  • Lamborghini sold out until the end of 2023 Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae

    A crisis is a crisis, but the luxury car segment is doing well. Lamborghini is selling more than ever and getting better.

    In the first six months of 2022, the manufacturer from Sant'Agata delivered 5,090 cars. This is the best period in the history of the brand. The most important markets are the USA and China. If you order a car now, it will be on the road only in a year and a half. The queue could soon get significantly longer.

    First of all, the Urus range, which accounts for 61 percent of sales, will be refreshed. We will probably see a plug-in version, and unofficially there is also talk of a Performante version.

    Lamborghini intends to put into production a raised Huracán Sterrato, which will allow it to get off the asphalt. It's a very unusual structure, but that's why it can interest buyers who want to stand out.

  • The Lamborghini Squadra Corse announces a new model (VIDEO) Lamborghini Squadra Corse

    Last year, Lamborghini’s Squadra Corsa racing department introduced the SC20, a custom-designed speedster with a 6.5-liter V12 that can be found under the hood of the Avendator SVJ Roadster. The racing supercar is capable of producing 770 hp (566 kW) and 719 Nm of torque, and now Lamborghini’s racing division is working on its next creation.

    Although the details of the new mysterious Squadre Corsa project are still a secret, a short video announcement suggests that it is a track-only version of the Huracan Evo. As Jutarnji.hr reports, Lamborghini promises that its "latest motorsport car will offer an unprecedented experience".

    The rear end is dominated by a huge spoiler and diffuser, and an opening is visible on the roof that optimizes the air flow. The front and rear lights have been redesigned, and the video allows us to hear the sound of a natural V10 engine as well.

    Given that the Squadra Corse has already worked on the road-homologated Huracan WTO, we don’t expect this version to be legal for the trip. Instead, this is most likely Lamborghini’s new race car, but it remains unclear in which class it will compete.

    Currently, the Squadra Corse competes with the Huracan in international races in the GT3 class and the Super Trofeo series. In addition, it should be noted that Lamborghini recently celebrated the production of the 400th Huracan GT3, so this mysterious project could represent a turning point.

    If the new Huracan racer is not limited by motorsport regulations, it should produce significantly more horsepower than the road version of the Huracan Evo, which delivers 640 hp (471 kW) and 600 Nm of torque on the road.

    We won’t have to wait long for all the information about the Squadre Corsa project, given that Lamborghini has promised that the new supercar will “race” on the tracks soon.

  • The new Lamborghini Countach is officially unveiled The new Lamborghini Countach is officially unveiled

    It is a limited production hypercar that pays homage to the legendary model from the past, which has just celebrated its 50th anniversary. In essence, the new model with the designation LPI 800-4 adopts the design elements of the cult predecessor with the modern technology Siana FKP 37, which is based on the Aventador.

    Like all modern supercars with a bull badge, the LPI 800-4 retains its wedge shape, angular surfaces and specific doors. Interestingly, all of these design solutions also had a prototype Countach LP500 designed by Marcello Gandini in 1971. Three years later, the serial Countach with the LP400 label debuted.

    On the front, the most prominent are the trapezoidal lights, the straight nose and the rectangular suction cups, which are reminiscent of the later version of Countach from 1985. The wheel arches have a retro hexagonal shape, and inside them are placed wheels 20 inches in front, and 21 inches behind.

    Elements of the 1971 prototype can also be seen behind the slit-shaped side windows, the perscopio roof design and the rear windscreen. On the other hand, elements such as a huge air duct and upper suction cups on wide "shoulders" are more reminiscent of later versions from the late 80's.

    The hexagonal taillights are borrowed from the Sian, but the rest of the rear uses a simpler approach with an integrated carbon fiber diffuser with a quadruple exhaust end. There is no visible rear spoiler, but the lines suggest an active spoiler, although Lamborghini did not reveal anything about active aerodynamics.

    In addition to the carbon fiber monocoque, the LPI 800-4 with the Sian also shares an atmospheric 6.5-liter V12 with hybrid technology. It produces 780 hp in the new Countach, while the 48-volt electric motor generates an additional 34 hp.

    According to the Auto Club, power is transmitted via a seven-speed automatic to all four wheels. As in Xi'an, the energy from the regenerative braking system is stored in a supercapacitor that is lighter than a classic lithium-ion battery.

    From Lamborghini, they announce acceleration to 100 km / h in 2.8 seconds, from 0-200 km / h in 8.6 seconds and a top speed of 355 km / h. These are the same performances that Sian FKP 37 and Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae have.

    The Countach LPI 800-4 is presented with a red and black leather interior, however Lamborghini points out that every customer will be able to choose between four traditional exterior colors and four interior configurations.

    As it was announced, a total of only 112 copies will be produced. Prices have not been revealed, but the LPI 800-4 should be positioned between Aventador and Siano FKP 37. The first deliveries are expected early next year.
