Lamborghini Centro Stile took care of the design of the Asterion LPI 910-4. Although the study model clearly shows us the well-known design of Lamborghini, the Asterion also shows some new elements. The interior of the car has a minimalistic and modern design with some classic characteristics. The seats are higher than in other models and this makes the usability of the car even better.

The name of the Asterion LPI 910-4 continues a long tradition of model names where Lamborghini honors special bulls. Asterion refers to the Minotaur, a hybrid mythical creature that combines the power and instinct of a bull with the innovation and intellect of a human. Next to that, LP stands for ‘longitudinale posteriore’, the position of the V10, I refers to ‘ibrido’, and 910 symbolizes the amount of power and of course the 4 stands for the four-wheel drive system.
