testament to good design. The original shape and concept of the Koenigsegg CC, created over 15 years ago, is still valid, fresh and highly competitive today. The Agera manages to stay true to the philosophy, shape and size of the original CC. At the same time it looks, feels and performs like something belonging to the future.

  The Agera´s unique carbon fibre monocoque chassis is designed to achieve its maximum stiffness without a roof, as the roof is detachable and stow-able in the front of the car. This in itself is an unusual feature for such a compact hypercar.

The Koenigsegg carbon monocoque chassis has an astonishing level of stiffness, measures at 65.000 Nm/deg. It weighs just 70kg, including the integrated fuel tanks.

The result of constant weight saving exercises is a dry weight of only 1330kg, making the Agera the lightest, fully homologated hypercar presently in production.

    The suspension geometry of the Agera was designed to further enhance the award winning behaviour of the CCX. The Agera’s track is wider at the front, compensating for the narrower front tires and giving the car a square stance of 2 meters in both the front and the rear.

In typical Koenigsegg tradition, the Agera has the longest wishbones of all hypercars presently in production. Long wishbones have several advantages – for example: less track width deviation during wheel movement or cornering and improved geometry over a longer wheel stroke. This is one of the reasons why F1 cars have very long wishbones. The wishbones are produced from seamless aeronautical chrome-molybdenum tubing in order to minimise weight while offering maximum strength and stiffness.

The extremely strong and light uprights are machined from 7075-T6 aeronautical grade aluminium, and contain 240mm SKF dual angle contact bearings, normally only found on LeMans prototype cars. The very large bearings contribute to the overall stiffness of the wheel assembly and therefore give better control, handling and comfort. The uprights have large 4.5″ diameter carbon fibre cooling ducts for the brake discs in order to maximise brake cooling.

    The Agera is equipped with the absolute latest ABS technology, which is based on a lightweight, performance-oriented racing system. The system makes it possible for the ABS function to react differently, depending on the performance mode. Furthermore, the ABS braking system operates on massive 392×36mm and 380×34mm ventilated and drilled ceramic discs, for unparalleled braking performance and zero fade, regardless of track or road condition.

    Koenigsegg has continued its longstanding partnership with Michelin with regard to tire development for the Agera. Hence, the Agera features specially developed, latest generation Michelin Super Sport tires.

Due to the tires, advanced suspension and aerodynamics, the Agera achieves lateral acceleration up to 1.6g in dry conditions and offers improved handling in the wet.

These new tires were developed for the Agera during testing at the Michelin Ladoux test centre in France.

The tires are rated for speeds over 420km/h, making them the highest top-speed rated tire in the world, whilst offering cup tire levels of grip and outstanding wet performance, all in one package.

   The Koenigsegg VGR wheels are not just magnificent to look at. They are real air turbines, increasing the downforce of the car by measurable amounts and improving brake cooling. All four wheels are individual so that turbine blades always face the correct direction for extraction. Given that the offset and width is different front to rear, all four wheels have their own unique design. The VGR wheels are forged and then fully machined to the final shape. All excess material is removed during the forging and machining process, thus minimising weight whilst displaying outstanding levels of stiffness.

    Not only do Koenigsegg develop their own engines, but many of the electronic control units, CAN protocols, and management strategies are also developed in-house. If you could look closely at many of the circuit boards in the car - inside the control units, for example - you would find the name Koenigsegg imprinted directly on the circuit boards.

Of course there is no need to develop so many critical items in-house unless it gives the car a competitive edge, which is indeed the case for Koenigsegg. This type of in-house competence gave Koenigsegg the possibility to pioneer the CCXR and Agera R – the first two environmentally conscious hypercars in the world.

One typical example of this internal development regime is the Semiconductor Electric Control Central. The ECC controls most of the electronic functions in the car. Most physical fuses or relays have been replaced by software-controlled semiconductors, which are configurable in function and enable monitoring of all power and threshold values. The ECC communicates via CAN with the infotainment system in order to display necessary information to the driver.

For example, if a door is open, a lamp is broken, or if one of the roof locks are not tightened properly, the driver will be informed via the instrument display as all electrical functions are controlled and monitored by the ECC.

    The Agera is the first combustion engine production car in the world with an intelligent Lithium Iron battery as standard equipment. This battery type saves significant weight and is more compact compared to traditional lead acid batteries. Also, Lithium Iron cells cannot reach thermal runway - a state that can mean meltdown and/or fire - like Li-ion batteries. This makes them very safe for automotive use.

The ILB carries many intelligent functions developed by Koenigsegg together with our battery supplier. Hypercars tend to be parked for long periods of time and it is not unusual for the batteries to be drained if the car is not connected to a trickle charger. Even though all Koenigsegg cars come with a trickle charger as a standard accessory, it is not unheard of for its use to be neglected. Depending on location, it may not even be possible to use it. There is also the potential for a driver to occasionally forget to turn off all accessories in the car, such as the parking lights, for example, which may cause early battery drainage.

Koenigsegg has therefore implemented a minimum current protection mode, to make accidental battery drainage something of the past. The new ILB has an intelligent circuit built into it so that if the car is left on, or left standing for a long time, the battery will shut down when the voltage drops below a certain threshold. Later, if any essential buttons or a door knob is touched, the battery kicks back into life for 5 minutes and has enough power to operate all of the functions in the car and start the engine, thereby giving charge back to the battery.

Concerns about battery charge are now a thing of the past, irrespective of the behavior of the vehicle user. It is remarkable, but true: you can leave the car in the evening with the high beam on, the stereo at full volume, without the engine running. When you wake up in the morning, you can open the car door, start the engine and drive away. Perhaps a situation more familiar to a hypercar owner would be one where they leave the car for several months, perhaps over winter, and yet they will still be able to open the door, start the car and drive away.
