Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4

The 112-car Sián-derived homage to the original — 814 CV / 803 hp of hybrid V12 in a modern Countach silhouette.

Car Collector International Editorial
Orange Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 in a bright studio, front three-quarter view showing the wedge silhouette with hidden headlights, black hexagonal air intakes, sharp shoulder line and black multi-spoke alloy wheels — the 2021 Sián-derived hybrid homage to the original Countach.
Overview

Why this car matters

The Countach LPI 800-4 is a Sián-derived Few-Off unveiled at Monterey in August 2021 and produced for 2021–2022. The 112-unit run references the original Countach's LP 112 project name.

The drivetrain is the Sián's supercapacitor-hybrid V12 package: a naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 producing 780 CV, augmented by a 34 CV supercapacitor-fed electric motor for a combined 814 CV (803 hp), driving all four wheels through a seven-speed ISR automated manual.

The Countach LPI 800-4 is one of a small number of modern Lamborghini Few-Offs to carry a historic model name. Its drivetrain is directly Sián-derived, and its market performance since 2022 has become a reference point for modern Few-Off V12 collectability. It is a distinct model from the 1974–1990 Countach, sharing no platform, engine or bodywork with it.

The Countach LPI 800-4 is one of a very small number of modern Lamborghini Few-Offs that carry a historic model name — a category more or less limited to the Miura Concept (2006, one-off) and the Countach LPI 800-4 itself. Its 112-unit production references the original Countach's LP 112 project name; its drivetrain is directly Sián-derived (Lamborghini's first hybrid road car); and its market performance since 2022 has been a material bellwether for modern Few-Off V12 collectability. Buyers should be clear that it is a distinct model from the 1974–1990 Countach — no components are shared and the two cars sit in different collector categories.

Buyer's Guide

What to look for

Provenance — factory allocation and delivery status

Modern limited-series and Few-Off Lamborghinis are built to a fixed unit count against a factory allocation list. Confirm chassis number, allocation, delivery documents, colour, trim, options and any programme-specific plaque directly against the Lamborghini factory build book before pricing. Confirm that any body-shop work on the Aventador / Sián carbon monocoque has produced full factory sign-off.

Carbon monocoque and chassis integrity

The Lamborghini carbon monocoque (Aventador family) is a structural component. Any repair must produce full factory sign-off; a monocoque repaired without factory documentation is priced against that history. Inspect body panels for evidence of prior accident repair using a paint-depth gauge and factory-authorised body-shop reports.

V12 hybrid drivetrain and factory calibration

The L539 6.5-litre V12 and its supercapacitor hybrid system are factory-specific in calibration, cooling and exhaust routing. Cold-start behaviour, oil pressure, hybrid-system warnings and a continuous factory service history are the primary purchase-time diagnostics.

Supercapacitor system

The supercapacitor and its 34 CV electric motor are serviced only through the authorised Lamborghini network. Confirm that the hybrid system has been checked at each scheduled service and that no stored fault codes are present.

Ownership

Living with it

Typical mileage
500–3,000 miles typical
Service interval
12 months by time or factory mileage interval, whichever first
Annual running cost
$18,000 – $60,000+ depending on use and specification
Fuel economy
12–17 mpg (varies by drivetrain and use)
Insurance
Agreed-value seven- to eight-figure hypercar policy with limited mileage, secure storage, dedicated transport and annual value review. Low-volume Lamborghini Few-Offs and limited-series cars sit at the top of the underwriting band.

Factory-only servicing

All service and any drivetrain, hybrid-system or chassis work must go through the authorised Lamborghini dealer network. Independent supercar shops are not equipped for the carbon monocoque, the supercapacitor hybrid system or Lamborghini-specific engine management.

Parts and reconciliation

Body panels, drivetrain hardware and chassis components are factory-specific and produced in a single limited run. Insist on continuous factory service history and reconcile all work against the Lamborghini service portal.

Long-term outlook

Strong HoldHorizon: 5–10 years

A 112-unit run, a Sián-derived hybrid V12 and a direct model-name reference to the original Countach give the LPI 800-4 a durable identity. Public results to date sit below original list, so continuous factory service history, low delivery mileage and popular specification are the standing filters rather than assumptions of appreciation.
