Supercars aren’t the only ones using exotic materials. The need to make supercars lighter and stronger is also leading to the use of new materials. Velozzi For example, a hypercar constructed from Spider Silk is also infused with carbon fiber. Velozzi is the first hypercar to use Spider Silk and demonstrate the benefits. Velozzi entered into a collaboration agreement with Spidey Tek to execute this. Gram for gram certain spider silk fibres can be stronger and more elastic that rubber, absorbing significant amounts of energy.
Spider Silk, the strongest natural substance on Earth, is used by the Velozzi in the body. It is elastic, strong and light – so it’s perfect for automobiles. It is more flexible and lighter than materials like steel, Kevlar, Kevlar, carbon fibre, and Kevlar.
This means that Spider Silk can be used to increase efficiency, strength, and lightness. This is what the Velozzi hypercar utilizes and the design remains true to its original. Supercar Rulebook with a low slung look. It has a cab forward stance, but it is also crouching with a series tapered lines. Spider Silk construction allows it to weigh only 888kg, but the 1000bhp performance is nothing short of hypercar territory.
All of this power comes from the naturally aspirated V12, which is a bit of a rarity in this age of hybrid supercars. It can reach a top speed of 230mph, and go from 0-60mph within 2.7 seconds.
Interesting enough, the Velozzi has a 6-speed F1 gearbox manual by Traction products, a F1 World Championship-winning company. Weismann Transmission. In a world of double-clutch auto gearboxes, the choice of a manual analog F1 transmission does seem a bit novel. Driving would then be analog, and similar to earlier supercars. The power-toweight ratio is what everyone is talking about, since the car weighs only 888kgs. This is lighter than most supercars and even hypercars.
Velozzi is only building 100 of these missiles, each of which costs up to $ 3 million. There’s also a four-year waiting list. Moving forward Spider Silk Could replace carbon fiber composites in the aerospace and automotive industry.
