Lamborghini Centenario: 770 AG V12, coupé and Roadster
The Lamborghini Centenario is a limited-edition supercar introduced in 2016 to celebrate Ferruccio Lamborghini's centenary. Only 40 units were produced: 20 coupés and 20 Roadsters. We look at the versions, the V12 engine, and what you need to know about this collectible car.
Centenario in brief
The Centenario was unveiled in 2016 at the Geneva Motor Show. The name means 'centenary' — the model is dedicated to Ferruccio Lamborghini's 100th birthday (born 1916). The car is built on Aventador SV technology.
Only 40 units were made — 20 coupés and 20 Roadsters. As a result, the Centenario is a very rare collectible car that you'll hardly ever see in Lithuania, with sales mostly happening through private channels or auctions.
Versions and differences
Two body styles are offered — the closed coupé and the open Roadster. The technology and engine are identical, with only the roof and related body elements differing.
The design is extremely aggressive, with large aerodynamic details and a carbon fibre body. Each car is largely customised according to the buyer's preferences, so there are many individual variants.
Engine and transmission
The Centenario has a 6.5-litre V12 petrol engine with around 770 AG of power. The car has all-wheel drive and rear-wheel steering.
The transmission is a 7-speed robotised (ISR) unit. There was no manual option. The body and monocoque are made of carbon fibre, making the car quite light.
What to check when buying a Centenario
When assessing this car, the most important factors are the documentation: origin, serial number, ownership history, and service records from an official Lamborghini dealer. Due to its limited production, value heavily depends on originality and history.
Check the carbon fibre components, brakes, and electronics. Before buying, consult with an official Lamborghini specialist, as repairs for such a car can be extremely expensive.
