A high-octane video of Lamborghini’s
latest hypercar testing on the dyno has hit the web thanks to Roadshow. The
vehicle featured in this clip is the same one that Lamborghini Squadra Corse
teased back in late October, 2019. A close look at the video indicates the V12
engine has the same firing order as the Aventador’s 6.5-liter V12 so it seems
apparent the new hypercar’s engine will be roughly the same.
However, we know that a series of upgrades
will lift power up to a monstrous 830 hp. Elsewhere, we can see that the
vehicle sports complex in-board Öhlins suspension as well as big Brembo brakes
and centerlock wheels.
When first previewing the car late last
year, Lamborghini Squadra Corse said it features a carbon fiber monocoque and
an aluminum front frame. The V12 engine is supported by a steel roll cage while
a new six-speed sequential transmission handles gear shifts and can be heard
firing off lightning-fast changes in this dyno video. Then there’s the sound.
The car howls in an even more impressive way than the Aventador SVJ.
From a visual perspective, we know the car
will feature all-new bodywork unlike any other Lamborghini before it and
include a prominent roof scoop as well as a towering rear wing. A member on the
McLaren Life forums said last year the vehicle teased will be dubbed the ‘SVR’
and limited to just 40 units worldwide. It will be unveiled this summer as a
track-only weapon.
