Introduced at the 2003 Geneva Motor Show.
Country of origin: Morocco

Abdeslam Laraki completed his design studies in Italy and opened a yacht-designer studio in his hometown. In 2002 he fulfilled his childhood dream and built his own sportscar. The Fulgura concept car which debuted at the 2002 Geneva Motor Show was based on the Lamborghini Diablo.

New for the production Fulgura version is completely in-house designed aluminum chassis. The driveline is a Mercedes Benz V8, mated to a state-of-the-art sequential 6-speed gearbox.

The exterior design is a mixture of sharp and smooth lines. Fully moulded in carbon fibre the elegant body adds very little to the overall weight of the Fulgura.

Production is planned to commence in Casablanca around November 2003.
