Barely a month and a half after causing a sensation at his presentation<\/a> At the Concorso d\u2019Eleganza Villa d\u2019Este, the Kimera K-39<\/a> has already returned to the setting for which it seems to have been designed: the paddocks of a legendary racetrack. On the weekend of July 2\u20135, 2026, during the Le Mans Classic Legend, the small Italian automaker Kimera Automobili<\/a> had brought several of his creations along. And, of course, one car caught everyone's eye: the spectacular K-39 Pikes Peak with its Martini Racing livery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An almost perfect setting for this handcrafted hypercar inspired by Lancia\u2019s glory days in racing. Surrounded by classic cars, the K-39 looked like it had come straight out of the 1980s\u2026 except that it boasts technology and performance worthy of the most modern hypercars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lancia spirit of the 1980s, but taken to the extreme<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At the Kimera booths, founder Luca Betti had brought together the past and the future. On one side was a genuine Lancia 037 Rally, which he was driving in the event. On the other, two modern interpretations of his vision: a Kimera K-39 Stradale and this incredible K-39 Pikes Peak, which is much more radical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
