Automobili Lamborghini on Tuesday unveiled the Fenomeno Roadster, its newest limited-run Few-Off model and the most powerful open-top car ever produced by the Italian supercar maker.

Only 15 units of the Fenomeno Roadster will be built globally. The two-seater comes with a V12 hybrid powertrain delivering 1,080 CV, and was unveiled during the second edition of the Lamborghini Arena.

“Fenomeno Roadster represents the purest expression of our brand values: visionary design, uncompromising performance, and absolute exclusivity,” said Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A.

The Fenomeno Roadster is an evolution of the Fenomeno Coupé introduced in 2025 and continues Lamborghini’s Few-Off open-top legacy that began with the Reventón Roadster in 2009.

Powered by a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 paired with three electric motors, the hybrid system enables the roadster to accelerate from 0–100 km/h in 2.4 seconds, 0–200 km/h in 6.8 seconds, and reach a top speed exceeding 340 km/h. The powertrain includes a 7 kWh lithium-ion battery, allowing fully electric driving capability.

Lamborghini said the Fenomeno Roadster is its first open-top V12 hybrid High Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV). The combustion engine alone produces 835 CV at 9,250 rpm and 725 Nm of torque at 6,750 rpm, making it the most powerful V12 developed by the company to date.

On the design and aerodynamics front, Lamborghini has introduced a new aerodynamic package to maintain downforce and stability without a roof. The car features a redesigned upper structure, an additional windshield-mounted spoiler for airflow management, and integrated carbon rollover protection bars aimed at reducing turbulence.

“With the Fenomeno Roadster, we are continuing the dream of many Lamborghini enthusiasts,” said Mitja Borkert, Design Director of Automobili Lamborghini.

Key features

The model carries Lamborghini’s signature hexagonal design language across exterior and interior elements. It also features a transparent engine cover with hexagonal air intakes and a distinctive rear design inspired by motorsport prototypes.

The roadster uses a multi-technology carbon fibre chassis, combining a carbon monofuselage structure with Forged Composite components. Lamborghini said the Roadster achieves rigidity levels similar to the Coupé with only a marginal weight increase.

Braking is handled by the CCM-R Plus carbon-ceramic braking system, derived from motorsport technology, while the suspension features manually adjustable racing shock absorbers for road and track setup.

Lamborghini’s tyre partner Bridgestone has developed bespoke Potenza Sport tyres for the Fenomeno Roadster, mounted on 21-inch front and 22-inch rear wheels, with an additional semi-slick track-focused option also planned.

The Fenomeno Roadster is offered in Blu Cepheus paintwork, with contrasting Rosso Mars accents, inspired by the colours of Bologna and Lamborghini’s first roadster, the 1968 Miura Roadster.
