The 12 Hours of Sebring saw Lamborghini’s new SC63 prototype race car make its American debut. Lamborghini is the latest car to enter the new LMDh class. The SC63 will race alongside Porsche, BMW, Alpine, Cadillac, and Acura.

The LMDh class melds regulations for Le Mans and Daytona hybrid racecars. Makers will compete in the highest-level endurance racing against global competitors.

Lamborghini will compete with the Iron Lynx Racing Team for the remainder of the 2024 schedule. One more Lambo will get the nod and join the fleet for 2025.

When the LMDh concept came up, it was tempting for us. We are transitioning from ICE engines to hybrid cars. This is one reason it perfectly fits to do LMDh for testing ideas. We have to have a learning curve. — Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman

Every LMDh team uses the same battery-electric hybrid system provided by Bosch. Teams employ their internal combustion engines and unique aerodynamic packages on top of one of four chassis options.
