Lamborghini Sián Roadster Offers The Ultimate Futuristic Top-Down Experience

The Lamborghini Sián Roadster is a limited-edition, open-top hybrid version of the iconic Sián coupe, with only 19 units to be produced. It uses a supercapacitor instead of a lithium-ion battery to store energy from regenerative braking to provide an instant power boost to the car's 819hp V12 engine. Acceleration from 0-100 kph takes less than 2.9 seconds, with a top speed of 350 kph. The innovative hybrid system aims to provide the ultimate futuristic top-down driving experience.

Lamborghini Sián Roadster offers the ultimate futuristic top-

down experience

Lamborghini is known for following up its coupe releases with a roadster version, and
the Lamborghini Sián is the latest model to keep this tradition. Say hello to the ultra-
rare Lambo Sián Roadster, of which only 19 units will be made.

The limited edition roadster version of The Raging Bull’s immediately iconic V12 is an
open-top hybrid that uses a world-first “super capacitor in hybrid solution” that stores ten
times the capability of a lithium-ion battery. The power source even serves some weight
distribution functionality, with its placement at the bulkhead between cockpit and engine.
Weighing a mere 34kgs, this system delivers a remarkable weight-to-power ratio of 1.0
kg/hp.

Aside from that and the open-top setup, the Sián Roadster is basically the same as a regular
Sián, with a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 sitting under the hood, albeit uprated
from 807 to 819hp thanks to the use of titanium intake valves and other tweaks. The
electric motor alone can power the car with 34hp, which is enough speed for cruising down
on city streets or navigating parking lots.

Of course, the electrified setup won’t be complete without a regenerative braking


function, and the on installed in the Sián Roadster offers a complex and efficient system
befitting the marque.

The symmetric configuration of the supercapacitor power source—operating contrarily to


its regular lithium-ion counterparts—can be charged and discharged with the same power,
fully charging the Sián’s energy storage system every time the vehicle brakes. The energy
stored is an instantly-available power boost, providing up to up to 130 kmph when the e-
motor disconnects automatically.

According to Lamborghini, the innovative system also provides instant acceleration in low
gears, with improved traction force provided by the combination of V12 engine and hybrid
system.

As for the rest of the Lamborghini Sián Roadster’s performance numbers, acceleration
from 0 to 100 kmph is attainable in less than 2.9 seconds, and top speed sits at a cozy 350
kmph.

Unfortunately, all 19 units are already accounted for. For those looking to purchase a
Lamborghini, we do have the mid-engine Aventador, the sporty Huracán, and the Urus
SUV sold locally.
