This is exactly the kind of car Lamborghini should still be building.

At the second edition of Lamborghini Arena in Imola, the brand revealed the Fenomeno Roadster, an ultra-limited Few-Off open-top supercar with a 1080 CV V12 hybrid powertrain and a production run of just 15 units. That makes it the most powerful open-top Lamborghini ever created.

A V12 hybrid with 1080 CV

The Fenomeno Roadster is built around Lamborghini’s new-generation electrified V12 architecture. At its centre sits a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12, supported by three electric motors. Together, the system delivers 1080 CV, making this open-top Few-Off model one of the most extreme road cars ever created in Sant’Agata.

The Fenomeno Roadster accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.4 seconds, reaches 200 km/h in 6.8 seconds and continues to a top speed of more than 340 km/h. For an open-top car, that is deeply unserious in the best possible way.

More than a Revuelto without a roof

It would be easy to see the Fenomeno Roadster as a more extreme, open-air interpretation of Lamborghini’s V12 hybrid era. But Lamborghini positions it differently.

This is a Few-Off model, which places it in the same emotional bloodline as cars like the Reventón Roadster, Veneno Roadster, Centenario Roadster and Sián Roadster. These cars are not just limited editions. They are rolling laboratories, design statements and collector objects that preview ideas Lamborghini may later translate into wider production. Lamborghini itself traces this open-top Few-Off tradition back to the Reventón Roadster in 2009.

The design is pure modern Lamborghini excess

The Fenomeno Roadster continues Lamborghini’s current design language, but pushes it further into concept-car territory.

The ultra-flat silhouette, sharp front end, wide intakes, sculpted flanks, speedster-style rear humps, active rear wing and high-mounted hexagonal exhaust all serve the same purpose: maximum visual violence with technical intent underneath.

The Blu Cepheus paintwork, combined with Rosso Mars accents, is also not a random choice. Lamborghini says the body colour references the 1968 Miura Roadster, while the red and blue combination pays tribute to the colours of Bologna. That is a nice detail, because it gives the car a historical link without making it feel retro.

Carbon everywhere, because of course

Under the skin, the Fenomeno Roadster uses Lamborghini’s carbon-intensive monofuselage structure, derived from the Revuelto architecture, with multi-technology carbon fibre and Forged Composite components.

That is important because open-top supercars always face a structural challenge. Remove the roof, and you need to recover rigidity somewhere else. Lamborghini claims the Roadster achieves a level of stiffness close to the Coupé, with only a few kilograms of additional weight.

The car also uses manually adjustable racing shock absorbers, CCM-R Plus carbon-ceramic brakes, a 6D sensor-based vehicle dynamics system and bespoke Bridgestone Potenza tyres developed specifically for the model.

AutoNext Take

A 1080 CV open-top V12 hybrid limited to 15 units is not a car the world needs. But it is a car the Lamborghini brand needs. It reminds people that Sant’Agata still understands drama. It proves that the V12 is not being quietly retired into history, but being transformed into something even more extreme.

And it gives collectors exactly what Few-Off Lamborghinis have always promised: a glimpse of the future, wrapped in complete madness. And unfortunately, the Fenomeno Roadster will probably spend most of its life in private collections.

Lamborghini turns 63 and that number has become part of the brand’s identity

Lamborghini is not just celebrating another birthday. On 7 May 2026, Automobili Lamborghini turns 63, marking more than six decades since Ferruccio Lamborghini founded the company in Sant’Agata Bolognese on 7 May 1963. But with Lamborghini, the number 63 is not simply a date in the archive. It has become part of the brand’s visual language, its collector culture and its way of connecting past, present and future.

Novitec Lamborghini Revuelto: when hybrid hypercars go even further

The Lamborghini Revuelto was never designed to be subtle. It already represents a radical shift for Lamborghini, blending a naturally aspirated V12 with electrification in a way that feels unapologetically emotional. But if there’s one company that believes “enough” is never quite enough, it’s Novitec.
