Lamborghini’s Upcoming SCV12 Will Be The Most Powerful Bull Around

• The rear-wheel drive hypercar will sport a 830PS V12 paired with a six-speed sequential gearbox.

• It features a fully carbon-fibre chassis with custom-made slick Pirelli tires fitted on 19-inch front and 20-inch rear magnesium wheels.

• It gets a host of wizardry to make it more aerodynamically efficient and produce higher downforce levels than a GT3-spec race car.

• Will make its global debut later this year.

• Customers will become part of an exclusive club where  they will participate in advanced driving programmes around the world.

Lamborghini has dropped a bombshell on us by revealing teaser camouflage images of its upcoming SCV12 hypercar testing at the Paul Ricard circuit in France. This beast has been developed with the help of Lamborghini's 'Squadra Corse' motorsport division that not only participates in GT competitions around the world but also organises the Super Trofeo one-make championship. The SCV12 will be a track-only hypercar that will debut later this year. 

The main talking point of the SCV12 is under the hood. Lambo boasts that it will be its most powerful naturally aspirated V12 to date. The in-house designed V12 is claimed to deliver more than 830PS of power thanks to aerodynamic supercharging at high speed. The V12 will be paired to a six-speed sequential gearbox, with power being distributed to its rear wheels.  

Other technical wizardry in the SCV12 includes a push-rod rear suspension system and a fully carbon-fibre chassis that should not only boast good power-to-weight ratio, but also optimal handling characteristics while throwing it around a race track. Keeping this beast on the asphalt will be specially designed slick Pirelli rubber wrapped around 19-inch front and 20-inch rear magnesium wheels.

While the SCV12 isn’t technically an out and out race car, thanks to the development done by Lamborghini’s motorsport division, the SCV12 will produce better aerodynamic efficiency and higher downforce levels than a GT3-spec race car! And you can easily notice its aggressive aero design despite the camoflauge.  The front end features a double air intake and a central rib that directs airflow to the ram-air intake scoop on the roof. You also get treated to a prominent front splitter, vertical fins on the side gills and a large carbon-fibre rear wing that completes the racecar look.

 

Considering how extreme the Lamborghini SCV12 will be, it is obvious that it will be a limited edition hypercar that will be assembled  at the Lamborghini Squadra Corse factory in Sant’Agata Bolognese. To add to the exclusive factor, customers will become part of an exclusive club where  they will participate in advanced driving programmes around the world. Expect more details of the upcoming hypercar along with pricing details to be revealed as we get closer to its global debut.
