CELEBRATES THE GRAND OPENING FOR THE NEW SEATTLE-BASED CARBON FIBER RESEARCH FACILITY...
OPERATING AS AN ENTITY OUTSIDE OF THE COMPANY'S HEADQUARTERS IN Sant'Agata Bolognese, the ACSL is responsible for unlocking new potential in carbon fiber. The breakthroughs that take place here go on to influence developments in Lam- borghinis of the future. The official grand opening of the new ACSL on June 20th in Seattle, Washington also marks the 30th anniversary of Lamborghini's use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer in its vehicles. Seattle is a strategic location for the ACSL, par- ticularly because of its collaboration with Boeing in working toward carbon fiber inno- vations that are beneficial in both automotive and aerospace applications. Forged Composite® is one of the most important developments to come from re- search within the ACSL which shortens the amount of production time required to form components in comparison to the traditional labor techniques. The technology made its debut in 2010 with the Sesto Elemento limited series supercar where it served in a structural capacity and as proof of how capable the rapid-formed material is. Such continued refinements in the manufacturing process have allowed Lamborghini to en- hance its finished product for structural and aesthetical applications in 2013. Lamborghini's dedication to leading the industry in carbon fiber innovation goes be- yond material development through the ACSL to find and recruit young, talented en- gineers from around the world. Lamborghini debuted the latest car to showcase its mastery of carbon fiber during the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. The Centenario, which was on display for the exclusive event, is available in a body made of fully exposed carbon fiber.
Meant to mark what would have been company founder Ferruccio Lamborghini's 100th birthday, the Centenario is a marriage between acknowledgements of past mile- stones and technological "firsts." Appropriately, it is only available in a very limited production run of 20 coupes and 20 Roadsters. LA VITA
