► New Lamborghini Fenomeno revealed
► Hybrid V12 is a ‘few off’ creation
► Launches at 2025’s Monterey Car Week
Lamborghini’s latest limited-edition model has arrived: this is the Fenomeno. This ‘few off’ hypercar makes its public debut during 2025’s Monterey Car Week.
The Fenomeno follows on from the reborn Countach LPI 800-4, the Sian, Centenario and more beyond. It’s based on the Revuelto, with Lambo saying it’s a ‘design manifesto’ that ‘takes the brand’s most representative stylistic elements to the extreme.’ It also happens to have the most powerful V12 in the brand’s history.
There is, for example, an S-duct air system inspired by the Huracan GT3 car that flows air from the front splitter over the car and feeding it directly into the roof air intake. Lambo also claims the new side air vents improve cooling by 30 per cent ‘compared to a series production Lamborghini V12.’ Bespoke turbine wheels are wrapped in super low profile Bridgestone Potenza Sport rubber.
Little seems all that different compared to a Revuelto inside, with the same steering wheel, infotainment system and passenger display. Bucket sport seats are fitted and, naturally, the Fenomeno can be personalised to within an inch of its carbonfibre-clad life.
And, yes, it also has the most powerful iteration of Lamborghini’s V12. On its own, the engine develops 824bhp. Naturally, given this is heavily based on the Revuelto with its hybrid powertrain, the Fenomeno develops a total of 1065bhp. The Fenomeno claims a 2.4sec 0-62mph time, with a 0-124mph sprint over with in 6.7 seconds.
Stonking power requires brakes to match, so the Fenomeno includes carbon ceramic brakes. Other tasty handling engineering includes ‘manually calibrated’ shock absorbers. All of that carbonfibre also means Lamborghini can claim the best power-to-weight ratio of any production car in its history.
Lambo says just 29 are being commissioned.
