The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 was unveiled on 14th of August 2021. This new Lambo is named after the iconic supercar that was launched almost 50 years ago.

“The Countach LPI 800-4 2022 is a homage to the original car that was introduced in 1974.”

This particular Lamborghini is equipped with the company’s newly developed technology. Lamborghini states that the Countach LPI 800-4 promises the world the new vision of the brand, while continuing to deliver raw power and excitement.

Perhaps, if you are looking to rent a Lamborghini Countach 800 in Dubai, you must know that the car is limited in number. Therefore, you can still try your hands on other Lambo models to experience the performance capabilities that these cars have.

Overview of the Countach LPI 800-4

The latest Lamborghini Countach showcases a new take on performance cars and their technology. A pure racing brand, Lamborghini has been applauded for its naturally aspirated engines and handling capabilities.

Having said that, the 2022 Countach takes a different approach. Find out below, the aspects that make this Lamborghini the beginning of a new era of Lambo cars.

Engine highlights of the Lamborghini Countach 2022

This particular Lamborghini features a unique engine configuration. Supporting its combustion engine are electric motors that assist with the power output. The Countach LPI 800-4 has a 6.5 Liter V12 engine (MHEV 4WD ISR). It produces a total of 804 horsepower combined with the electric motors.

A hybrid engine configuration is a first for Lamborghini. What was once a vision with changing environmental norms has now become a reality. Lamborghini is among those Italian race car brands that have always upheld their true performance identity by producing massively powerful V12s.

Perhaps, overtime the consequences with nature and environmental concerns have forced automobile companies to innovate their products to emit less toxic into the air.

This is why Lamborghini decided to develop an engine technology that is still capable of performing incredibly while also ensuring eco-friendly levels of emission. It complies with Euro 6 – Level 3 emission standards.

Performance numbers of the new Lambo Countach

Combine electric and combustion engines, and that’s the sound of a fast car. The Lamborghini Countach 2022 can accelerate to a maximum speed of 221 mph (355 km/h). Using its re-programed launch control system, the supercar can sprint from 0 to 62 mph 2.8 seconds, which is mind-bogglingly fast.

Transmission and modern powertrain of the LPI 800-4

The Lamborghini Countach features a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. This unit has been re-developed to deliver seamless and quick shifts which makes driving more enjoyable.

It features a four-wheel drive powertrain. The combustion engine and electric motor permanently delivers power to all four wheels. The power vectoring can be configured through the different driving mode options available.

Suspension and assisting systems on the Lamborghini Countach

Double wishbone, that’s suspension setup you will find on the Lamborghini LPI 800-4. This suspension unit has proven successful in the previous iteration of Lambo cars and has been slightly modified for better handling.

When it comes to braking, Lamborghini cars have always featured massive brake calipers. The Countach 2022 has an Anti-Locking braking system that helps the car achieve a braking distance from 80 mph to 0 of 226 feet.

Another assistance system that has been featured on most recent Lamborghini’s is the four-wheel steering system. The Countach is integrated with the same unit, which makes cornering more accurate.

Exterior design of the Countach 2022

It was that movement when the design of this modern Lamborghini was unveiled from under the wraps, that the automotive industry skipped a beat. That’s right, the new Lamborghini Countach carries the same silhouette as the original Countach but with a few modern upgrades.

If you notice the front end of the car, the bonnet scopes downwards, providing a sharper front look. This enables a better aerodynamic flow of air through the car. The headlights on the car resemble that of the older model with the rectangular shape of it.

“Lamborghini Countach LPI 800 is the definition of transforming vintage design into modern aesthetics.”

Coming to the side profile of the Countach, the older model had smaller side scopes. However, the latest Countach features a more elaborate and wider side scope that lets better airflow through the engine bay for improved cooling.

On the rear-end of the car, you will notice that hard lines on the older version of the Countach have been smoothed out with sleek lines. Overall, the exterior of the 2022 Lamborghini Countach carries forward the legendary design que of the original but with upgrades that make it more modern and reliable.

Interior of Lambo’s most iconic successor

The Lamborghini Countach 2022 takes a slightly different approach with its interior when compared to recent models. Unlike the Lamborghini Aventador or the Huracan STO, the Countach LPI 800 has a minimalistic interior design.

It features bucket seats, stitched in a pattern replicating that of the original interior. A fully digital gauge cluster and a center console infotainment display. The driving mode buttons are also placed on the center unit, with other car controls like power windows and lift system.

You will find an extensive use of fine leather and carbon fiber all over the interior, with the dashboard covered in alcantara.
