The Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae Coupe, armed with 769 horsepower, is one of the most powerful cars from Sant’Agata Bolognese. It is also the last naturally-aspirated V12 vehicle from the fabled carmaker. While the replacement will be a PHEV, the final Aventador Ultimae Coupe will be put up for auction by RM Southeby's on April 19. For Lamborghini fans that’s a piece of history right there.
Powered by the brand’s long-standing 6.5-litre engine that’s paired with a seven-speed transmission, the Ultimae Coupe develops a not insubstantial 720Nm of torque and hits the benchmark 0-100km/h sprint in a scant 2.8 seconds. However, it’s not the sheer performance and the exclusivity that makes this car special; it also comes with a one-of-one NFT (non-fungible token) created just for it. Furthermore, the winning bidder will have access to several exclusive services and will get digital previews of upcoming limited edition vehicles from Lamborghini.
“Lamborghini and the NFT community fit together very well, as we share many values. We are both young-spirited innovators, looking out for unexpected projects and technological solutions,” said Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman, and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. “This project is very special for us as it is a true first, a path nobody has ever taken; to collaborate with such outstanding creative minds makes it all the more special.”
Expectedly, Lamborghini's in-house Ad Personam team has helped design the exclusive model with contributions from artists Krista Kim and Steve Aoki, who are also teaming up to create the NFT for the last-ever Aventador.
“I’m honoured to be partnering with Lamborghini and Krista Kim on this historic project! The drop signifies the ultimate intersection—where the physical world, digital art and music come together as one. Every design element of this car is purposeful. It truly has its own story, and therefore I wanted my music track to reflect its soulful energy—the vibe, the spirit and the power,” Aoki said in a statement.
While the auction house hasn’t set a reserve price for the vehicle, it’s safe to assume that it will fetch substantially more than the standard car’s list price of about Dh 2,000,000.
