We start the lineup with a new addition to the Car Transporter group: a fast looking Ferrari. Ferrari is certainly no stranger to LEGO sets, as the first licensed set appeared back in 1997, and has spanned themes like LEGO® City, LEGO® Speed Champions and even LEGO® DUPLO®.
It is surprising that it took the label until 2021 to reach LEGO Technic, and that the FXX K is only the 4th Technic set to carry the Ferrari license. Worth noting, however, is that there are some sets like 8674 Ferrari F1 Racer 1:8, 8653 Enzo Ferrari and 8145 Ferrari 599 GTN Fiorano 1:10 which are from the LEGO® Racers theme, but consist mostly of LEGO Technic elements.
New molds
Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 9 x 1 x 3 (6618)
The rear arches of the Ferrari are very straight, warranting a new mudguard to capture the shape truthfully. For this, Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 9 x 1 x 3 is introduced, appearing 2x in Red (6508526 | 6618).
Over the years, we’ve seen a growing selection of mudguard panels, and this addition has two direct siblings, seen in the image above. The closest match is Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 9 x 2 x 3 (42531, shown in lime) which has the same profile, but the top is curved back, adding an extra stud in depth. Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 9 x 2 x 3, Arched Top (2459, black) has the same width and arch at the underside, but the top is curved, and the pin holes are in a different position.
Technic Panel Fairing 2 x 3 x 1 #4 Angled 135° (7427)
The nose of the Ferrari is too pointy for existing panels to capture, so a new addition to the 2-module wide panel family has been added, appearing printed in red (6556040 | 114291).
The panel is a sibling of Technic Panel Fairing 2 x 3 x 1 #3 Angled 157.5° (2457), seen above in blue. Where the angle of this panel matches Technic Connector #3, the new panel matched Technic Connector #4. Conveniently, the panels received the same serial number as the connectors.
With 5 more connectors present, the question now is: will these get their winged version too?
Recolors
It won’t surprise you most recolors appear in red:
- 4x Technic Panel Curved 3 x 9 in Red (6563618 | 5427)
- 3x Technic Panel Fairing 2 x 5 x 1 in Red (6523807 | 7101)
- 4x Slope 1 x 6 x 1 with 1 x 2 x 1/3 Cutout in Red (6563619 | 4569)
- 2x Technic Beam 2 x 3 Thick [90° Offset Centre Beam Hole] in Black (6563620 | 3167)
- 4x Technic Pin Connector Hub with 2 Perpendicular Axles in Red (6563615 | 10197)
- 1x Axle Hose, Soft 11L in Light Bluish Gray (6566344 | 32199)
- 2x Technic Link 1 x 4 with Stoppers in Light Bluish Gray (6565467 | 6610).
- 6x Technic Pin Connector 3L with 2 Pins and Center Hole [Pin Ridges Across Part] in Blue (6563616 | 46189)
- 2x Technic Beam 2 x 3 Thick [90° Offset Centre Beam Hole] in Black (6563620 | 3167)
Decorations
The only decorated element is the newly molded panel I’ve already discussed. All other decorations are handled by a large sticker sheet.
Rare elements
Aside from new elements, there are some other worth mentioning:
- 3 x Technic Panel Fairing #10 Medium Triangle Smooth in Red (6534283 | 2403) and
- 3 x Technic Panel Fairing #9 Medium Triangle Smooth in Red (6513887 | 2395) have both appeared only once before in 42202 Ducati Panigale V4 S Motorcycle.
- 6 x Technic Panel Fairing #7 3L Very Small Smooth, Side A in Red (6408165,6510988 | 2387) and
- 6 x Technic Panel Fairing #8 3L Very Small Smooth, Side B in Red (6513871, 6408166 | 2389) appeared in 3 sets prior
- 1 x Technic Beam 1 x 9 Thin with 3 Holes in Flat Silver (6453350 | 4586) has appeared in 2 sets
- 1 x Axle Hose, Soft 7L in Light Bluish Gray (6363530 | 32580) was seen in a single set back in 2021
The finished model
The build is nothing too spectacular, especially if you’ve built more cars in this scale.
