Lamborghini has unveiled the Sián Roadster, the company’s most powerful open-top vehicle ever produced, and currently the most powerful open-top in the world as well.
The Sián Roadster is a futuristic yet production-ready, equipped to hit the roads very soon. The open-top hybrid hypercar comes packed to the teeth.
Similar to the earlier coupe version of the Sián, the hybrid roadster is fitted with a behemoth 6.5-litre V12 from the Aventador SVJ paired with a 48V electric motor incorporated into the gearbox which allows it to be directly connected to the wheels. The roadster gets a majority of its power — around 785 hp — from the V12 and gets the other 35 hp from the electric motor. According to Lamborghini, the Sián Roadster sprints from 0 to 100 kmph timing in just 2.9s, which is 0.1s more than the coupe, with reaching a top speed of 350 kmph.
In case you were getting ready to head into your Richie Rich vault to fill bags of money to buy the Roadtser, there is no use. Only 19 examples were set to be built of the Sián Roadster and all of them have been sold.
“The Sián Roadster encapsulates the spirit of Lamborghini,” says Stefano Domenicali, Automobili Lamborghini Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “It is the expression of breathtaking design and extraordinary performance, but most importantly embodies important future technologies. The Sián’s innovative hybrid powertrain heralds the direction for Lamborghini super sports cars, and the open-top Sián Roadster affirms a desire for the ultimate lifestyle Lamborghini as we move towards a tomorrow demanding new solutions.”
The Sián Roadster makes its debut in Blu Uranus, especially selected by Lamborghini’s Centro Stile, which together with the Ad Personam department works with every Sián client to entirely personalize the color and finish of their Roadster. Encapsulating the blue of the sky and the green of the fields, evoking the freedom and driving elation delivered by the open top Sián Roadster’s performance, the car is finished with Oro Electrum wheels: the color chosen by Lamborghini to signify electrification. The complementary interior is an elegant combination of white with Blu Glauco detailing and aluminum elements in Oro Electrum: new-design air vents produced via 3D printing allows customization with a client’s initials.
