Lamborghini celebrates its 60th birthday with 251 cars at Suzuka Circuit

This year, the Italian car manufacturer Lamborghini celebrates its 60th birthday. On this occasion, he exhibited 251 cars at the Suzuka race track, from the first production model 350 GT to the Countach LPI 800-4, which will premiere in 2021. It was the largest exhibition of any car manufacturer ever seen.

Among the many cars, you could see Islero and Countach models restored by Polo Storico. There were also the Huracan STO and Aventador SVJ models, but also the special Huracan Sterrato designed for off-road.

The all-terrain super sports car Lamborghini Sterrato will be the last Lamborghini with an internal combustion engine. It is powered by a centrally located naturally aspirated 5.2 L V10 engine with 610 hp (449 kW) and 413 lb-ft (560 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 162 mph (260 km/h). Lamborghini will produce 1,499 units of this model.

Although it was previously announced that the last Lamborghini with a V12 engine will be the Ultimae model, recently the Italian manufacturer has decided to introduce two new cars that will be powered by a V12 engine, the Lamborghini Invencible and the Lamborghini Autentica.

Under the hood, which is taken from the Essenza SCV12, will be the most powerful version of the V12 engine ever installed in a Lamborghini. It is a 6.5-liter V12 engine with 769 hp at 8,500 rpm and 531 lb-ft (720 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via a seven-speed ISR gearbox.

Also, the previous years were very successful for Lamborghini, when it comes to sales. In 2022, the manufacturer made a record sale of 9,242 cars, which is a 10 percent increase compared to 2021. This shows that Lamborghini is on the right track and 2023 could be very successful as well.
