Saar: The maddest, barely road-legal rampaging bull from Sant’Agata Bolognese takes inspiration from Huracán racers and reminds us of the stunning Sesto Elemento.

What happens when a super-rich madman meets the maddest carmaker in the world? Something completely insane! Just like the Lamborghini SC18. Conceived by joined efforts of the customer and the Centro Stile – Lamborghini’s design studio, it is the first one-off product that proudly flaunts the rampaging bull logo. The know-how from Squadra Corse, Lamborghini’s motorsport division, was brought into the mix to create the barely road-legal SC18.

The model, primarily designed for racetrack use, opens endless opportunities for customers to head over to Lamborghini and ask for a motorsport-inspired iteration of a road-legal model. The racing elements in the Lamborghini SC18 are inspired from the motorsport derivatives of the Huracán. For instance, the front hood, with air intakes look similar to the ones on the Huracán GT3 EVO. Similarly, the sides, rear fenders, fins and air scoops are inspired by the Huracán Super Trofeo EVO.

The twelve air intakes on the rear hood, which improve cooling, and the red-and-black colour combination reminds us of the stunning Sesto Elemento. The latter had ten such air intakes because it had a 10-cylinder engine. Anyway, Lambo says the massive rear, carbon fibre wing has three mechanical adjustments and has the ability to deliver optimal downforce on any circuit. Bold claims there!

Behind the scenes is the naturally-aspirated 6.5-litre V12 engine which produces 770PS/720Nm. It is the most powerful derivative of the iconic power-plant. Lambo fans will immediately tell you that the oomph available in the SC18 is exactly the same as it was in Centenario, a model which broke cover during the 2016 Geneva Motor Show and the product of which was limited to just 20 coupés and 20 roadsters. In the SC18, however, the engine comes coupled to an ISR (Independent Shifting Rod) optimised 7-speed transmission. Lamborghini is yet to release any performance figures but it did confirm that the ground clearance is just 109mm.

The new carbon fibre body is finished in Grigio Daytona (Grey) with red accents. The interiors, on the other hand, have been finished in Nero Ade (black) Alcantara with cross-stitching in Rosso Alala (red) and feature carbon fibre bucket seats. The single nut wheels, which are 20 inchers in the front and 21 at the rear, are wrapped around with specially developed Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres. There’s also a telemetry system to measure performance-related aspects of the car on a race track.
