Lamborghini introduces Fenomeno, its fastest road supercar ever

Lamborghini’s booth at the Monterey Car Week starred the Fenomeno, a hybrid supercar with Revuelto at the base, but more power and acceleration than ever.

Underpinning the ride is a 6.5-liter, naturally aspirated V12 now capable of 845 PS (833 hp / 621 kW). That’s 20 PS (20 hp / 15 kW) more than the Revuelto had. The electric motor has also been upgraded and paired with a larger 7-kWh battery pack (up from 3.8 kWh). As a result, the combined output to the wheels has grown to 1,080 PS (1,065 hp / 794 kW).

The Fenomeno can sprint from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.4 seconds, being one-tenth of a second faster than its donor. It can also reach 350 km/h (217 mph) in a straight line and run 40 kilometers (25 miles) on electricity alone. While not much, it’s twice as good as the Revuelto, and helps keep the weight down.

On the outside, the Fenomeno boasts a much bolder and expressive body with Y-shaped brake lights, a huge single exhaust nozzle at the back and a pronounced diffuser. The front end is also considerably different, but you can see the Revuelto heritage in the shape and the configuration of the air intakes.

The interior layout looks broadly identical to the Revuelto, but the fit-and-finish is completely new all around.
