October 2, 2025 marks a symbolic date for the Lamborghini The Centro Stile, the brand's creative heart, celebrates its 20th anniversary. Inaugurated in the early 2000s, this department has shaped the stylistic DNA of Sant'Agata Bolognese supercars, from the Murciélago to the Aventador, including the Huracán, Urus, Temerario, Revuelto and Fenomeno. In two decades, it has become much more than just a design office: a design laboratory where the lines that will mark the next generations of cars are drawn.
Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Lamborghini, recalled how the Centro Stile is "an integral engine of the brand", capable not only of creating unforgettable production models, but also of constantly pushing the boundaries with concepts, special series and one-offs that thrill collectors the world over.
But it was at the anniversary party on Saturday, October 5, that Lamborghini reserved a major surprise. In a confidential atmosphere, surrounded by hand-picked guests, an unprecedented concept was unveiled: Lamborghini Manifesto. A rolling, radical sculpture, not intended for mass production, but to show the aesthetic direction the brand might take in the coming decades.
Mitja Borkert, Lamborghini's Design Director, spoke with emotion:
"Yesterday was a wonderful day and evening for us. We celebrated more than 20 years of Centro Stile Lamborghini. I'm proud to support this anniversary with a visionary sculpture, the Lamborghini Manifesto, which illustrates the future potential of our DNA design."
The concept stands out for its futuristic, minimalist approach: extreme proportions, taut surfaces, sharp Y-shaped headlights and a low, aggressive silhouette that pushes Lamborghini's language even further. An almost sculptural vision, conceived as a style manifesto rather than a functional prototype.

It's actually more of a 1:1 scale model than a prototype.
Now, there's no guarantee that we'll soon be seeing a "one-off" featuring this magnificent manifesto (in return for an 8-figure transaction).
One lesson: after the Fenomeno and now this Manifesto, the yellow/carbon livery is clearly (no pun intended) Lamborghini's signature - no surprise there.
This fluid yet clear-cut design is reminiscent of Bertone prototypes from the early 70s: Stratos zero, Alfa Carabo, Lambo Bravo ... Not surprising, since their designer was none other than the father of the Countach.
