The Eccentrica V12 finally debuts in dynamic mode, a project created by the company based in San Marino. The restomod of the Lamborghini Diablo was also revealed in motion during The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering. This is a limited production car, which combines the most “classic” shapes of the Diablo with cutting-edge technologies, featuring for the first time a powerful naturally aspirated V12 engine with a 60° angle.
The heart of Eccentrica V12
Under the skin, the Eccentrica V12 has a 5.7-liter V12 engine, a descendant of the first generation Diablo from the early 1990s and capable of delivering 550 hp and 600 Nm of torque. The engine is accompanied by a customized 6-speed gearbox with re-proportioned ratios and a new power steering for optimal performance, an element absent from the first series of Diablo (1991-1994). New cams, electronic throttle body and optimized flywheel further increase the performance of the Eccentrica V12 which not only reaches the impressive figure of 550 hp more progressively than the original engine, but increases the top speed by a good 10 km/h compared to the already very fast Diablo, reaching an estimated top speed of 335 km/h.
Colombini’s vision
Emanuel Colombini, founder and president of Eccentrica, expressed his enthusiasm for the project: “The Eccentrica V12 is a project close to my heart, born from my lifelong passion for the Diablo. Despite my deep admiration for the original design, I wanted to improve the driving experience. What you see here today is the result of the effort of our engineering team who have worked hard to produce a car that transcends the boundaries of what has been possible in terms of technology and performance. It is a thoroughly modern hypercar, with the heart and soul of a 90s classic.”
The technical details
Further technical improvements include the reinforcement of chassis components using composite materials, as well as an improved double wishbone suspension with TracTive active shock absorbers. This advanced setup allows for three different configurations to choose from and includes a front axle lift system that allows for an easy and responsive ride. In addition, the vehicle features a completely new exhaust system, developed by Capristo to ensure an absolutely thrilling experience. In terms of braking capacity, the Eccentrica V12 is equipped with an innovative Brembo braking system that boasts the first matt-painted calipers produced by the brand. The advanced technology provides superior braking performance, ensuring greater safety on the road. In addition, Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tires ensure greater road holding, therefore greater grip, safety and speed, while the new 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels are larger and lighter for a more solid driving experience.
The interiors
The interior of the Eccentrica V12 demonstrates a perfect balance between classic design and innovation. The cabin retains the retro-futuristic look of the Diablo but is enriched by the integration of the most advanced technologies in the steering wheel, dashboard, digital infotainment system, cameras located on the rear-view mirror and control surfaces. All this provides the driver with an immersive and cutting-edge experience. To further enhance the overall sensory experience, the Eccentrica V12 is equipped with a fully custom Marantz audio system. No detail has been left to chance: from the high-quality materials, to the position of the speakers and other components, this audio system completes the driving experience, transforming every journey into a memorable sensory experience.
To owners from 2025
Only 19 models will be produced, each one highly customizable to the owner’s specifications, ensuring exclusivity and one-of-a-kindness. First deliveries will take place in early summer 2025. The debut at The Quail also comes on the heels of the recent appointment of visionary Maurizio Reggiani as Advisor to Eccentrica. Drawing on his decades of experience with companies including Maserati and Bugatti, and having previously served as CTO and Vice President of Motorsport at Lamborghini, Reggiani will provide strategic and technical guidance, drive innovation and offer expert insight throughout the Eccentrica’s production phase.
