Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910
The brand new Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910 hypercar concept has a traditional combustion engine—the iconic 5.2-litre V10 lifted from the Huracan—combined with three electric motors producing a total of 300PS, which takes total output to 910PS. Although Lamborghini is mum, we understand that it is an all-wheel drive set up with the front wheels being powered by the electric motors. For a car with over 900PS, Lamborghini is being quite conservative with their claimed 0-100 kmph time of 3 seconds and top speed of 320 kmph. But, what’s truly remarkable though is the claimed maximum possible fuel efficiency of 24.4 kmpl. Even CO2 emissions fall below the magic 100g/km mark.
