Lanzante Limited, a British supercar manufacturer, recently introduced its new hypercar, the 95-59, featuring a crest inspired by Lord Ganesha. This design choice has generated significant interest on social media, combining Indian symbolism with advanced automotive engineering. The crest reflects Lanzante’s values of good fortune and overcoming barriers, a sentiment also associated with George Harrison of The Beatles, who held a deep admiration for Indian spirituality.

The Lanzante 95-59 marks the company’s inaugural hypercar, named in honor of its 1995 Le Mans success with the McLaren F1 GTR. It is powered by an 850 hp twin-turbo V8 engine, encased in a lightweight carbon-fiber frame. The design includes a central exhaust inspired by the F-22 fighter jet to enhance aerodynamics. Only 59 units of the 95-59 will be produced, each featuring the Ganesha-inspired logo, with prices starting at approximately €1.38 million (around ₹12.5 crore).
