Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 on the road for the first time

From the first to the last edition, three generations to a timeless icon celebrate together.

For the first time since its unveiling at Pebble Beach on August 13, the Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 has taken to the road. The brand-new super sports car was accompanied by two of its most important predecessors: the first Countach LP 400 and the last 25th Anniversary Countach produced.

The Countach LPI 800-4 produces a total output of 814 hp; it is powered by a Lamborghini 6.5-litre V12 engine, delivering 780 hp, combined with a 48-volt electric motor mounted directly on the gearbox, which provides an additional 34 hp of power for instant response and increased performance.

The electric motor is powered by a supercapacitor that gives three times more power than a lithium-ion battery of equal weight.

The car will be produced in a limited edition of just 112 units, all of which were already sold before its presentation. The number of units is a reference to “LP 112”, the project name used internally during the development of the original Lamborghini Countach.

Deliveries of the Countach LPI 800-4 will start from the first quarter of 2022 to customers around the world, who will have the privilege of driving a piece of automotive history reinvented for the future.
