When the very first Lamborghini to wear a hybrid powertrain crosses the block at the Quail Auction in 2026, it will do so with a story that reads more like a limited-edition art commission than a used-car listing. This 2020 Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 is one of just 63 coupes ever built, and the example headed to auction has covered a mere 284 miles from new. It arrives as a fascinating chapter in Sant'Agata history, sitting somewhere between the brand's naturally aspirated grand tourers and the electrified hypercars that would follow.At the heart of the Sián is a 6.5-liter V12 paired with a compact 48-volt hybrid system, an unusual setup that uses a supercapacitor rather than a conventional battery to store and deliver energy. The combination produces a headline figure of 808 horsepower, enough to launch the car from zero to 62 mph in less than 2.8 seconds and on to a top speed of around 220 mph. More than the raw numbers, though, the Sián represented Lamborghini's first public step toward electrification while keeping its signature naturally aspirated twelve firmly in the spotlight.Photo: Broad Arrow AuctionsThe name itself carries meaning. "Sián" translates from Bolognese dialect as a flash of lightning, a nod to the hybrid hardware, while "FKP 37" honors the late Volkswagen Group chairman Ferdinand Karl Piëch, born in 1937. Wedge-shaped and aggressively creased, the bodywork leans hard into the design language Lamborghini established with its limited-run halo cars, complete with hexagonal detailing and rear lighting inspired by the Countach.AdvertisementAdvertisementWhat sets this particular car apart is how heavily it was personalized. It wears a striking finish that blends Bianco Asopo and Grigio Liqueo with fading Verde Lampros accents, wrapped over a Nero Cosmus leather interior. According to the auction catalog, the build includes the roughly $105,000 Carbon Package 1 along with more than $157,000 in Ad Personam exterior appointments, making it a deeply bespoke example even by hypercar standards.Photo: Broad Arrow AuctionsThe provenance is equally tidy. The Sián has had a single private owner, retains its original window sticker, and is offered with a clean CARFAX report and chassis number ZHWUJ7ZD2LLA10118. With just 284 miles showing at the time of cataloging, it is about as close to delivery-fresh as a five-year-old hypercar can be. Broad Arrow Auctions lists a pre-sale estimate of $2,500,000 to $3,000,000.For collectors watching how limited-production Lamborghinis hold their value, the Sián is an interesting case study: a technological milestone, a tiny production run, and a nearly untouched odometer all in one package. Whether it changes hands within its estimate or pushes beyond it, this is exactly the kind of car that keeps eyes fixed on the Monterey-week docket.Images and listing details courtesy of Broad Arrow Auctions.⚡️ Read the full article on MotoriousSign up for the Motorious Newsletter.
