At Lamborghini, the idea of an open-top V12 supercar has long been about more than just removing a roof. The company’s so-called “Few-Off” roadsters—ultra-limited, high-concept builds—represent its most uncompromising expressions of design, engineering and exclusivity. In a newly outlined lineage, Lamborghini positions these cars as the purest distillation of its naturally aspirated V12 formula, combining low production numbers with maximal performance and visual impact.
The modern Few-Off roadster story begins with the Lamborghini Reventón Roadster, unveiled in 2009 and limited to just 15 examples. With its fighter jet-inspired design and 6.5-liter V12 producing 650 CV (641 hp), it set the template: extreme styling, cutting-edge materials like carbon fiber reinforced polymer, and a clear emphasis on technological showcases such as Lamborghini’s first fully digital instrument cluster. That formula intensified with the Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, a nine-unit run that leaned heavily into prototype-style aerodynamics and pushed output to 750 CV (740 hp), alongside a 0–62 mph time of 2.8 seconds.
From there, the Lamborghini Centenario Roadster expanded the concept with 20 units built to honor Ferruccio Lamborghini’s 100th birthday. It introduced rear-wheel steering and a more advanced infotainment interface while raising output to 770 CV (759 hp). The most recent entry, the Lamborghini Sián Roadster, marked a turning point, pairing the V12 with a 48-volt electric motor for a combined 819 CV (808 hp), signaling the brand’s transition into electrified performance while maintaining its flagship engine architecture.
While Lamborghini points to the one-off Lamborghini Miura Roadster as the philosophical starting point, these Few-Off roadsters define a modern-era strategy: ultra-exclusive halo cars that serve as both technological testbeds and brand statements. Across each iteration, the constants remain clear—naturally aspirated V12 power, aggressive aero-driven design and production numbers that keep them firmly in collector territory.
Reventón Roadster 2009
The Reventón Roadster, unveiled in 2009, represents the very first Few Off roadster Lamborghini ever produced, embodying radical exclusivity and a futuristic design inspired by fighter jets. Only 15 units of the Reventón Roadster were produced, in addition to 20 coupés. The car combined an angular body with a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 delivering 650 CV. It accelerated from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds and reached a top speed of over 340 km/h. The model introduced the extensive use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer body panels and a hybrid chassis combining steel and CFRP reinforcements. It was also the first Lamborghini equipped with a fully digital instrument cluster featuring three LCD displays, marking a significant technological step forward for the brand.
Veneno Roadster 2014
Presented in 2014, the Veneno Roadster is one of the most radical open-top Lamborghinis ever created and was introduced, in Its coupè version, to celebrate the brand’s 50th anniversary. Limited to just nine units, it represents an extreme interpretation of aerodynamic efficiency inspired by racing prototypes. Powered by a 6.5-liter V12 that produced 750 CV, the Veneno Roadster accelerated from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds and reached a top speed of 355 km/h. Its dramatic bodywork featured large wings, exposed aerodynamic elements and extensive use of carbon fiber, including the patented Carbon Skin® material used for interior components such as the dashboard and seat upholstery.
Centenario Roadster 2016
The Centenario Roadster was a celebration of the 100th anniversary of company founder Ferruccio Lamborghini. Limited to just 20 units, it combined advanced technology with an aggressive and futuristic design. The naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 delivered 770 CV, enabling acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds and a top speed of over 350 km/h. The model introduced several technological innovations including a central infotainment touchscreen and rear-wheel steering, improving agility at low speeds and stability at high speeds. These solutions would later return in future Lamborghini models.
Sián Roadster 2020
The Sián Roadster marks the beginning of Lamborghini’s electrified era. Limited to 19 units, it combined the traditional V12 engine with hybrid technology for the first time in a Lamborghini few-off roadster. The naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 was paired with a 48-volt electric motor integrated into the gearbox, delivering a combined output of 819 CV.
Having its origin with the Miura Roadster and starting from the first Reventón Roadster to the Sián Roadster, the tradition of Lamborghini Few Off roadsters with V12 engines spans more than six decades. Throughout this history, performance, design and emotion remain the constant elements. A Lamborghini Few Off roadster is not simply a convertible, but an extreme expression of engineering and design.
