The rear end looks similar to the new Lamborghini Huracan, whereas, the front looks loss pointy with three distinct air intakes. The bonnet gets two air vents and the side fenders feature gills.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the design, the Hybrid drivetrain is a first for the Italian company. It gets the Huracan&#8217;s V10 powerplant producing 602 hp and 413 lb-ft. Power is routed to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox. Power is boosted by three brushless electric motors producing 296bhp for a total figure of 898 hp. The batteries are lithium ion units mounted down the centre of the car. Power car be regenerated or topped in by plugging into a powerpoint.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/gtspiritmedia.com\/gtspirit\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lamborghini-asterion-concept6.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/gtspiritmedia.com\/gtspirit\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lamborghini-asterion-concept6-696x385.jpg\" alt=\"Lamborghini Asterion LPI910 4 Hybrid Coupe Concept\" title=\"Lamborghini Asterion LPI910 4 Hybrid Coupe Concept\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-107571\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lamborghini-asterion-concept6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lamborghini-asterion-concept6-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lamborghini-asterion-concept6-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/gtspirit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lamborghini-asterion-concept6.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Asterion gets three driving modes; &#8216;Z&#8217; for zero local-emission running, &#8216;I&#8217; for Ibrido (Italian for hybrid) and &#8216;T&#8217; for Termico, meaning thermal power. Power from the electric motors can be routed to just the front wheels and in fully-electric mode, it manages a range of 31 miles at speeds of up to 78 mph. Hybrid mode manages 0-100 km\/h in just 3.0 seconds with a top speed of 199 mph. 98 g\/km CO2 emissions are expected with an economy figure of 67 mpg.<\/p>\n<p>The structure is a carbon fibre monocoque with carbon composite panels.
