    This is a concept car built with help of 50 students from MIT, some studying in Italy Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Lambo seems to be intent on continuing to build cars that Darth Vader could call his own...I be a humble writer, but like to hear opinions from pro designers....here's mine to start the ball rolling....

    FRONT windshield extends too far. Could overheat the driver unless it has capacity to go opaque in sections to protect occupants.

    SIDE: Seems way too low, unless it’s “bagged” like a low rider. Side vents seem fighting for space with side air scoop, I think the side vents are superfluous—after all there’s no gasoline engine to generate heat, right?

    REAR Taillights seem exceedingly thin, maybe they make up for it in intensity.And are those tailfins (shades of Harley Earl?) or does a spoiler appear to go between those vertical blades. Rear of car is especially sci-fi-ish..bring these MIT guys back to Earth please.

    the rear is nice.
    the front is not so nice and i dont understand it. the grille is open, which is unnecessary for an electric car, and is not aerodynamically helpful. so why ?

    Open front could support turbines that spin generators as air passes through them, thus lowering the rate of battery discharge..
    I like overall complexity..

    I usually dont like these over-detailed sci-fi cars, but for some reason this one works for me.

    It took three engineers and one stylist to come up with the Miura. There's a lesson in here somewhere...
