The 90-degree V8 twin-turbo motor of Lamborghini’s future Lamborghini LMDh<\/strong> vehicle has some of the first facts about its internal combustion system, and it appears promising for racing in the World Endurance Championship and the IMSA Championship. With the help of French engine builder Ligier Automotive, Lamborghini will assemble the first engine created from scratch by its internal motorsport division, Lamborghini Squadra Corse. However, we do know that the twin-turbo V8 engine will be completely different from the production-based V10 engines that power the Huracan GT3 and Super Trofeo race cars.<\/p>\n

On the Lamborghini LMDh Prototype, Lamborghini has partially lifted the curtain, exposing the first racing engine wholly created by Squadra Corse. With a P1359 hybrid gearbox created by Xtra, power management and energy storage by Williams Advanced Engineering, and an electric motor from Bosch Motorsport, the twin-turbo V8 features a hybrid system that produces 681 horsepower. The car’s top speed of 211 mph and light weight of just 2,270 lbs (without fuel) should be more than enough for participation in the GTP class of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and the FIA World Endurance Championship in 2024.<\/p>\n
