An <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1120568_2023-lamborghini-aventador-successor-spy-shots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aventador successor<\/a> powered by a V-12 plug-in hybrid is coming next year, and has been spotted testing.<\/p>\n<p>Lamborghini put the rights to the final Aventador Ultimae coupe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1135511_last-v-12-lamborghini-coupe-sans-electrification-is-up-for-auction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">up for auction<\/a> last April, together with a non-fungible token called the Lamborghini Ultimate. The NFT provides its owner with various benefits like online access to reveals of future Lamborghini special editions, a private tour of Lamborghini&#8217;s museum, and contact with artists Steve Aoki and Krista Kim, who collaborated on the NFT and helped design the car. Aoki, a DJ, was tasked with creating an exclusive soundtrack for the NFT, while Kim, a digital artist, was tasked with creating visuals for it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XmRvxMrz5zU\" width=\"560\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The winning bid in the RM Sotheby&#8217;s auction was $1,603,125, and this week the winning bidder finally took delivery of the car. Kim, who in 2021 famously sold an NFT representing a digital house for $500,000 worth of Ethereum, was present for the delivery, while Aoki was there virtually.<\/p>\n<p>The car isn&#8217;t the final Aventador, though, and thus not the very last Lamborghini powered purely by a V-12. That honor goes to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1137269_lamborghini-ends-aventador-production-closes-chapter-on-pure-v-12-era\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae Roadster<\/a> that was completed in September and destined for a buyer in Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p>The Aventador Ultimae is powered by Lamborghini&#8217;s familiar 6.5-liter V-12, tuned in this application to deliver 769 hp and 531 lb-ft of torque via tweaks to the valve timing. The peak power is the highest of any Aventador road car and arrives at a screaming 8,500 rpm. Note, even though Lamborghini is moving to electrified powertrains, and eventually full-electric powertrains, the automaker hasn&#8217;t ruled out offering down the road some track-only cars powered solely by an internal-combustion engine. We&#8217;ve already seen this with stuff like 2020&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorauthority.com\/news\/1125716_lamborghini-motorsport-squad-reveals-830-horsepower-essenza-scv12\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Essenza SCV12<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s the end of an era at Lamborghini.
