PARIS -- In the wake of the debuts of the McLaren P1, the Porsche 918 Spyder, and the LaFerrari,

 Half and half supercars are the new hotness nowadays and Lamborghini needs a slice of the profits. 


At the 2014 Paris Motor Show, the Italian automaker revealed the Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910-4. 

Lamborghini puts a brazen turn on its custom of giving so as to name its models after bulls the Asterion the name of a minotaur - a legendary half breed that is part man and part bull. That is really shrewd, yet what I'm most keen on isn't the mixture name, however the module half breed (PHEV) force train. 

The Asterion begins with a 5.2-liter, actually suctioned V-10 motor that yields an expressed 610-strength and 413 pound-feet of torque and includes a trio of electric engines. The main is a coordinated starter engine and generator that lives between the V-10 motor and its 7-rate double grip transmission at the back hub, enlarging the motor's torque yield, creating power for alternate engines and the battery pack, and permitting the gas plant to stop and begin promptly as required. The staying two electric engines sit on the front hub giving all-wheel drive footing and torque vectoring. 

Aggregate force when the greater part of the electric engines and the V-10 are working in show is expressed at 910 torque. Zero to 62 mph (100 kph) happens in only 3 seconds prior to the Asterion proceeds with forward to its top rate of 198.8 mph (320 kph). 

On the Asterion's controlling wheel, you'll discover catches that permit the choice of one of three motor driving modes. Zero is the full-electric mode that makes utilization of vitality put away in the lithium-particle battery pack - situated in the vehicle's inside passage - to drive just the front wheels. The thought of a FWD Lamborghini is entertaining, yet the Asterion's 31-mile (50-km) completely electric driving extent does make it convincing for around-town cruising. 

The following mode, I for "Ibrido," is the standard cross breed operation where the V-10 and electric engines cooperate, conveying up to the full 910 horses and as low as 98 g/km CO2 emanations. At long last, T for "Termico" (warm) drives the vehicle utilizing just the gas motor's yield at the back wheels 

Like any great supercar, the Asterion LPI 910-4 puts its powertrain in plain view. The longitudinal, raise amidships motor is showcased underneath a straightforward motor spread contained three hexagonal glass areas. These boards pivot and reorient, contingent upon the driving mode chose - immaculate electric, cross breed, or unadulterated fuel. 

The lodge and the skeleton outline point to the Asterion being conceptualized as a more agreeable Lamborghini cruiser - based for day by day driving on open streets, as opposed to a hard and fast track device. The seating position is somewhat higher than in the Huracan and Aventador. The A columns, while still forcefully slanted, are more upright, bearing the driver and traveler expanded perceivability and more headroom. Despite the fact that there's scarcely space for a tablet case in the Aventador, the Asterion brags a baggage compartment at the auto's front that ought to be developed on account of the absence of a front driveshaft and differential. 

At the focal point of the dashboard, a compact tablet handles infotainment capacities, for example, GPS, sound controls, and atmosphere controls.

get lost while noiselessly lurking even the most overly complex lanes with this minotaur.
