The upcoming Lamborghini flagship is making more frequent appearances as we move closer to its debut in 2024. The spy photographers got closer than ever to a new prototype, catching a glimpse of its digital instrument cluster and interior while they were there.
The new dash has an 8,500 rpm redline for
the mid-mounted V12 engine as shown from the shot of the digital instrument
cluster. From the graphics, it is evident that the driver has selected the
“Citta” (Italian for City) settings and a “Hybrid” driving mode. Perhaps he
wanted to test the daily-driving characteristics of the supercar before taking
it to the track.
The instrument cluster reveals more
information about the upcoming supercar including the active rear aero which
appears to send some sort of an error in the system. More importantly, there is
a lane-centering function included in the ADAS suite, likely combined with
adaptive cruise control for semi-autonomous driving on the highway. Our spy
photographers told us there were two screens on the inclined center console –
supposedly for the infotainment system and the climate controls.
From the outside, the new Lamborghini
reveals more of its aggressive styling and it is now wearing the production
lighting units on both ends. At the front, the supercar gains the split
headlight treatment with Diablo-style DRLs above the bumper intakes. The
profile is more sculpted than ever before featuring multiple inlets and flying
buttresses. At the back, the highlight is the dual hexagon tailpipes which are
placed between the Y-shaped LED taillights.
We already know that the supercar will be
fitted with a hybrid V12, making it the first electrified series-production
model from Sant Agata. According to the latest rumors, the combined setup from
the plug-in hybrid powertrain will be between 800-900 hp. If those reports are
true, the yet-unnamed model will be more powerful than the Lamborghini
Aventador SVJ which produced 760 hp from its non-electrified V12.
The all-new Lamborghini is expected to
debut on March 2023, serving as a replacement for the discontinued Aventador.
It will be followed by more electrified models including the successor to the
Huracan, and the PHEV variant of the Urus SUV, both set to arrive before 2024.
