An Indian guy has turned a Honda Civic into an exact duplicate of the Lamborghini Terzo Millennio electric concept car, capturing the attention of auto fans all around the world. The incredible transformation, which is currently trending on social media, highlights the creativity and commitment of Gujarati YouTuber Tanna Dhaval.
Dhaval spent more than a year painstakingly working on this huge project, which he started with a brand-new 2008 Honda Civic 1.8 model. He built the yellow ‘Lamborghini’ by sourcing different parts and meticulously constructing them, using the Civic’s original engine and accessories.
There were significant expenses associated with the project. With labour costs of almost ₹3 lakh, the metal frame, or chassis, alone costs more than ₹1 lakh. The entire cost of the change came to about ₹12.5 lakh. Dhaval stated that despite his best attempts, he was unable to get wheels that resembled Lamborghini tyres.
Dhaval made a unique Lamborghini sticker insignia to add to the authenticity, which he proudly put on the car’s bonnet. In one of his YouTube videos, he said, “It feels good, especially when one has spent a lot of money on this project.”
Dhaval’s YouTube channel features a series of films in which he painstakingly filmed the entire process, allowing viewers to follow along with every stage of the change.
Dhaval altered the car’s rear end and placed a “63” sticker there as a tribute to British racer George Russell. For the windows, which are fixed and cannot be opened, he used an acrylic sheet covered in black film instead of real glass.
Dhaval put the Indian tricolour on the car to show off his patriotism. “Though Lamborghini is an Italian company, our Indian flag ought to be on it too,” he said, drawing attention to the tricolours affixed to the car.
We’ve utilised every Jugaad thing. Everything needed to match, Dhaval clarified, displaying his ingenuity with the outstanding build.
