ASTERION

The Sián FKP 37 is the first production Lamborghini powered by a V12 with super capacitor-based hybrid technology, and as we already know, is the fastest Lamborghini ever. But many will remember that there was a concept car with very different technology which was the first to pit Lamborghini’s engineers against the challenge of electrification. Its name is the Lamborghini Asterion. The Asterion debuted at the Paris Motor Show in 2014, and its silent entrance immediately drew attention.

Its name is the Lamborghini Asterion. The Asterion debuted at the Paris Motor Show in 2014, and its silent entrance immediately drew attention.

The vehicle has four different motors: the longitudinal 5.2 liters 610 CV V10 engine of the Huracán, alongside three electric motors powered by lithium-ion batteries. The two motors installed at the front provide 300 CV directly to the front wheels, while the third acts as a generator and is installed on the dual-clutch gearbox

The combination of the two systems translates into incredible performance: the Asterion can hit 100 km/h (62 mph) from a standing start in three seconds flat, with a top speed of 320 km/h (200 mph). In full-electric mode, it can travel 50 km (31 miles) at a maximum speed of 125 km/h (78 mph) powered solely by electric motors.

The Asterion was defined as a hyper-cruiser, in other words, a super sports car that also boasts comfort and luxury amongst its strengths. The design is unequivocally that of a Lamborghini finely curated interior is a combination of Bianco Celaeno (ivory) and Marrone Attis (brown) leather, putting luxury and elegance at the heart of the driving experience.

Keeping with Lamborghini tradition, the name of the vehicle is taken from that of a bull: Asterion is the true name of the Minotaur, the mythological half man half bull which symbolically represents the perfect fusion between intellect and instinct. A being with hybrid DNA, like the first Lamborghini, to combine the rational power of the electric motor with the untamable thrust from the V10.
