Lamborghini Veneno


                                     

 What do you do if you are Fellipo Perini, the director at Lamborghini, and McLaren, Porsche and, most importantly, Ferrari are about to launch their screaming hypercars that are bound to steal the show at Geneva? Well, you order your design board to design and build 3, just 3, totally mental cars based on the already stupendous Aventador. And then name it the Veneno, after the bull of the same name who holds the rare distinction of having killed the torero who challenged it. Also, Veneno means 'venom' in Spanish and Portuguese. The tuned Aventador engine produces 750 PS of power.Oh, and you also price it at 3.12 million euros. 

will be more than thrice of those from the stables of other manufacturers, it will still be compared with the La
Though only three specimens will be made and its cost Ferrari, the Porsche 918 and the McLaren P1.

The Lamborghini Veneno is a limited production sports car, first exhibited during the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. It is a show piece based on the Lamborghini Aventador and was built to celebrate Lamborghini’s 50th anniversary. The prototype, Car Zero, is finished in grey and includes an Italian flag vinyl on both sides of the car. The engine is a development of the Aventador's 6.5 L V12 and produces 750 PS (550 kW; 740 bhp).


Only three production cars will be produced. There will be a green, white, and red one, each representing a colour of the Italian flag. Car Zero, which was the vehicle on display, will be retained by the factory for the museum. The three production cars will cost €3.12 million each, and all three have been sold. Two are destined for the USA.
