2014 Lamborghini Veneno Roadster

To celebrate its 50th anniversary year in 2013, Automobili Lamborghini presented the Lamborghini Veneno Coupé and Roadster. The Roadster is an open racing prototype with an extreme design and breathtaking performance.

The Veneno Roadster is extreme and guarantees an intense driving experience. There is no roof, just a strong rollover bar for optimum safety. The design is focused on optimum aerodynamics and stability through fast corners, with handling akin to that of a racing prototype. Yet it is fully road legal. Driven by a twelve-cylinder engine with a displacement of 6.5 L and is equipped with the extremely fast-shifting ISR transmission with five modes, permanent all-wheel drive and a racing chassis with pushrod suspension and horizontal spring/damper units. With a maximum output of 552 kW / 750 hp, the Veneno Roadster accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds and top speed stands at 355 km/h.

A monocoque made from carbon-fiber reinforced polymer forms the basis of the Roadster. All exterior parts are made from lightweight CFRP. The Veneno Roadster meets all safety and registration requirements worldwide.

Carbon fiber dominates also the interior of the Veneno Roadster. The carbon fiber monocoque is visible inside the car around the central tunnel and the sills. The two lightweight bucket seats are made from Lamborghini’s patented Forged Composite.

It is one of the world’s most exclusive automobiles --- not more than nine units will be built during the course of 2014 and sold at a price of 3.3 million Euros ($5,300,000.00) (excl. tax). (supercars.net)
