[Auto] Lamborghini Essenza SCV12: From the direct dealer to the circuit, or not?

[#Steeven.™]

For a firm like Lamborghini, brand image is vital. Thanks to this intangible, it can be located in one of the most minority and exclusive market segments: that of supercars. This situation, which would be disastrous for another manufacturer, is a gold mine that continues to explode. The last example is the birth of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12, a very sporty and radical model that we have been talking about for some time.

Its technical development has been carried out by the engineers who work in the Squadra Corse department. For its part, the design is the work of Lamborghini Centro Stile, giving it an imprint that is spectacular. The combination of both aspects has resulted in the model with the most powerful V12 block in the history of the Italian firm. If you like it, don't miss a detail, because you would like to have one in your garage.

The engine of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 delivers 830 hp

The aesthetics of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 has been devised with a basic premise: aerodynamics. That is why it has technical solutions that we can only see in competition models. The aerodynamic package that it assembles includes elements such as a front splitter, a double-profile rear spoiler or various air intakes that give it an aerodynamic load of more than 1,200 kilos at 250 kilometers per hour.

Nor can we ignore the decoration of your body. Here we find the Verde Silvans, Grigio Linx, Nero Aldebaran Gloss and Arancio California colors. To decorate them, they have placed the logos of, among other collaborators, Pertamina, Pirelli and Roger Dubuis. Behind the scenes, we have a minimalist interior inspired by competition. In it, the FIA carbon seats or the Formula 1-type sports steering wheel stand out.

On a technical level, the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 represents the maximum in the Italian house. Its chassis is made of carbon fiber helping to maintain the final weight at just over 1,300 kilos. All in all, the real secret to his rage lies under the hood, which we take for granted is the 6.5-liter V12 atmospheric aspirated block. Its power is 830 hp that reaches the ground directly through the rear axle.

For its management, the brand has relied on a sequential transmission of six relationships signed by X-trac. As a curiosity, the push-rod suspension is mounted on the gearbox, since it serves as a structural part of the chassis. Another of the goodies of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 is in the exhaust tails, which have been created by Carpisto to reduce the pressure of the exhaust gases and improve performance.

 

When will the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 hit the market?

The Essenza SCV12 arrives to replace the Diablo GTR or Miura Jota. Therefore, it is a machine designed to roll in a closed circuit, which is where its potential can best be squeezed. That being the case, it is not uncommon for him to mount 19-inch magnesium wheels front and 20-inch rear that open up a Brembo Motorsport brake kit. To dress them, they have relied on slick-type tires designed by Pirelli.

In short, only 40 units will be manufactured at a price to be determined. Customers who get a unit will be part of an exclusive club that will provide special activities from 2021. Therefore, if you want one, break the pig because it will surely not be cheap.
