Lamborghini-backed racing team adopts NFT certification for car parts
GT Racing Team Vincenzo Sospiri Racing (VSR) is partnering with NFT platform go2nft for a project that certifies racing car parts. NFT will assist in monitoring and ensuring quality of the car parts, with the support room offered to extend this technology to merchandising.
Go2NFT’s pilot scheme will utilise NFT tech to authenticate factory parts, with racing champion Vincenzo Sospiri himself stating that VSR, Go2NFT, and the blockchain platform Skey Network will be building cars with verified provenance. This isn’t Lamborghini’s first dip into NFTs.
In August 2021, the company celebrated its founder, Ferruccio Lamborghini, with the launch of an NFT collection, a collaboration between the Ferruccio Lamborghini Museum and crypto arts platform Elysium Bridge. Known as a "one-time event", the collection gives investors the chance to "own unique pieces of supercar history in an unprecedented NFT drop."
But it's not just performance cars that are experimenting with NFTs. Alfa Romeo's latest SUV, the Tonle, enables customers to track and store its maintenance records. This, more practical, point of view of documenting vehicle data will add much needed transparency and efficiency to record-keeping.
