The model, which is controlled by a Bluetooth-enabled smartphone app, reached 36.5 kph, which converts to about 22.6 mph. The BuWizz team puts its Spano to the test on a race track in Slovenian town of Velenje.
The model is intended to be a faithful representation of the real hypercar made of Lego bricks. The Lego cars are models of the Spania GTA Spano hypercar, of which just 12 cars have been produced, with a price tag of €1.8mn. The project started earlier in 2021, when some of BuWizz's executives began looking for cooperation with a hypercar manufacturer and concluded a deal with Spanish firm Spania.
Slovenian firm BuWizz, which specialises in making motors for Lego cars and scaled-down trains, claims to have built the fastest detailed 1:8-scale Technic model in the world, the company said in a blog post.
