During Monterey Car Week, we got an up-close look at the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12, which was unlike anything you’d ever spot on the street. Built by Squadra Corse in 2020, it’s Lamborghini’s most extreme track-only car ever! Only 40 were made, with just 7 making it to the U.S. This one, chassis 11604, has single-digit road miles (it hasn’t been driven on a track) and it’s the only Essenza in the world with crimson-tinted exposed carbon fiber. Underneath the rear bodywork is Lamborghini’s most powerful naturally aspirated engine ever: a 6.5-liter V12 that pumps out 819 horsepower and screams to 8,500 rpm. In person, the Essenza SCV12 seemed less like a car and more like a prototype racer with a Lamborghini badge. It sold for a whopping $1,490,000 at auction!
