Celebrating its 60th anniversary, Lamborghini is ready to crown this landmark date with its first hybrid car.
The Lamborghini façade, which is preparing to launch its first electric car in 2028, is starting to lay its foundation in today’s dynamics, like all other giants in the industry. “March 7, 2023” will be recorded as a day for the Angry Bull, which delivered its last thoroughbred V12 engined vehicle to its owners via the Aventador Ultimae in 2022, which we left behind. Sharing the technical details of its first hybrid car with the special event held minutes ago, the Italian manufacturer is positioning the bar very high as always. The brand, which launched this car, which it will take to the streets, as “HPEV”, that is, a high-performance electric car, has now changed the name of the vehicle with the code LB744. to share preferred. Celebrating its 60th anniversary at the same time this year, Lambo will bring together two important celebrations in one party.

Key figures shared for “Lamborghini LB744”
Developed on a completely new infrastructure architecture, Lambo’s first hybrid car still wants to keep its place in the hearts of its mass by continuing with the V12 as the engine. One of the most striking points about the newly developed 6.5 V12 machine is the lightening works. With a total weight of 218 kilograms, the new block brings a remarkable improvement of 17 kilograms compared to the traditional V12 used in the Aventador. Three high-capacity electric motors will accompany the naturally aspirated engine, which has been declared uncompromising in performance despite this reduction. As the powertrain, a specially developed 8-speed dual-clutch gearbox will be used. With the combination of the V12 producing 813 horsepower and 725 Nm of torque and all other parts, an experience that Lambo’s first hybrid car will put at the disposal of 1,000 horsepower users awaits us. The fact that it will emit 30 percent less carbon compared to the engine in the Aventador Ultimae makes this combination more meaningful for the Brand with its performance values that will go down in history.

This car in a new era for Lamborghini will also bring a completely new approach on the engineering side. Lambo, which has been using the drivetrain at the center of the infrastructure since the Countach, now includes batteries, which are the basis of the hybrid system, in the tunnel that runs from the front to the back. According to the arrangement in the new infrastructure, two electric motors will be located in the front section, while the third engine will be located in the rear section integrated with the DCT transmission. One of the vital details in all this operation is undoubtedly the battery. The battery, which is located in the central tunnel and has a length of 1,550 millimeters, a height of 301 millimeters and a width of 240 millimeters, comes with a total capacity of 3.8 kWh. The unit, which can be charged with support up to 7 kW, can be fully charged in 30 minutes. Thanks to the compact structure, as we are used to in hybrid systems, the regeneration system will be able to fill this battery in 6 minutes while driving. In Lamborghini’s first hybrid model, which can also be used as pure electric, it is useful not to expect a range of more than 8-10 kilometers at this point.
