A street-legal version of the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento has been spotted out and about on UK roads and it’s quite possibly the first of its kind.
The Sesto Elemento was designed and built as a track-only supercar based on the Lamborghini Gallardo.
Lamborghini is rumored to have produced just 10 Sesto Elements, each with a price tag of $2.92 million.
But it seems a street-legal version is finally here.

The Lamborghini Sesto Elemento just got a street-legal makeover
Unveiled in 2010, the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento had a top speed of 240mph (387km/h) and could do 0-62mph (0-100km/h) in just 2.5 seconds.
Under the hood, the car was fitted with the 5.2 liter V10 from the Gallardo Superleggera and produces 562 horsepower.
But the car also came with a hefty price tag of $2.92 million and was, at the time, the most expensive Lamborghini made.
Lamborghini initially planned to build 20 Sesto Elementos, but reportedly created just 10 examples.
One of the reasons suggested for the lower-than-planned production run was the fact that folks weren’t willing to part with so much cash for a car that wasn’t street legal, and is therefore banned on the road in all 50 US states.
However, it seems as though a street-legal version of the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento is now here, thanks to the British tuning company Lazante.
The car was spotted out on the roads in the UK ahead of the Goodwood Festival of Speed by TikTok user jonnys.nb.
Lazante shared a photo of the car on its official Instagram page, hailing it as ‘the first road conversion’.
The official Goodwood Festival of Speed X page also shared footage of the Sesto Elemento racing along the track in front of crowds of car enthusiasts.

“It has a chassis that rivals Van Gogh’s greatest masterpiece, an engine note that contends Beethoven’s greatest symphony, and a name befitting the most stunning Italian countryside,” the post read.
“This is the illustrious Lamborghini Sesto Elemento by Lanzante. Hang it in the Louvre.”
If what we’ve seen at Goodwood is indeed a street-legal version of the Lamborghini Sesto Elemento, it’ll be the first of its kind.
The Sesto Elemento was a very special supercar
The Lamborghini Sesto Elemento was made slightly differently from your average car.
As well as that super powerful Gallardo-sourced V10, it was built using a special plastic and carbon fiber composite that was covered in a thin layer of glossy paint.
This meant the car was a lightweight 2,202lb (999kg), making it capable of flying like a rocket on the track.
The car has become an important part of Lamborghini’s history and will shape future models.
“Every future Lamborghini will be touched by the spirit of Sesto Elemento,” CEO Stephan Winkelmann said.
