Automotive technology and luxury vehicle developments

Overview

Brembo has introduced BOLDIKA, a new six-piston fixed aluminum brake caliper engineered for heavy-duty SUVs and pickup trucks. The component utilizes a three-piece construction with a cast iron center bridge to enhance rigidity and stability while reducing weight. It is capable of producing over 8,500 Nm of braking torque and is scheduled to debut on the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado EV RST Stars and Steel Edition.

Further details regarding the BOLDIKA system indicate that the large calipers require wheel rims of at least 20 inches. The system also incorporates Enesys technology, which ensures brake pads return to their correct position after braking to improve efficiency and extend component life. This high level of stopping power is specifically required for heavy electric vehicles like the Silverado, which has a curb weight of approximately 3.9 tonnes due to battery capacities reaching up to 205 kWh.

In related automotive developments, the first Ferrari 12Cilindri, a V12-powered successor to the 812 Superfast, has arrived in Vietnam via a private importer in Ho Chi Minh City. Additionally, Cadillac is evaluating the production of the V-One hypercar concept, a vehicle based on the V-Series.R endurance racing prototype that features a hybrid 5.5-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine. The V-One concept utilizes a Dallara chassis and is capable of reaching 830 horsepower, though production remains dependent on demand from high-end collectors.
