The Lamborghini Huracan sports car sports a 21st-century design inspired by the De Tomaso Pantera. This vehicle is referred to as Project Panther.
The automotive world is abuzz with excitement as Ares Design, known for bespoke luxury and performance cars, has unveiled its latest creation - the Ares Panther supercar. This new vehicle is not a revival of the original De Tomaso Pantera, produced between 1971 and 1992, but a modern interpretation of its design and style.
At the helm of Ares Design is Dany Bahar, a former Ferrari designer, who has previously faced challenges at Lotus. However, his work on the Ares Panther project is starting to change perceptions, with many hailing it as a promising venture.
The Ares Panther supercar is based on the Lamborghini Huracan's underpinnings, a decision that promises a blend of power and agility. The vehicle is part of a project named Project Panther, the goal of which is to extract big money from lovers of bespoke cars.
Project Panther will feature a 21st-century De Tomaso Pantera body, paying homage to the original supercar's A Ford V8 and Italian styling. The new supercar, currently undergoing road testing, is expected to be a limited run of Pantera-inspired vehicles.
Intriguingly, Ares Design is also planning to build up to ten Ferrari 250 GTO 'Homage' cars for clients, further cementing their reputation for creating unique, bespoke vehicles.
Despite several failed attempts to revive the De Tomaso Pantera in the past, the Ares Panther supercar marks an exciting new chapter in the legacy of this iconic supercar. As the project progresses, car enthusiasts worldwide eagerly await the unveiling of the final product.
