Lamborghini Centenario LP770-4 is Lambo’s definition of a hyper car

Lamborghini has revealed a few details about the highly anticipated Lamborghini Centenario LP770-4 ahead of the car’s debut at the Geneva Motor Show.

Based on the Aventador (Veneno shown above) and created to commemorate the 100^th anniversary of Ferrucci Lamborghini’s birthday, the limited edition model gets bespoke styling and an assortment of lightweight components.

No further details were released but Lamborghini Research & Development Director, Maurizio Reggiani told Auto Motor und Sport “The Centenario is our definition of a hyper car.”

As with all Lamborghini’s, the clue to the Centenario’s power output is hidden in its name, with the Aventador’s uprated 6.5-litre V12 engine punching out 770 bhp (566kW). Power is transferred to all four wheels via a seven-speed ISR transmission that enables the car to gallop from 0-100km/h in 2.7 seconds, enroute to a top speed in excess of 350km/h.

Lamborghini will only be building 40 units of the hyper car, with half designated to be coupes, while the other half being convertibles.

Although the Centenario LP770-4 is expected to cost an eye-watering €2.2 million (A$3.53M), all cars have already been accounted for.
