1,065-HP Lamborghini Fenomeno Roadster Is Its Fastest Open Top Model

Lamborghini unveiled the Fenomeno Roadster, a 1,065hp hybrid hypercar with only 15 units planned, all pre-ordered by collectors, at its Imola circuit event. The model combines a 6.5-liter V12 with YASA’s electric motors, achieving 0-62 mph in 2.4 seconds and a top speed of 211 mph, marking Lamborghini’s push for electrified performance over full electrification.

Lamborghini introduced the Fenomeno Roadster, its fastest open-top model ever, at the second Lamborghini Arena event held at Italy’s Imola circuit. The hypercar, part of Lamborghini’s ultra-low-volume ‘Few-Off’ strategy, will produce only 15 units, all already allocated to hand-selected collectors. The Fenomeno Roadster combines a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine with a hybrid system featuring three electric motors from the UK’s YASA, delivering a combined 1,065 horsepower. The car is designed for extreme performance, with Lamborghini claiming a 0-62 mph acceleration time of 2.4 seconds and a top speed exceeding 211 mph. Its hybrid drivetrain is derived from the Revuelto plug-in hybrid supercar but features bespoke chassis and aerodynamic modifications, including extensive use of carbon fiber to reduce weight. The design prioritizes aerodynamics and downforce, with an elongated rear section and sharp surfacing inspired by aircraft silhouettes. Unlike many luxury brands transitioning to fully electric vehicles, Lamborghini continues to emphasize hybridized internal combustion powertrains, particularly its signature V12 engine. The Fenomeno Roadster represents the latest evolution of Lamborghini’s limited-production lineage, following models like the Reventón Roadster, Veneno Roadster, and Sián Roadster. Each of these ‘Few-Off’ models serves as a design and technology showcase, reinforcing Lamborghini’s commitment to exclusivity and performance innovation. The Fenomeno Roadster’s carbon-fiber body features aggressive aerodynamic elements and structural reinforcements to compensate for the absence of a roof. Lamborghini design chief Mitja Borkert noted the car’s instantly recognizable silhouette, blending aerodynamics with iconic automotive styling. While based on the Revuelto platform, the roadster includes entirely new front and rear subframes, as well as a carbon-fiber monocoque adapted for the open-top configuration, ensuring both rigidity and performance.