The V12 is so big, the rear axle needs to take a step back to put the wheels in the right place. As usually in this scale, there are some tricks to get all sections under the right angle, like using a half-pin.
Halfway through the build, the chassis is mostly finished, covered in tiles that I repeatedly had to re-apply during the build.
The most interesting section is the doors, with a lot of different parts recreating the air-intakes and allowing them to hinge open. Note the white and green part picked ‘coincidentally’ in these colors here, while staying out of sight in the finished model.
The finished model looks great, although there are a number of gaps and nooks messing up the sleek lines of the FXX. The rear can be opened up to show the engine. I found the construction of this section not too stable; it’s not really flimsy, but I often found parts moving when pushing in new parts. Not all parts are fully locked in place too, allowing for some movement. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it did get annoying at a certain point.
Although I am usually not a fan of models with a lot of stickers, they do add a lot to this model, without distracting from it, nor the model fully relying on them.
With 897 parts for a RRP of US$64.99/ £54.99/ 59.99€/ AU$99.99, the set brings good value for MOC builders in need of red panels. Overall, for me this is ‘another car in the bunch’, with little standing out. For those who are more in tune with supercars, what are your thoughts?
42213 Ford Bronco SUV

New molds
Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 9 x 1 x 3 (6618) and Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 9 x 2 x 4 Half Circle (6616)
The Bronco uses the same new panels as the Ferrari does, appearing 4x in red (6508526 | 6618).
The panels are widened by inserting another new panel, Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 9 x 2 x 4 Half Circle, which appears 4x in black (6508524 | 6616). As shown in the Ferrari review above, part 6618 shares the underneath arch with parts 42531 and 2459, and the new black insert fits those panels as well.
Tyre 55.9 x 22 (6620)
The bulky looks of the Bronco require beefy tyres, which we get 5x as Tyre 55.9 x 22 in black (6508528 | 6620). The tyre fits the standard rim Wheel 30.4 x 20 (56145), meaning it has the same inner diameter as Tyre 56 x 26 Tractor (70695, seen above left) and Tyre 43.2 x 22 ZR (44309, on the right). As you can see, the Bronco tyre is nearly the same size as the tractor version, and it’s great to have an option in that size with a more standard thread.
Recolors
The set brings us 4 elements in a new color, all in red.
- 2x Technic Pin Connector Hub with 2 Axles in Red (6555339 | 27940)
- 2x Technic Axle and Pin Connector Angled #7 - 168.75° in Red (6555340 | 4450)
- 5x Technic Beam 1 x 9 Thick with Alternating Holes in Red (6549311 | 6612)
- 1x Technic Panel Fairing 2 x 5 x 1 in Red (6523807 | 7101)
Decorations
There are no decorated elements to be found in the set, and we get a moderate-sized sticker sheet, half of which can easily be left of the finished model.
Rare elements
- 6 x 2477 Technic Beam 3 x 5 L-Shape with Alternating Holes in Red (6528688 | 2477) has been seen in 1 other regular set
- 4 x 5997 Technic Steering Arm 3 x 1 with Towball Socket in Black (6506201 | 5997) was introduced in the F1 sets in the March Technic wave. For more details, read our part analysis for these sets here.
- 2 x 6610 Technic Link 1 x 4 with Stoppers in Black (6508518 | 6610) has appeared in a single set.
The build
Where the Ferrari is very low and sleek, the Bronco is much higher and bulkier, resulting in plenty of room for more technical workings. We start off with a standard V6.
More interesting stuff can be found behind (or rather; in front of) the engine, as the front wheels incorporate both suspension and steering. A sideways mounted shock absorber brings the suspension, while the recently introduced 3x1 steering arms are put to good use to hold the wheels. The final touch is a simple steering rack. I’ve built various Car Transporter cars, and this section alone trumps most of them in the LEGO Technic sense.
The rear wheels have suspension as well, with the wheels mounted on a rack which is connected to two shock absorbers.
The front and back are joined together, and we get an impressively long chassis. The gears between the two vertical black beams bring the steering from the spare tyre in the rear all the way to the front wheels, while a lower axle connects the rear wheels to the engine.
