Carbon82 Moderator August 17, 2021 Share August 17, 2021 To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Countach (the history started with Project LP112 in 1971), Lamborghini decided to revive the nameplate on a limited-production hybrid model. Only 112 units of the Countach LPI 800-4, which has a naturally-aspirated 6.5-litre V12 engine with a 48-volt electric motor based on the technology of the Sián FKP 37, will be produced. The V12 engine of the Countach is as legendary as the design. Mounted longways at the rear together with its forward-cabin layout, the original Countach featured side-mounted radiators from Formula One; forward-facing gearbox and tubular spaceframe technology. It was as revolutionary in its approach to sports car engineering as in its astonishing looks, with its engine position chosen for weight distribution and balance and of course, the aspirated twelve cylinders delivering the most emotive top performance. The Countach developed the best available technologies to produce an extraordinary car: this visionary philosophy is reflected in the Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4, taking the pinnacle of current Lamborghini technologies and engineering to produce the performance expected from a Countach in 2021. "The engineering team that developed the original Countach advanced Lamborghini's pioneering technical approach, delivering unexpected innovations and the best performance available in a production car," says Lamborghini Chief Technology Officer Maurizio Reggiani. "That spirit inherently drives Lamborghini R&D, resulting in the pioneering hybrid technology in the LPI 800-4, and the emotive driving experience and top-line performance expected from a flagship V12 Lamborghini." The Lamborghini V12 6.5 liter engine, outputting 780 cv, is combined with a 48 volt e-motor mounted directly on the gearbox providing a further 34 cv for immediate response and increased performance: it is the innovative and unique architecture Lamborghini developed for Sián, that is the only mild-hybrid technology to create a direct connection between electric motor and wheels, preserving the pure V12 behavior. The e-motor is powered by a supercapacitor providing three times more power compared to a lithium-ion battery of the same weight. The monocoque chassis and all the body panels are in carbon fiber, provide the optimum lightweight solution as well as exceptional torsional stiffness: the Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 has a dry weight of 1595 kg for a dry weight to power ratio of 1,95 kg/cv. Visible exterior carbon fiber features are available in the front splitter, around the front window and wing mirrors, engine bonnet cover air intakes and rocker panel and it is always present in specific interior details. Moveable air vents produced by the state-of-the-art 3D printing technology, and a photocromatic roof - changing from solid to transparent at the push of a button - act as a reminder that this car, despite its historic inspiration, is a future automotive screensaver for the 21st century. ↡ Advertisement 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stratovarius Turbocharged August 17, 2021 Share August 17, 2021 Most vivid memory of seeing this car for the first time is Jackie Chan driving a (gold?) one and tackle a hovercraft. Can’t remember the details though. 😂 I missed the old times where his shows are sponsored by Mitsubishi. Now all we see from Mitsubishi is the 6 yr old outlander. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weez911 Supersonic August 17, 2021 Share August 17, 2021 (edited) Wow Countach (below) was a dream of mine since young. This new one has very big shoes to fill. Surprised that the circular exhaust pipes don't match the hexagonal rear lights in the new release. Edited August 17, 2021 by Weez911 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
