Lamborghini has signed off its track development program for the SCV12 and revealed fresh details on the track-only hypercar ahead of its imminent launch.
Hailing from the firm’s Squadra Corse motorsport outfit and Centro Stile design gurus, the SCV12 takes the brand’s reputation to a new level by extracting more than 619kW (!) from what it says is the brand’s most powerful V12 to date. Remember, the ‘regular’ Aventador SVJ, which smashed the Nurburgring Nordschleife record lap time, only makes 552kW. And the video above proves it’ll make an almighty sound.

Keeping to its lightweight theme, Lambo’s ditched front drive shafts and put drive through rear 20-inch magnesium wheels fitted with slick tyres. The front wheels are made from the same material but sized 19-inches.

The aero’s so clever Lamborghini claims it’s partly why the car can produce so much power. It says the bonnet’s central rib guides air into its roof scoop, ramming air down into the V12’s throat to “increase static pressure in the engine’s intake manifold”.

Stay tuned for more news over the next couple months.
