Ludo Fabrica is an independent automotive manufacturer, owned and operated by a single individual located in the USA.
While the owner is responsible for all designs and concepts, manufacturing and testing is outsourced to two separate factories
located in different parts of the world, one dedicated to platforms and models, the other dedicated to engines. The completed vehicles
are made to order and sold privately. Ludo Fabrica has no aspiration to lead the charge in the industry, we exist only to create unique
and high-grade vehicles for enthusiasts and collectors.
Ludo Legio-Fabrica is the Design branch of Ludo Fabrica, responsible for designing platforms and models.
Model performance is designated with one of six following letters;
L: Laus (Glory) is the fully bespoke model, designed for top performance without compromise, made to the customers exact specifications.
A: Altus (Exalted) is the top-of-the-range model, compromising comfort, and in some cases, practicality, for maximum performance.
C: Citatus (Cheery) is the mid-range model, designed to give sporty and fun performance without sacrificing comfort and practicality.
S: Solitus (Ordinary) is the standard model, designed to strike a good balance of comfort, practicality, performance and price point.
N: Natales (Family) is a toned down, enlarged model designed to safely, reliably, and comfortably carry many people at once.
V: Viridis (Green) is a stripped out and simplified model designed purely for economic driving, making sacrifices where needed.
Now then, here’s the good stuff.
The 1976 Alacris is a small coupe designed for fun over all else, hence the name. Powered with a rumbling V8, The Alacris has the power
to get you from point A to point B with a smile on your face. The Alacris is Ludo Fabrica’s response to the American Muscle boom,
proving that it’s possible to have a big and powerful engine in a light and nimble chassis that can turn on a dime.
That said, The Alacris is Ludo Fabrica’s first foray into the automotive manufacturing game, so it’s not perfect.
The 1976 Alacris comes in L, A, C, and S models. The car on display here is the L model.

The 1978 Ludicra is exactly what it sounds like, interpreted in one of two ways: Ludicrous and Playful. Requested by a youth from Europe,
the L model is the most impractical car that will ever leave the Ludo Fabrica facilities. The Ludicra is designed for nothing but recreational
driving, but despite the seemingly tame engine and FWD drivetrain, the incredibly underweight Ludicra is not for inexperienced drivers.
We favor truth over marketing here at Ludo Fabrica. We won’t lie, this car isn’t great.
The 1978 Ludicra comes in L, C, and V models. The car on display here is the C model.
(I’d show the L model, but I don’t have pictures of it, and I’m too lazy to take some.)

The 1982 Laevis is our early-adopter offering to Group B rally, and as direct competition to the Audi Quattro.
Of course, a road going version was necessary to provide for our first foray into the Motorsport scene, so we took the turbo off for them.
If you want an economical car, you’d probably be better off looking elsewhere. But if you want some of the best performing wheels
currently available, you’ve chosen well.
The 1982 Laevis comes in L, A, and S models. The car on display here is the L model.

The 1983 Domare started life as a concept of something even more ridiculous than the Ludicra, then someone suggested an N model.
That suggestion was taken to the design teams, and the Domare was born as a family car with enough of a punch to the power to please
the man that wanted a sports car before he had a family. If the man had enough money, he could even choose the L model, which is
still big enough for the family, but powerful enough to beat any sports car…apart from ours, of course.
The 1983 Domare comes in L, N, and V models. The car on display here is the L model.

The 1992 Velox is the result of Ludo Fabrica ignoring all customers desires and making something we wanted to make for ourselves.
The single purpose of the Velox is to revive the spirit of our original creation, the Alacris, and bring it to a more modern equivalent.
This car is for the enthusiasts. Powered with a classic Inline 6, the Velox will take good care of you if you take better care of it yourself.
Of course, there is an L model, which is not for the faint of heart.
The 1992 Velox comes in L, A, and S models. The care on display here is the A model.
