Founded specifically to be more aggressive than Ferrari. The Miura, Countach, Diablo, Murcielago, Aventador, and Revuelto carry the V12 lineage; the Huracan continues the V10.
ExoticLamborghini was founded by Ferruccio Lamborghini in 1963 specifically as a more aggressive Italian alternative to Ferrari. The origin story is famous: Lamborghini, a tractor magnate and Ferrari customer, complained to Enzo Ferrari about a clutch failure on his 250GT. Ferrari reportedly told him to mind his tractor business. Lamborghini decided to build his own supercars, and the result was the 350GT followed quickly by the 400GT and then the Miura. The Miura of 1966 invented the modern mid-engine supercar layout. Transverse mid-mounted V12, low slung body designed by Marcello Gandini at Bertone, and styling that has aged into one of the most beautiful cars ever made. The Countach replaced the Miura in 1974 with even more dramatic styling and longitudinal mid-engine layout. The Diablo (1990-2001), Murcielago (2001-2010), Aventador (2011-2022), and current Revuelto (2023-present) carry the V12 mid-engine lineage forward. The V10 lineage runs through the Gallardo (2003-2013) and Huracan (2014-2024 in current form, with successor coming). The Gallardo was Lamborghini first proper volume model: the firm produced more Gallardos in 10 years than total Lamborghinis made before 2003. The Huracan refined the formula. The Huracan Performante and Huracan STO are widely considered some of the great modern naturally aspirated supercars. The Urus SUV, launched in 2018, has reshaped Lamborghini commercially. The Urus accounts for over half of Lamborghini sales globally. The car shares its platform with the Audi Q7 and Bentley Bentayga but is tuned with Lamborghini character. The Urus Performante is the focused variant. On WhipJury, Lamborghini submissions are rare but always memorable. Huracans, Aventadors, Gallardos, and Uruses are the most common. Classic Countaches and the rare Miura appear occasionally in restored form.
Miura (1966-1973). The original. Transverse V12, Bertone design, around 800 cars built. Considered one of the most beautiful cars ever made. Variants include P400, S, and SV with progressively more power.
Countach (1974-1990). Replaced the Miura with longitudinal V12 mid-engine layout and Marcello Gandini wedge design. The 5000 QV and Anniversary Edition are the most desirable. The Countach defined supercar styling for an entire generation.
Diablo (1990-2001). First Lamborghini after Chrysler ownership. Refined the Countach formula. Variants include VT (all-wheel drive), SV, and the focused GT.
Murcielago (2001-2010). First Lamborghini after Audi acquisition. The Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce is the most respected variant.
Aventador (2011-2022). 6.5 liter naturally aspirated V12, single-clutch automated manual gearbox, all-wheel drive. The SVJ variant set Nürburgring records for production cars in 2018.
Revuelto (2023-present). First hybrid Lamborghini V12. Combined output around 1,000 horsepower. The lineup transition to hybrid begins here.
Huracan and Aventador submissions are the most common. Gallardo examples appear regularly. The Urus has a strong presence in voting because of the cultural status of the SUV. Classic Countaches and the rare Miura always do well, with the dramatic styling commanding attention.
