READ THE FULL STORY
Zagreb, Croatia, coachbuilder Tedson Motors has done a few Porsche restomods, and now it takes on Lamborghini's Gallardo, which was built between 2003 and 2013. The V-10-powered car gets a six-speed manual transmission, a power increase, a carbon-fiber body, and suspension upgrades from the Super Trofe0. Scroll through for a closer look.
Tedson Motors says the carbon-fiber-bodied Etna is "inspired by the Golden Era of Formula 1."
Weight reduction was a priority—and a 450-pound weight savings was achieved—thanks to elements including carbon-fiber seats, titanium exhaust, and suspension components from the Super Trofeo and GT3 race cars.
The Gallardo's 5.0-liter V-10 makes 592 horsepower in the Etna and has a 10,000-plus-rpm redline.
Bonus, the Etna's custom titanium exhaust system amplifies the car's sound.
Tedson sources the Etna's 19-inch custom wheels from California's AL13 Wheels.
Only 77 Etna cars will be produced starting with a Launch Edition Series of nine cars, with deliveries slated to start in fall 2026.
