LAMBORGHINI GOES UP IN FLAMES

There’s something very special about getting a new car. The smell, the sound and the overall feeling… It just doesn’t get any better than this.

That’s probably what the American influencer and exotic car fanatic Ethan Duran thought when he took ownership of his brand-new Lamborghini Revuelto.

Duran owns an exotic car hire company in the United States. He’s well-known for his love of supercars.

Unfortunately, that new car feeling didn’t last long. That’s because Duran’s 746kW supercar caught fire only after driving it for 173 kilometres.

The incident took place in New York while Duran was driving on the highway. He noticed flames coming out of the rear of the car and pulled over to the side of the road.

Soon after he pulled over, the Lamborghini was up in flames.

The cause of the fire remains unknown.

The good news is that Duran escaped unharmed. The bad news, though, is that the Lamborghini has burnt out completely.

Lamborghini didn’t comment on the matter even though Duran posted about it on his Instagram. The post included a video of the car up in flames.
