The first-generation Lamborghini V12 was a sixty degree (60°) V12 petrol engine designed by Lamborghini, [1] [2] and was the first internal combustion engine ever produced by the firm. It entered production in 1963 as a 3.5 litre displacing 3,465 cubic centimetres (211.4 cu in ) fitted on Lamborghini's first car, the Lamborghini 350GT .
The drivetrain was a 5,707 cc (5.7 L) Lamborghini V12 engine, which had a power output of 499 PS (367 kW; 492 hp) at 5,200 rpm and 425 lb⋅ft (576 N⋅m) of torque at 4,900 rpm. This differed from the twin-turbocharged Rodeck V8 engine in the W8 and the AWX-3, as they were considered to be too costly for series production of the new model.
The V12 Vantage S is claimed to be able to accelerate from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 205 mph (330 km/h), making it the fastest production Aston Martin at the time alongside the One-77. [8] [52] [53] The exhaust on the V12 Vantage S was developed from the company's own One-77. Styling and aerodynamic changes ...
An evolution of the 1964 DOHC prototype “XJ13” engine, the Jaguar V12 engine is a family of SOHC internal combustion V12 engines with a common block design, that were mass-produced by Jaguar Cars for a quarter of a century, from 1971 to 1997, mostly as 5.3‑litres, but later also as 6‑litres, and 7‑litre versions that were deployed in ...
The design of the Lambo V12 Vision Gran Turismo reflects characteristic Lamborghini lines, while exploring bold and futuristic ideas. The distinctive central line and hexagonal side windows recall the Lamborghini Marzal of 1968, while the "Y"-shaped light signatures at the front and rear reinterpret an iconic element of the brand.
The AML V12 is A365-T6 aluminium, features a deep-skirt six-bolt main block, thin-wall press-in liners and directly mounts nearly all of its drive accessories. It features 3.0mm-larger main bearings, a bank-to-bank offset approximately 15mm less than the V6, and has a completely different casting design including a precision water jacket.
The Zonda C12-S [8] uses a modified version of the M120 V12 engine used in the C12 enlarged to 7,010 cc (7.0 L; 427.8 cu in). [9] Tuned by Mercedes-AMG, the engine has a power output of 550 PS (405 kW; 542 hp) and is mated to a newly developed CIMA 6-speed manual transmission in order to handle the high power output produced by the engine.
The MP4/6 was the first McLaren to be powered by a Honda V12 engine, which Honda quote at 735 PS (725 bhp; 541 kW) at 13,500rpm. [3] The car was tested by Berger in the off-season, but he was unimpressed with the initial version of the new engine, feeling it was underpowered compared to the 690 bhp (515 kW; 700 PS) V10 engine used in the 1990 car, the MP4/5B.
