Maruti 800 converted to Lamborghini! Jharkhand man's 'Jugaad' goes viral
A mechanic from Jharkhand has caught the internet’s attention after modifying a Maruti 800 into a replica of a Lamborghini model. The unique build, created by Mohammad Arif in a small workshop in Chandil, has gone viral on social media. Let’s take a quick look at some details around the modified model.
Arif reportedly spent around Rs 4 lakh to complete the transformation, a tiny fraction of what an actual Lamborghini costs. Instead of using ready-made body kits like many professional custom garages, he hand-crafted most of the modifications himself, cutting, welding and shaping panels to achieve the aggressive styling.
To give the car a low-slung and wide stance similar to a Lamborghini, the original structure of the Maruti 800 may have seen several changes. The tall, boxy body was stripped down and the wheel arches were flared to create a wider look. Instead of heavy metal panels, Arif likely used fiberglass body parts to shape the sharp and angular design lines while keeping the overall weight in check.
The car also features a large rear wing, deep front splitters and 16-inch wide alloy wheels, replacing the small 12-inch wheels of the original hatchback. Besides, the car features custom LED headlamps and a bright neon green paint finish.
Inside, the car appears to have turned into a sporty two-seater cabin with a and even a sunroof, something the original Maruti 800 never offered.
Despite the dramatic visual makeover, the car continues to use the stock 796cc three-cylinder petrol engine, which typically delivers around 37–40 bhp and 56–59 Nm of torque. While its performance is nowhere close to that of a real Lamborghini, Arif’s creative “desi supercar” has managed to grab plenty of attention and is now going viral on social media.

This is both good and bad for India. When I was young I used to feel very proud of Indian innovation called Juggad (where people use clever ways of doing things either with smaller budget or solve a problem quickly at the heat of the moment). But I later realised that this very habit is also bad for India as we never spend time and money to do it right. I can give several examples or stories to highlight my point. During my childhood I was told a story that USA NaaSA spent millions to design a pen whose ink would flow even without gravity for use inside spacecraft while clever Russians used a pencil. At that time I used to think Russians are so clever but later I realised that the graphite dust of the pencil would become poison in the trapped air of a spaceship and it was NASA who was actually doing it right and learned many more things during their research. Same is true here. While I congratulate the young man for his brilliant efforts, he should not here. He should learn Design as a professional and take his own ideas to the next level or maybe design for Indian Automakers I wish him the bestRead allPost comment
