Sant'Agata Bolognese / Seattle (WA), June 20, 2016 – Automobili Lamborghini is celebrating the grand opening for the new Seattle-based carbon fiber research facility, the Advanced Composite Structures Laboratory (ACSL).
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 Lamborghinis of the future. The official grand opening of the new ACSL also marks the 30th anniversary of Lamborghini's use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer in its vehicles.
“Carbon fiber is a material that Lamborghini has a long history with. Starting with the Countach Quattrovalvole and continuing today, it is one of the most important keys to the success of our cars in the past, present and future,” said Stefano Domenicali, Automobili Lamborghini Chief Executive Officer.
Seattle is a strategic location for the ACSL, particularly because of its collaboration with Boeing in working toward carbon fiber innovations that are beneficial in both automotive and aerospace applications.
“Seattle is a nexus for innovation and Lamborghini's choice to base its carbon fiber research center here reflects that,” Washington State Gov. Jay 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.”
Forged Composite® is one of the most important developments to come from research within the ACSL which shortens the amount of production time required to form components by comparison 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 enhance its finished product for structural and aesthetical application in 2013.
“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, Board Member, R&D. “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.”
Lamborghini's dedication to leading the industry in carbon fiber innovation goes beyond material development through the ACSL to find and recruit young, talented engineers 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 milestones and technological “firsts.” Appropriately, it is only available in a very limited production run of 20 coupes and 20 Roadsters.

Sant’Agata Bolognese, 13 July 2016 – Lamborghini launches the Ad Personam Studio at its historic Sant’Agata Bolognese headquarters: an area dedicated entirely to the company's customization program, which enables each customer to create his or her very own, Lamborghini.
The Ad Personam Studio is located in the heart of the company's production facility, and its concept and furnishings inspired by creative spaces and design studios. It is designed to offer Lamborghini customers the unique experience of being aided by an Ad Personam specialist at every step of the process, in order to select colors, interior trim and the materials of their future super sports car.
Before specifying their car, the prospective owner visits the factory on a guided tour, so he or she can view possible configurations on actual Huracán and Aventador models. Next, the customer is hosted in the sophisticated yet minimal atmosphere of the Ad Personam Studio, which includes displays of leathers, colors, materials, seats and rims, and includes an advanced car configurator for digital simulation of possible options. The lounge area is also used for displaying the particular Lamborghini model ordered by the customer.
The Ad Personam program is available for both Huracán and Aventador. As one of the company's strategic offerings, the program not only ensures the best possible customer experience, but also enhances the product and brand in a broader sense.
Ad Personam began in 2006 and was expanded in 2013 with the creation of a dedicated team consisting of representatives from the company's principal departments. The goal of the Ad Personam group of specialists is to provide a tailored consulting service that aids each customer in choosing colors, materials, trim and accessories, which meet the stylistic criteria of the Lamborghini marque and are consistent with its stringent quality and safety standards.
Since 2013, more than 50 new Ad Personam exterior colors have been developed, and the option of applying two-tone paint and livery has been introduced. The number of possible combinations of colors and materials for the interior has also been increased. New materials have even been added, such as different types of Alcantara to enhance sporty components of the car interior and new fine leathers like the semi-aniline leather to enhance the luxurious feeling of the interior.
One of the most high-tech and in-demand Ad Personam materials is Forged Composite, an innovative carbon fiber material patented by Lamborghini and offered on both the roof and the interior and exterior details of the Aventador.
In the first half of 2016 more than 50% of Lamborghini super sports cars delivered were customized with the Ad Personam option – a percentage that has tripled over the past three years. The Aventador is undoubtedly the most customized model: the privilege of a clientele that is more sensitive to the exclusiveness and uniqueness of their purchase.
