What is the Lamborghini Veneno?
The Veneno is a road-going supercar with the look of a racing prototype. Its sharply sculpted body is shaped around aerodynamics and cornering stability, while its carbon-fibre monocoque and bodywork give the car a distinctive lightweight construction.
Lamborghini introduced the Veneno in 2013 as a celebration of the company’s 50th anniversary. It belongs to the marque’s few-off cars: special models that explore bold design and technology beyond its regular range.
Engine and power
The Veneno has a naturally aspirated 6.5 L petrol V12, a hallmark of Lamborghini’s flagship supercars. Its focus on airflow and stability carries through to the dramatic exterior, while carbon fibre features throughout the structure and bodywork.
Lamborghini has built its identity around striking design and powerful engines. The Veneno brings those themes together in a road-certified car inspired by racing prototypes.
Fuel consumption and markets
In the United States, the EPA combined rating is 13 MPG, with consumption also listed as 18.1 L/100 km. The official US registration figures cover 2014–2015. Canada’s NRCan five-cycle figure is 18.4 L/100 km for 2015. These results use different national test procedures, so they are not directly equivalent. European figures use WLTP or NEDC procedures.
Petrol is the listed fuel in both the US and Canadian markets. The Veneno’s focused design and V12 engine make it an extreme expression of Lamborghini’s supercar character.
