Segway-Ninebot may have just helped produce the most affordable Lamborghini ever — and the only electric one. Just don’t plan on taking it on the highway, since the new Lamborghini electric go-kart is built purely for the track.
Officially known as the Ninebot GoKart Pro Lamborghini Edition, the new electric go-kart was produced by a partnership between Segway-Ninebot and Lamborghini.
The build looks similar to an earlier Segway Ninebot design, yet gets some serious performance upgrades.
The new Lamborghini Edition go-kart reaches speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h) thanks to its detachable Segway-Ninebot self-balancing scooter mounted in the rear. The rear tires are also swapped for drifting-friendly tires, while the front gets higher traction rubber for safer turning.
There also appears to be true Ackermann steering, functional head lights, and a rear wing, which Segway-Ninebot claims actually adds real performance aerodynamic and handling improvements. There’s even four air ducts to provide ram-air cooling to the 432Wh battery.
That battery is apparently enough to power the the Lamborghini Edition electric go-kart for up to 62 laps around a 400 meter track, or approximately 25 km (15.5 miles).
There are also four different speed limits that can be applied to the go-kart and accessed via a smartphone app, which might be good for when you let your kids take the wheel. But with a large bucket seat and a max passenger weight of 220 lb (100 kg), adults should also be able to enjoy the go-kart.