Then it’s time to add the outer skin. Due to the boxy shape of the Bronco, this section is pretty straightforward, but I did notice this trick where the half-plate of a half-pin, a tile with pin and a panel results in a single module.
I’ve made a short video to show off the steering and suspension:
The finished model
Halfway through the final bag we have a finished standard version of the Bronco.
There is an option to add a roof rack with lights and bridges, but for me it breaks the looks of the model. Still, it’s always nice to get different options.
For me, this is the best Car Transporter-scaled car I have built so far, mainly because it (literally) stands out among all the fast cars. Due to its size, the designers packed a lot more LEGO Technic parts underneath the bodywork, which I prefer over nice lines on a sports car.
The Ferrari was already nicely priced with 897 parts for US$64.99/ £54.99/ 59.99€/ AU$99.99, and the Bronco brings us 46 more parts for the same RRP.
42214 Lamborghini Revuelto Super Sports Car

Price:
- US$ 189.99 on LEGO.com US
- CA$ 229.99 on LEGO.com Canada
- GB£ 159.99 on LEGO.com UK

The final car in our list is a bit bigger in size, part count, and most importantly: price.
LEGO Lamborghinis were introduced in LEGO Racers in 2009 and 2010. It took ten years for the brand to return, both in LEGO Speed Champions and LEGO Technic, including in supercar form as 42115 Lamborghini Sián FKP 37. The Revuelto is introduced this year both in LEGO Technic form and LEGO Speed Champions as 77238 Lamborghini Revuelto & Huracán STO.
New molds
The new molds in this set can be divided into 3 categories: new, new size and remake.
Antenna 4 x 2 x 2 with 2 Prongs, Axle (7574)
The true new mold is a curious one, but looks to have potential for creating futuristic habitats and vehicles. It certainly feels like it’s been created for this model specifically, and I wonder if we'll see it again in other sets.
Despite its seemingly random shape, it does adhere to LEGO® System measurements, as a triangle road sign fits neatly between the prongs, and the antenna section minus the axle spans 4 modules.
We get 2 of this mold in Glow in Dark White (6560648 | 7574). Hopefully it will appear on Pick a Brick, as I'm anxious to see what interesting geometrical shapes can be made with this mold in bulk.
Rechargeable Battery with Pin Holes & Hub, Powered Up 16 x 9 x 6 with 3 Motors, 6 Lights, No Ports, Pin Holes
Last year, LEGO Technic introduced a new Powered Up hub with 3 motors built in (6460292 | 105203) along with a rechargeable battery (6538576 | 112443), presenting a ready-to-use base for remote controlled cars. So far, this hub is only used in 42176 Porsche GT4 e-Performance. New Elementary didn’t review this set, but I have examined the hub in a blog article on Rebrickable.
The Lambo features the same system, but both the hub and the battery have received an update. The battery (6549588 | 113558) has received 2 pin holes. In the images above, the battery on the left is the old 109481, and on the right is the updated 113558.
Similarly, the hub (6549603 | 113926) has received 2 shallow pinholes. In the first image above you see the old version 103479, and in the second image is the new 113926.
These pinholes allow for the battery to be secured in place with two pins. According to the latest version of the building instructions for set 42176, this set now also features the updated hub and battery. Why this update? Maybe it’s a new legal requirement, making it harder for small children to pull the battery out? Or maybe there were consumer complaints about the battery vibrating loose while driving the car?
All I know is I would rather have seen a firmware update allowing the hub to be connected to Pybricks, or at least be available in the LEGO Powered Up app. Being able to charge the battery while in function would be useful too. RacingBrick mentions in his comparison video that the hubs can be swapped out between both sets without the app noticing, so it appears the pin holes are the only change, and internally things have stayed the same.
Cable, Fiber Optics, Wide 9L (114663)
These cables are not really new, but appear 2x + 2 spare new in the new length 9L in Trans-Clear (6569366 | 114663).
Recolors
If you’re in need of light bluish grey panels, this may be the set for you!
