Production of the coupe-only Countach LPI 800-4 is limited to 112 units.<\/p>\n<p>Unveiled earlier this year, the Ultimae is powered by the same 6.5-liter V-12 used in all other versions of the Aventador. However, it&#8217;s tuned 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 it arrives at a screaming 8,500 rpm.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image_wrapper first_wrapper\" readability=\"7\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" name=\"tccimg_100802459_m\" title=\"Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD\/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=\" alt=\"Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"first_image lazy\" data-width=\"1024\" data-height=\"576\" data-url=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/lrg\/lamborghini-countach-lpi-800-4_100802459_l.jpg\" data-src-h=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/hug\/lamborghini-countach-lpi-800-4_100802459_h.jpg\" data-src=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/lrg\/lamborghini-countach-lpi-800-4_100802459_l.jpg\" data-src-l=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/lrg\/lamborghini-countach-lpi-800-4_100802459_l.jpg\" data-src-m=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/med\/lamborghini-countach-lpi-800-4_100802459_m.jpg\" data-src-s=\"https:\/\/images.hgmsites.net\/sml\/lamborghini-countach-lpi-800-4_100802459_s.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Power is routed to all four wheels through a 7-speed independent shifting rod transmission.
