    The Lamborghini SC20 has been revealed and it is a one-off, track-focused roadster that can also be driven legally on the road.

    • It uses a 770hp, 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 engine
    • It takes design inspiration from the Aventador J and Veneno Roadster
    • It is the second one-off Squadra Corsa project built for a customer

    Lamborghini SC20 design

    The second of two one-off projects engineered by Lamborghini’s Squadra Corse racing arm, the SC20 combines styling cues from the Diablo VT Roadster, Aventador J, Veneno Roadster and Concept S, according to Lamborghini.

    Other chief influences on the car include the Huracán GT3 Evo racer, which was the inspiration for the SC20’s pronounced front hood air intakes, and the track-only Essenza SCV12 (also designed by Squadra Corse), which has influenced the SC20’s sides.

    The body is painted white, as specified by the buyer, with prominent blue accents inside and out. The inside is themed blue, white and black, while carbon fibre appears on the dashboard cover, firewall, door panels, centre console and steering wheel detailing.

    Lamborghini SC20 engine

    The SC20 is powered by Lamborghini’s venerable 6.5-litre, naturally aspirated V12 engine generating 770hp and 720Nm. It's delivered to all four wheels through a 7-speed automatic gearbox and a central electronic differential. The car rides on Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres mounted on aluminum wheels with a staggered layout - 20-inch in diameter at the front and 21-inch at the rear.

    The new track car, which was designed by Lamborghini’s Centro Stile design centre, is based around a carbon fibre body with a large adjustable carbon fibre rear wing able to be set in three positions: low, medium and ‘high load’.

    Lamborghini Squadra Corsa

    The SC20 is the second one-off Squadra Corsa project built for a customer, following the SC18 in 2018. That car was based on the Aventador, also drawing on the same 770hp V12 powertrain used by the Aventador SVJ.

    In our market, Lamborghini offers the Urus SUV as well as the Huracan and Aventador supercars. The most recent addition to the Italian supercar maker’s line-up in India is the Lamborghini Huracan Evo RWD (rear-wheel drive), which was launched earlier this year at a price of Rs 3.22 crore (ex-showroom, India).
