Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4

This article is about the model introduced in 2021. For the original 1974–1990 model, see Lamborghini Countach.

The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 is a limited-production mid-engine hybrid-electric sports car produced by the Italian automotive manufacturer Lamborghini and designed by its head of design Mitja Borkert. Unveiled on 14 August 2021, the car is inspired and named after the original Countach which was first introduced 50 years prior. Based on the hybridized powertrain of the Sián FKP 37, 112 units are planned to be produced, the number referring to the LP 112 model designation used during development of the original Countach.^[5][6]

Specifications and performance

The Countach LPI 800-4 shares its underpinnings and mechanicals with the Sián FKP 37 which was unveiled in 2019. It utilizes the same carbon-fiber monocoque along with the same mild hybrid powertrain with a slightly decreased combined output of 599 kW (814 PS; 803 hp) powering all four wheels.^[4] It is a combination of the longitudinally positioned (LP) naturally-aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine which in this case produces 574 kW (780 PS; 770 hp), along with a 48-volt electric motor producing an additional 25 kW (34 PS; 34 hp) which is located inside the 7-speed automated manual transmission. Energy from the regenerative braking system is stored in a supercapacitor which is lighter than a traditional lithium-ion battery.^[8] The dry weight is 1,595 kg (3,516 lb), with the percentage split 43-57 front-to-rear.^[9]

Lamborghini claimed the car is capable of 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) acceleration in 2.8 seconds, 0–200 km/h (0–124 mph) in 8.6 seconds and a top speed of 355 km/h (221 mph).^[10][11]
