TheLamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 is a limited-productionmid-enginehybrid-electricsports car produced by the Italian automotive manufacturerLamborghini and designed by its head of design Mitja Borkert. Unveiled on 14 August 2021, the car is inspired by and named after the originalCountach, which was first introduced 50 years prior. Based on the hybridized powertrain of theSián FKP 37, 112 units were produced, the number referring to the LP 112 model designation used during development of the original Countach.[5][6]
All 112 units had been sold less than a week after the model was unveiled. Customer deliveries commenced in early 2022.[7]
The Countach LPI 800-4 shares its underpinnings and mechanicals with theSián FKP 37 which was unveiled in 2019. It utilizes the same carbon-fiber monocoque along with the samemild 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 thelongitudinally positioned (LP) naturally-aspirated 6.5-literV12 engine which in this case produces 574 kW (780 PS; 770 hp), along with a 48-voltelectric motor producing an additional 25 kW (34 PS; 34 hp) which is located inside the 7-speedautomated manual transmission. Energy from theregenerative braking system is stored in asupercapacitor which is lighter than a traditionallithium-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]
