British supercar specialist Lanzante Limited has gone viral after unveiling its 95‑59 hypercar featuring a Lord Ganesha‑inspired crest on its badge. The launch combining Indian symbolism, high‑performance engineering, and cultural storytelling has sparked widespread discussion across social media. The 95‑59, debuted at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, is Lanzante’s first model under its own name and features striking stylistic cues that honor both heritage and innovation.
The idea of using Lord Ganesha as a symbol for Lanzante comes from George Harrison of The Beatles, who was deeply influenced by Indian spirituality. Harrison saw Ganesha as a symbol of good fortune and an eliminator of obstacles, qualities that the company believes align with its ethos of overcoming engineering challenges while maintaining sophistication.
Lanzante, famous for its skill in revamping and modifying iconic race cars, has launched its first hypercar, the 95-59, under its own brand. The name pays tribute to the company's notable 1995 Le Mans victory with the McLaren F1 GTR, as per the report of Times of India. Starting at approximately €1.38 million (roughly ₹12.5 crore), it is considered a valuable collector's piece.
Performance: The hypercar is driven by an 850 horsepower twin-turbo V8 engine, encased in a lightweight carbon-fiber body. Its central exhaust, influenced by the F-22 fighter jet, enhances its aggressive aerodynamic design.
Exclusivity: A total of just 59 units will be manufactured, each featuring a crest inspired by Ganesha.
The Lanzante 95-59 might be extremely exclusive, yet its emblem has already captivated millions on the internet, demonstrating that design can sometimes make a stronger impact than engine power.
