Rare Lamborghini Sián Hybrid Hypercar Heads to Monterey AuctionA Lamborghini that helped push the storied Italian marque into the electrified era is set to cross the auction block in Monterey, California, carrying an estimate of $2.2 million to $2.6 million. RM SothebysThe 2021 Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 is one of only 63 coupes the automaker built, a figure chosen to mark the year the company was founded. Every example was already claimed by the time the car made its public debut at the 2019 Frankfurt motor show, and each was tailored by its owner through Lamborghini's Centro Stile personalization studio, meaning no two cars are identical.Related ArticlesWin a 2026 Corvette ZR1: Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation Launches Biggest Giveaway YetDream Giveaway Offers Chance to Win a Frame-Off Restored 1970 Oldsmobile 442 W30AdvertisementAdvertisementThe Sián marked a turning point for a brand long defined by uncompromising, gas-powered performance. It was Lamborghini's first hybrid, an acknowledgment that alternative propulsion would eventually reach even its most extreme machines. The car's name means "lightning" in the Emilian dialect spoken around Bologna, while the FKP 37 designation honors the late Ferdinand Piëch, the former Volkswagen Group chairman who steered the company's purchase of Lamborghini in 1998.

A compact 48-volt electric system adds another 34 horsepower and, unusually, draws its energy from a supercapacitor rather than a conventional battery. Lamborghini said the arrangement was lighter, more powerful and capable of delivering full output instantly, helping the car sprint from zero to 62 mph in under 2.8 seconds.The design reinterprets the wedge silhouette of the classic Countach while borrowing newer touches such as Y-shaped lighting. Rear cooling vanes open on their own in response to heat, without motors or electronics.