- 2x Technic Panel Car Mudguard Arched 11 x 5 x 2, Arched Top in Light Bluish Gray (6575686 | 3538)
- 4x Technic Panel Triangle 5 x 4 Left in Light Bluish Gray (6575691 | 80278)

- 1x Technic Panel Fairing #8 3L Very Small Smooth, Side B in Trans-Red (6569146 | 2389)
Decorations
There are no decorated elements in this set, but we do get 2 sticker sheets. I like the small detail of the stickers numbered #7 being applied on Technic Panel #7, and in kind stickers #8 are applied on Technic Panel #8.
Rare elements
Aside from new elements, there are some other worth mentioning due their scarce appearances.
Appearing in just a single set prior to the release of set 42214 are:
- 2 x Cable, Fiber Optics, Wide 28L / 22.4cm in Trans-Clear (6496831 | 109497)

- 1 x Technic Panel Fairing #8 3L Very Small Smooth, Side B in Trans-Clear (6426596, 6513876 | 2389)
The build
The build starts with the hub in the rear, driving the rear wheels directly. An axle runs to the front for steering. That's it for the LEGO Technic functions of this set!
At this point, we need to do a quick check in the app to see if we connected everything correctly, which can be seen in the video at the end of the review.
The rest of the build is extending the chassis and adding the bodywork. The lights are also hooked up.
From the first LEGO Technic set with (electrical) wires, I’ve always enjoyed looping cables through a build, and adding light to them makes it even better. The front lights have to travel a long way, and the first section is covered to prevent light leaking out. I think it might be better to cover the rest of the cables too?
The rear lights leak a lot, making it harder to see the red. But those cables are twisted much more, maybe the ribbed hoses couldn’t make the bend?
Note that there are 4 lights in the car, but 6 lights on the hub: like with set 42176, two lights remain unused.
With the cables in place, the panelwork starts. The front lights do indeed use triangle road signs, and the antennas are exactly the right length to reach them. I assume the antenna was designed based upon its usage here.
The road signs are mounted on a single pin, and need to be realigned repeatedly, as do the mirrors and some other panels.
With the engine cover and roof added, we get a nice looking car. Only the doors are missing now. These come as a loose assembly, held in place by 2 pins and can’t be opened.
The door on the driver side needs to be removed to provide access to the charging port for the battery.
There are some issues, especially with the stickers. A number of them are meant to represent the continued black line across the bottom of the car, broken up by some light bluish grey parts. The stickers are way too small to cover the parts, leaving just a small square instead.
The finished model
The finished model looks great, and seems a good representation of the Lamborghini Revuelto as far as my non-petrol head eyes can determine. My main priority is driving the car though, so I took it out for a quick spin through our yard.
The car drives fine over a flat surface with a decent turning cycle but clumsy handling using the app. The speed is as expected from Powered Up – not very high, with third party motors outshining them by far, but kids can have fun with the set.
There are many aspects to this set, and determining if it's worth purchasing fully depends on your preferences. With an RRP of US$189.99/ £159.99/ 179.99€/ AU$299.99 for 1135 parts, we get a Euro price per part of 15.9 cents, which is pretty high.
This can easily be explained: it's the hub and battery. However, comparing it to the only other set featuring these pricey parts, set 42176 Porsche GT4 e-Performance, this is the better choice if you are looking to get your hands on the hub and battery as 42176 is 20.4 cents per part.
The set comes with a great selection of both new and rare light bluish grey panels, making it a great parts pack. If you’re not interested in electronics, these panels definitely don’t come cheap, so in that case you’re probably better off waiting for them to become available as loose parts.
For me, the lack of many LEGO Technic features deters me from being really interested in this set, but if you are looking for a fun car to play with, this has the basics of one.
The major issue is flexibility: the car drives fine using the Control+ app, but that is the only option. I’m not a fan of controlling vehicles using a touch screen, and prefer a physical control like the train remotes instead.
Unfortunately, the hub can’t be used in other apps for custom programming; neither the official Powered Up nor third-party options like Pybricks. Creating your own car or other MOC will need to fit within the limits of the app: you can create your own body, but if the setup differs too much from the set version, the calibration won’t work, rendering the hub useless. That lack of customization severely limits the option of the hub and the set, which is a big shame.
