Lamborghini unveils the 63 Edition Roadster

Lamborghini has a surprise waiting for its fans at the Pebble Beach show. The company will soon be unveiling a what it calls the 63 Edition Roadster, a supercar series based on the open-top Aventador SVJ.

Guests of the show received leaflets with the teaser pic printed on them: an Aventador engine cover with the inspcription ’63 Edition’ on it. Perhaps 63 refers to the total production run.

The regular Aventador draws its power from a 6.5-liter V12 engine rated at 770 horsepower (574 kilowatts) and 720 Newton-meters (531 pound-feet) of torque. It sends that power to all four wheels, sprints 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 2.9 seconds and tops out at 350 km/h (217 mph). The special edition is unlikely to be any different in this regard.

On a side note, Lamborghini had initially planned to bring a 1,000-hp (745-kW) strong hybrid hypercar to this year’s Pebble Beach, but ultimately postponed the premiere until September.
