The Lamborghini Sián is Lamborghini's first hybrid hyper-special and the most limited production Lamborghini in recent years. Unveiled in September 2019 at the IAA in Frankfurt and delivered between 2020 and 2021, the Sián represents a milestone in Lamborghini's electrification: a naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 (derived from the Aventador SVJ) combined with a 48V electric motor and, uniquely in the industry, a supercapacitor in place of a conventional battery. Combined system output is 819 hp. The Sián was delivered as FKP 37 coupé (63 cars, named after Ferdinand Karl Piëch with birth year 1937) and as Sián Roadster (19 cars), with each car fully bespoke-configured via Lamborghini Ad Personam. A Sián is not sold to just any buyer; it is passed on to someone who knows the limited Lamborghini hyper-special culture and values the unique supercapacitor hybrid technology.
The Lamborghini Sián was unveiled in September 2019 at the IAA in Frankfurt as Lamborghini's first series-production hybrid. The full name Sián FKP 37 refers to Ferdinand Karl Piëch, the influential Volkswagen Group chairman who passed away in August 2019, and his birth year 1937. The word 'Sián' is a Bolognese dialect term for 'lightning', referring to the electric component of the hybrid drivetrain. The Sián represented Lamborghini's first step toward electrification, while preserving the naturally aspirated V12 that had defined the company since the 1966 Miura.
The Sián uses the 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 from the Aventador SVJ, uprated to 785 hp at 8,500 rpm. Combined with a 48V electric motor (34 hp), total system output is 819 hp. The hybrid system is unique in the industry: in place of a conventional lithium-ion battery the Sián uses a supercapacitor integrated directly into the gearbox. The supercapacitor has three times the power density of a conventional battery, with substantially faster charge and discharge cycles, and is also lighter (only 34 kg for the entire hybrid installation). The system charges continuously during braking and can be fully recharged within seconds.
Production of the Sián FKP 37 coupé was limited to 63 cars, delivered in 2020. Every car was fully bespoke-configured via Lamborghini Ad Personam, meaning no two Siáns are identical. For collectors this is exceptional: every FKP 37 is literally unique in colour combination, leather specification, factory carbon packs, and specific factory-installed accessories. The factory-installed build plate states the production number (1 to 63) and the specific Ad Personam configuration. For collectors early chassis numbers and complete factory documentation are substantially value-driving.
In September 2020 Lamborghini unveiled the Sián Roadster, limited to only 19 cars. The Roadster retains the same 819 hp naturally aspirated V12 with supercapacitor hybrid, with removable carbon roof panels that can be stored in the front luggage compartment. Due to its lower production (19 versus 63 cars) and open specification, the Sián Roadster is generally priced higher than the FKP 37 coupé. Every Roadster, like the coupé, is uniquely configured via Lamborghini Ad Personam.
The Sián has consistently traded far above the original list price since launch, with factory specifications in seven-figure amounts. Its historical role (first hybrid Lamborghini, last naturally aspirated V12 hyper-special before the Revuelto), the limited production (82 cars total), and the unique Ad Personam specifications make it one of the most valuable modern Lamborghinis. For sellers this means a well-documented Sián with proven Lamborghini service history, original specification, confirmed Ad Personam configuration, and complete factory documentation attracts strong international interest. The buyer you want is a hyper-special collector who values the Sián's unique position within Lamborghini history.
The Sián was delivered as FKP 37 coupé (63 cars, produced in 2020) and as Sián Roadster (19 cars, produced in 2021). The Roadster uses an open specification with removable carbon roof panels. Both specifications share the same 819 hp naturally aspirated V12 with supercapacitor hybrid. For collectors the Sián Roadster, with its lower production (only 19 cars), is generally the most expensive of the two.

For collectors early chassis numbers and complete factory documentation are crucial. Every Sián is uniquely configured via Lamborghini Ad Personam; keep the factory build sheet and confirmation of the specific specification.
Every Sián was fully bespoke-configured via Lamborghini Ad Personam, the extensive custom programme. This includes unique factory colour combinations, personalised leather specification with factory embroidery, extensive factory carbon packs, and specific factory-installed accessories. For collectors, confirmation of the unique Ad Personam configuration via factory documentation is essential.
The Sián is the first series-production car with a supercapacitor in place of a conventional lithium-ion battery. The 48V system and supercapacitor require factory diagnostics for service. Document the status of the hybrid components and proof that the system is fully functional via factory diagnostic report.
Sián service is specialist work: the naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 (derived from the Aventador SVJ), the 48V hybrid components, and supercapacitor require factory diagnostics at a Lamborghini dealer. Major service every two years including inspection of head gaskets, clutch status, coolant, transaxle oil, and hybrid components.
Decisive for the Sián, given the limited production and unique Ad Personam specifications. Apply via a Lamborghini dealer or Polo Storico in Sant'Agata Bolognese based on the chassis number. Confirms factory specification, colour, production number, and all factory-installed Ad Personam options. For collectors essentially mandatory for top valuation.
For Sián collectors low mileage (under 2,500) in original condition is generally strongly value-driving. Document number of previous owners, any trackday participation, factory build sheet, and complete service history. Proof of no damage history and unmodified factory specification is essential for top valuation.
Note: These factors may influence buyer interest. Value depends on many factors.
