The image that you see here in this blog is that of the 4000th Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-3 SuperVeloce rolling out of the Automobili Lamborghini’s Sant’Agata production lines. That clearly means 3999 Lamborghini Murcielago has already rolled out of this plant in Italy. And the guys at Lamborghini call it as Low-Volume Super cars. That’s the irony of it.

Only around 2,900 of the previous V12 model, the Lamborghini Diablo, were built over eleven years of production – the Murcielago has been in production since 2001.

The car, a Murcielago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce, built at Lamborghini’s factory in Sant’Agata, in Italy, is destined for a buyer in Hangzhou, in China. There are no less than seven Lamborghini dealers in China, which has of late become an important market for supercar and luxury car manufacturers. The LP 670-4 SuperVeloce is fitted with a 6.5-litre V12 engine that produces 670 horsepower. The car accelerates from zero to 100km/h in 3.2 seconds and hits a top speed of 342km/h.

Only 350 SuperVeloce special series models will be produced, with each one’s soft contours and razor-sharp edges showing the features of an extreme driving machine.

Murcielago series number 4,000 shows off its carbon fibre body painted in orange Arancione Atlas, a luxurious cockpit in Alcantara and carbon fibre inserts, black sports bucket seats with orange contrasting trim and an imposing rear spoiler which improves vehicle stability at high speeds.

‘The enthusiasm our products incite makes us proud and confirms that the company’s product strategy and model range are a winning combination, producing exceptionally desirable super sports cars,’ said Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. President and CEO, Stephan Winkelmann.
