“By continuing to develop our patented Forged Composite materials, we are able to create a product that can enhance Lamborghini super sports cars in both their performance and their appearance,” said Maurizio Reggiani, Lamborghini board member and R&D chief. “The ability to leverage this kind of lightweight material gives Lamborghini an advantage that will benefit our cars – as well as production process – in the future.”
According to Washington State Gov. Jay Inslee, the work the company is doing will have a significant economic impact on the state.
“Seattle is a nexus for innovation and Lamborghini’s choice to base its carbon fiber research center here reflects that,” Inslee said. “Lamborghini’s Advanced Composite Structures Laboratory, their continued success in developing breakthrough technology, and their collaboration with Boeing is a benefit and a point of pride for the city and the state of Washington.”
