Lamborghini Asterion – the first hybrid model in the history of the Italian auto manufacturer!
by AllAutoExperts | 9 October, 2015
The Lamborghini Asterion Concept is the first hybrid model in the history of the Italian manufacturer and is, at the same time, the most powerful Lambo ever created.
Three electrical engines and a V10 of 5.2 liters which reach the maximum power at 910 pHs. In other words, an unbeatable competitor of McLaren P1, Porshe 918 Spyder, and LaFerrari, with the exception that the Lamborghini model is still a prototype.
But, as you can see in the pictures and video, it is a very well behaved prototype, considering Lamborghini's reputation, maybe too well behaved for its own good. It is still very far away from the SF shapes of the Veneno, exterior, and interior. I could actually say that it has even better behaved than the series models Huracan and Aventador, which were standing right next to it in the Parisian auto showroom.
The cabin is very simple (compared to other ideas of the Italians from the past) and, although it has a tab on the central panel and a screen as board dials, it still doesn't really manage to stand out.
There is no doubt, of course, that the Italians from Lamborghini (with some help from the Germans from Audi) managed to do an exceptional job at the technical part and, who knows, maybe we will see this Asterion as a series model soon.
