Recently, information about the upcoming release of the Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 has been posted online by official sources, along with a teaser video available at https://upload.42how.com/article/Lamborghini%20Teases%20New%20Countach%20LPI%20800-4%20Supercar_20210812181532.mp4.
From the method of naming this vehicle, several points of information can be discerned:
-
With the 800 horsepower of its dependable engine, it is positioned between the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae and the Sián FKP 37.
-
Meanwhile, the name itself indicates it is a tribute to the Countach, which inspired an entire generation of supercars.
-
LPI, which stands for Longitudinale Posteriore Ibrido in Italian, indicating longitudinal engine placement and hybridization. The addition of the letter I suggests it is also partially electrified.
The Aventador Ultimae is the ultimate version of Lamborghini’s regular flagship model, Aventador, featuring a pure petrol V12 engine and 780 horsepower.
On the other hand, the limited-edition Sián FKP 37 is powered by a naturally aspirated V12 engine and a 48V super-capacitor hybrid system, delivering a maximum power of 818 horsepower.
The Countach LPI 800-4 will make its debut at the Monterey Car Week event on August 15th, and is expected to be Lamborghini’s last product before entering the era of battery hybrids.
