Lamborghini has taken the roof off its latest limited-run V12 hybrid, and the result is the Fenomeno Roadster.
Limited to just 15 examples and expected to sit well beyond €3 million, the Fenomeno Roadster becomes the most powerful open Lamborghini yet, pairing a naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 with three electric motors for a combined 1,080 PS.
A Few-Off Lamborghini with Revuelto firepower
The Fenomeno Roadster follows the Fenomeno Coupé shown at Monterey Car Week and joins Lamborghini’s Few-Off bloodline, the ultra-exclusive series that began with the Reventón in 2009.
Underneath the wilder bodywork sits the technical architecture of the Revuelto, which means a carbon-fibre monocoque, all-wheel drive, an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and a hybrid system built around Sant’Agata’s naturally aspirated V12.
The combustion engine delivers 835 PS on its own, while two electric motors drive the front axle and a third is integrated into the gearbox.
Total output stands at 1,080 PS and 725 Nm of torque, numbers that put this Roadster in rare territory even by modern hypercar standards.
Open-air speed with 1,080 PS
Lamborghini claims 0 to 100 km/h in 2.4 seconds and 0 to 200 km/h in 6.8 seconds, with the car continuing beyond 340 km/h.
Those figures are especially striking because removing a roof usually brings extra aerodynamic and structural challenges, but the Fenomeno Roadster has been engineered to keep the drama without dulling the pace.
A 7 kWh lithium-ion battery allows short electric driving when the mood calls for quiet movement, though this is clearly not a car designed around restraint.
More unusually, the Roadster gives owners manual damper adjustment, allowing a more personal setup for road use or circuit driving rather than leaving everything to preset software alone.
Aero shaped around the missing roof
The most important engineering work is above and behind the cockpit, where the absence of a fixed roof demanded more than a simple styling exercise.
A new spoiler above the windscreen guides air over the open cabin and into the engine bay, helping feed and cool the V12 while reducing turbulence around the occupants.
The rollover structure has also been carefully integrated to preserve stability at high speed, avoiding the heavy-handed look that can sometimes affect open-top hypercars.
The engine itself remains a central part of the design, appearing almost suspended within the rear bodywork rather than hidden beneath it.
A collector car that doesn’t pretend to be sensible
The Fenomeno Roadster is not chasing subtlety, practicality or broad appeal.
It exists for the Lamborghini client who wants the full V12 experience with no roof overhead, an impossibly small production number and enough hybrid assistance to make the performance feel ferocious in any gear.
Carbon ceramic brakes handle stopping duties, while the composite structure keeps the whole package anchored in Lamborghini’s current top-tier engineering playbook.
What makes it interesting is the tension at its core, because it combines an old-school naturally aspirated soundtrack with a modern electrified drivetrain and the kind of coachbuilt scarcity that turns delivery day into an event.
For most people, the Fenomeno Roadster will remain a poster car rather than a purchase decision.
For 15 buyers, it will be one of the most extreme open Lamborghinis ever made, and probably one of the last to celebrate the V12 with this much volume, theatre and excess.
