“This valuable and renowned recognition confirms the direction of the design DNA we are shaping with the team at Lamborghini Centro Stile, and underscores our future strategy,” said Mitja Borkert, Design Director of Automobili Lamborghini. “Fenomeno is a manifesto of style that expands our design language once again in an unexpected way, going beyond expectations and continuing the bloodline of our successful few-off cars in an athletic and elegant way. It is a project that looks to the future while decisively reinforcing our stylistic tradition.”

The Red Dot Design Award is one of the most prestigious recognitions in the world of design. The award celebrates excellence and innovation across three disciplines: Product Design; Brands & Communication Design; and Design Concept, evaluating thousands of international entries every year. The Red Dot: Best of the Best hallmark represents the highest distinction, reserved for projects that establish new benchmarks in quality, creativity, and vision in contemporary design. The official award ceremony will take place on July 7 at the Aalto Theater in Essen, Germany.

Fenomeno embodies a new chapter in Lamborghini’s design language: it celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Centro Stile by introducing the concept of hyper-elegant design, where every element is reduced to its essence and combines formal purity with maximum functional effectiveness.

The front end stands out with a bold layout featuring large racing-inspired air intakes and an all-new daytime running light signature that pays tribute to the horn featured in the Lamborghini logo. The design also includes references to iconic Lamborghini styling elements such as the Y-shaped graphics, visually connecting the carbon fiber front splitter to the sharply designed headlights.

The side profile is defined by a single continuous line running across the entire car, reinterpreting Lamborghini’s silhouette in a contemporary way while recalling the long tail design of the Essenza SCV12. The launch livery in Giallo Crius emphasizes the upper volumes, while the lower carbon fiber elements, including racing-derived aerodynamic profiles, actively contribute to performance.

Under the hood, Fenomeno reaches a new technological peak: the most powerful naturally aspirated V12 engine ever created by Lamborghini, is paired with three electric motors for a total output of 1,080 horsepower. Thanks to innovative technologies and lightweight materials combined with exceptional power, Fenomeno is the fastest Lamborghini ever created: it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds and from 0 to 200 km/h in 6.7 seconds, reaching a top speed of over 350 km/h. The weight-to-power ratio of 1.64kg/CV also sets a new benchmark for the brand.

With the “Red Dot: Best of the Best 2026” award, Automobili Lamborghini reaffirms its position as a design innovator, guiding the brand into a new era of stylistic vision.
