Based on the leaked patent images (gallery below) that surfaced earlier this month, German publication AutoBild has accurately rendered the upcoming Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4. To be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show early next month, the Centenario LP 770-4 celebrates a certain centenary; that of company founder Ferruccio Lamborghini, who turned 100 in 2016.
Based on the Aventador, the new Centenario will make 770 horsepower from the 6.5-litre, naturally aspirated V12 engine – 30 more than the outrageous Veneno/Aventador SV, 50 more than the 50° Anniversario edition Aventador, and 70 more than stock. The Centenario will retain the Aventador’s all-wheel drive system and the 7-speed automated manual transmission.
Unconfirmed performance credentials suggest a 0-100 kph sprint time of just 2.7 seconds, and a top speed in excess of 350 kph. An extremely limited run of 20 coupes and 10 roadsters are expected, while the reported price – at $2.38 million each, makes the Centenario LP 770-4 less expensive than the Veneno.
