Lamborghini Essenza SCV12

Lamborghini stated that at high speed the Essenza SCV12 produces more downforce than a contemporary GT3 racing car.

Unlike many road-going Lamborghini V12 models, the Essenza SCV12 sends power only to the rear wheels.

The Essenza uses a six-speed X-trac sequential gearbox that also serves as a structural element of the rear powertrain assembly.

The intake exploits rising air pressure at high speed, an effect Lamborghini describes as dynamic supercharging of the engine.

The Essenza SCV12’s naturally aspirated V12 produces more than 830 CV.

The Essenza SCV12 was limited to 40 examples and designed exclusively for circuit use.

The Essenza’s compact steering wheel integrates the display and primary controls in a layout inspired by Formula One cars.

The body styling and aerodynamics were created by Lamborghini Centro Stile working with the racing engineers.

The Essenza SCV12’s technical development was handled by Lamborghini’s Squadra Corse racing department.

Essenza owners received access to a dedicated programme of track events and technical support from Squadra Corse.
