The Italian Hypercar Automobili Estrema surprises with a visionary step: in a creative alliance with the well-known 3D artist Fabian Oberhammer, alias "The Dizzy Viper", the Fulminea project is artistically expanded - and combined with digital art via NFTs. This unusual collaboration brings together high-tech, design and culture on an unprecedented level.
NFT meets Hypercar: the "Fulminea Dystopia" project
The first collaboration consists of the publication of a series of NFT artworks under the title "Fulminea Dystopia".
It kicks off with two paintings entitled "Only Survivor: Fulminea", which are part of a 10-part series.
The motifs show the all-electric Fulminea Hypercar in post-apocalyptic settings - a dystopian vision that impressively combines reality and fiction. The aim of the series is to unite digital collectible art with the automotive design of the future and actively involve the community in the Fulminea project.

"Estrema Fulminea Original" - GTA homage for fans
Another highlight of the collaboration is the "Estrema Fulminea Original " project - a playful adaptation of the Fulminea, inserted into a scenario inspired by the video game Grand Theft Auto V.
A Hypercar called "Överflöd Pipistrello" appears in the game - clearly based on the Estrema design. Oberhammer picks up on this pop culture reference and combines it with satirical, artistic imagery.
Art with impact: NFT proceeds for series development
According to CEO Gianfranco Pizzuto, the proceeds from both projects will be used to support the Fulminea prototype. In collaboration with a development partner from the Turin area, the road version of the electric hypercar is to be ready for series production by 2026.
Pizzuto is delighted:
"I am proud to be working with Fabian. His visual signature gives the project an emotional depth that fits perfectly with Fulminea."
Fabian Oberhammer, who shares digital automotive art on Instagram every day (over 180,000 followers), is also euphoric:
"It is an honor to breathe visual life into the Fulminea. I am delighted to be part of this visionary project."
Review: What is the Estrema Fulminea?

Acceleration 0-100 km/h in under 2 seconds
Top speed: over 350 km/h

It is the first Hypercar in the world with a combined solid-state battery pack - a revolution in technology and weight.
Conclusion: The Fulminea will (also) be art
The collaboration between Automobili Estrema and The Dizzy Viper is more than just marketing: it is a symbiosis of digital art, NFT technology and Hypercar - a project that not only electrifies collectors and fans, but also shows what automotive culture can look like in the 21st century.
