In fact the Countach name itself derives from a word for shock and awe in the Piedmontese dialect, with the LPI representing the hybrid powertrain, 800 in some form the 814 horsepower, and the 4 wheel drive.

For the Countach, it has been a project for Centro Stile to make a modern interpretation on the original and that famous wedge shape carries through along with numerous other design references such as the horizontal and low front nose, the raise intakes and gills, even the slatted rear deck./Shmee150
