It is a unique interpretation of driving emotion, created for a select group of customers who seek something truly beyond convention. Each example is conceived as a collectible masterpiece, where engineering excellence meets true bespoke craftsmanship,” says Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. The Fenomeno name follows Lamborghini’s tradition of drawing inspiration from legendary, courageous bulls. In both Italian and Spanish, Fenomeno means “phenomenal”, a name that perfectly embodies the power and exclusivity of this extraordinary model. This is Lamborghini’s first V12 hybrid High Performance Electrified Vehicle, which delivers a combined system output of 1080 CV from a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 that is linked to three electric motors. Capable of accelerating from 0–100 km/h in 2.4 seconds, from 0–200 km/h in 6.8 seconds and reaching speeds of over 340 km/h, it combines extreme performance with cutting-edge hybrid capability. Its aerospace-inspired chassis structure ensures an optimal power-to-weight ratio and high rigidity. The Fenomeno Roadster features manually adjustable racing shock absorbers that allow for a lower ride-height, precise setup and tuning for road or track driving. Braking performance is ensured by the CCM-R Plus carbon-ceramic system, developed from motorsport-derived technologies, guaranteeing consistent deceleration and maximum stability even at high speeds. Bridgestone, Lamborghini’s Technical Partner, has developed bespoke Potenza tires for the Fenomeno Roadster, fitted on 21- and 22-inch wheels to maximize performance and driving precision. The Fenomeno Roadster features a completely new aerodynamic package compared to the Coupé, designed to ensure maximum performance even without the roof. Lamborghini has redesigned several of the car’s upper functional surfaces and, thanks to new aerodynamic elements, the Fenomeno Roadster achieves the same levels of downforce, stability and balance as the Coupé, while also ensuring optimal cooling of the engine and brakes. An additional spoiler mounted on the windshield directs airflow over the cockpit and channels it into the new engine bay. In this way, the V12 receives cooling air efficiently in all driving conditions, even without the air scoop featured on the Fenomeno Coupé, minimizing turbulence and vibrations. A particular challenge lies in the development of the rollover protection bars. While their primary use is to ensure passenger safety, they must also be aerodynamically efficient in order to minimize wind noise and turbulence, even at top speed. Lamborghini has integrated the carbon rollover protection structures as flat and elegantly as possible behind the sports seats, integrated into the car’s sculptural design language and flowing smoothly into the Speedster humps. The Fenomeno Roadster is already considered a design inspiration for open-top super sports cars. The design team has created a model that reflects the rich historical DNA of the company while also looking to the future. “With the Fenomeno Roadster, we are continuing the dream of many Lamborghini enthusiasts. It’s an exclusive and precious looking design; the Fenomeno Roadster represents the ‘feel like a pilot’ philosophy. At the same time, we are showcasing the relentless creativity of our Centro Stile, which has been actively creating Lamborghini designs for more than 20 years,” says Mitja Borkert, Design Director of Automobili Lamborghini. Even at first glance, the sculpted, aerodynamically optimized front end catches the eye, with sharp lines, wide air intakes, and the striking hexagonal look that all blend seamlessly. The side view follows the same philosophy: sharply defined flanks, wide sills and air intakes behind the doors ensure optimal cooling of the engine, while the wide and deep rear diffuser, together with the optimized underbody and the active rear wing system, maximize downforce and handling, ensuring stability at the highest speeds. Particularly striking is the ultra-flat silhouette, which emphasizes a clear center line, and the distinctive cabin architecture with sloping side windows. The design team has conceived a new flat windshield with an elegant additional wing. This ultra-light carbon spoiler is embossed with the Fenomeno Roadster logo. The car’s silhouette is visually elongated by a rear design inspired by the Essenza SCV12 and 1970s racing prototypes, while also recalling the athletic style of the Lamborghini Manifesto, the design concept created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Centro Stile. From the rear, the Fenomeno looks futuristic and purposeful, with the high-mounted hexagonal exhaust underlining the uncompromising dynamics and technical precision of the vehicle. “The challenge is always to create a unique character; unexpected and with a personal identity as a design idea for the new Lamborghini. For the Fenomeno Roadster, we worked intensively on the creative inclusion of the engine area, which has the visual illusion for the driver that it is floating. That illusion helps to integrate and celebrate the driver as much as possible. Once again, we have placed the powertrain as the center of attention. Our unique V12 hybrid powertrain must always be the main proportional aspect of visualization.” explains Mitja Borkert. The engine, designed by Lamborghini, is one of the central elements of the Fenomeno Roadster’s design, and is celebrated with a clear new engine cover that features hexagonal intakes that elegantly pick up on the Y theme while directing cooling air to the engine. Even the engine is framed by a hexagonal element. The hexagon signature runs through details such as the side skirts, wheel arches, air intakes, and the shape of the LED lights, a recurring design element that makes the Fenomeno Roadster instantly recognizable as a Lamborghini. The hexagonal shape also appears in the interior, including the air vents and instrument display. The Fenomeno Roadster’s cockpit features a high-tech aesthetic and embodies the Lamborghini “Feel Like a Pilot” philosophy: carbon fiber, Corsatex by Dinamica, and the patented Carbon Skin material characterize the cockpit, dashboard, and seats. The contoured seats, with contrasting red stitching, support the human body even during the forces of extreme cornering, while the digital displays present the most important driving data clearly. The “Pilot Interaction” operating concept combines three digital displays with hexagonal graphics, haptic buttons, and aviation-inspired switches. This allows the driver to remain fully concentrated on the road or racetrack – just like in a real race car. With its Blu Cepheus paintwork, the Fenomeno Roadster is one of the most colorful limited-edition models Lamborghini has ever built. While the main color dominates the upper section, the lower section contrasts with Rosso Mars as an accent color that highlights key areas. This combination underscores the sporting nature of this limited-edition series. The body color is reminiscent of the first Lamborghini roadster, the 1968 Miura Roadster, while the color combination has been conceived as a tribute to the colors of the city of Bologna: red and blue.
