Lamborghini confirms limited production run of light-weight Sesto Elemento

Lamborghini’s CEO Stephan Winkelmann confirmed this evening they will build just 20 units of the Sesto Elemento, the carbon-based super sports car that first appeared at the Paris Motor Show last year.

Speaking at the Volkswagen Group pre-event gathering, Winkelmann confirmed the 995 kg model will use the same 562 bhp engine as the LP570-4, resulting in a 0-62 mph time of around 2.5 seconds.

There is no word on pricing yet, but expect it to match the Sesto Elemento’s gargantuan performance and echo the $1.5 million previously asked for the Reventon.
