The Story Behind the Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4

The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 is an iconic ride that was unveiled in 2021 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the original Countach. This model pays tribute to the legendary first-generation Countach, which was produced from 1974 to 1990. This modern version was created as a limited edition, blending the classic design of the original with the latest tech. The designer behind the new look was Mitja Borkert, while engineer Maurizio Reggiani worked on the technical aspects. It features a 6.5-liter (0.17-gallon) V12 engine paired with a 48-volt electric motor, giving it a combined power of 814 horsepower. The predecessor, the original Countach, revolutionized the automotive world with its radical design back in the day.
