7X Design Rayo - How to design a 300 mph hypercar based on a Lamborghini Huracan

Have you ever wondered how hypercars can reach incredible top speeds? Because of aerodynamics! (and engine power :) ).

At high speeds, almost all resistance the car has to overcome stems from aerodynamic drag. So reducing it, while maintaining a good aerodynamic balance, is the key.

In this video, we walk around the 7X Design Rayo, a highly modified Lamborghini Huracan. The car was almost entirely rebodied, with highly streamlined shapes. We reduced the drag by over 28%!

There are a lot of aerodynamic elements on the car that made this possible:

  • Extended & revised front splitter: guiding more high speed air underneath the car to create downforce through the Bernoulli effect
  • Front air curtains: accelerating air to form a curtain alongside the wheels, reducing their drag
  • Nearly flat underfloor to allow the flow underneath the car to accelerate as much as possible
  • Ventilation of the front & rear wheel arches
  • Revised position of the side air intakes
  • Diffuser optimization: reduction of rear wheel wake disturbance, wider & more organic shape to maintain attached flow
  • Open rear grill to aid cooling
