From ultra-exclusive world premieres to high-end auctions, the Annual Monterey Car Week transforms into an adrenaline-soaked paradise for everyone from ultra-wealthy collectors to enthusiasts alike. While we can expect more of the same in August this year, all eyes will once again be on Lamborghini. Monterey, of course, has been the stage for showcasing several Lamborghini production and concept cars, including the likes of the original URUS concept, the modern-day Countach LPI 800-4, the 2+2 all-electric GT Lanzador, and more recently restomods like the Diablo-based Eccentrica.
Now, according to the TheSupercarBlog, the Italian automaker is reportedly preparing to unveil its most powerful car to date at Pebble Beach. Based on a trademark filed with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) back in April this year, this limited-edition model is rumored to be named ‘Fenomeno,’ which translates to Phenomenon and occurs in both Spanish and Italian. It perfectly aligns with Lamborghini’s long-standing tradition of using native languages to come up with evocative and exotic-sounding names.
Expected to build upon Lamborghini’s already potent current flagship, the 1,001 horsepower 6.5-liter V12 plug-in hybrid, Revuelto, this upcoming model could push even higher figures, potentially topping every Lambo that came before it. A private preview of the Fenomeno has already happened, and the latest rumors suggest, only 29 examples of the seven-figure supercar will be built, making it rarer than the likes of the Centanario (40 units) and the Sian FKP 37 (82 units).
Besides Fenomeno, Lamborghini also filed another trademark for the word ‘Armero.’ While the name doesn’t come from the world of Spanish bulls, it relates to the word armor in Spanish. Could this relate to a more off-road-ready Urus variant? Perhaps. While it may be highly unlikely for a modern-day Lamborghini SUV to feature a V12, like the LM002 originally developed for military use back in the 80s, we can’t rule out the possibility of a more rugged variant with beefy tires and more purpose-built hardware to take on the elements. It is highly unlikely to be an all-electric model though, as Lamborghini has pushed back on its EV plans, citing slow demand by CEO Stephan Winklemann.
Regardless of what’s coming this August, it appears that there’s plenty to look forward to from the Sant’Agata Bolognese-based brand, and if you’re attending Car Week this year, stay tuned for some truly spectacular reveals.
