Kunos Simulazioni has confirmed that the Lamborghini Countach LP5000 Quattrovalvole will be coming to the game’s V0.6 Early Access build.
- Lamborghini Countach LP5000 Quattrovalvole coming to AC Evo
- Two more cars still to be revealed ahead of the V0.6 build release
Kunos Simulazioni revealed that the original supercar poster boy of the ‘70s will be coming to Assetto Corsa Evo’s V0.6 build.
The Lamborghini Countach was the epitome of what a teenager would imagine a supercar to be: gullwing doors, outlandish fins and wings and a bold, angular design. All this was mated to a wailing V12 engine and perhaps the least practical car of its time.
The Countach was produced between 1974 and 1990, making it one of the longest-lived supercar models (we’re looking at you, Nissan GT-R). The variant previewed by Kunos appears to be the LP5000 Quattrovalvole (QV), replete with an optional rear wing.
The LP5000 QV was manufactured between 1985 and 1988, making the teaser trailer’s New Order soundtrack particularly nostalgic, because if you pushed this twitchy raging bull too far, it would certainly be a Blue Monday for your bank balance: these cars can fetch over £500,000 today…
The Early Access V0.6 build of AC Evo is likely to be released shortly and will include six cars and one track.
So far, Sebring International Raceway, the Ferrari 288 GTO, Ferrari 296 GT3 and Ford Mustang GT3 have been confirmed for release, with two more cars still to be revealed.
