Lamborghini Miura: Born Incomparable
In 2026, the Automobili Lamborghini Museum celebrates a landmark 60th anniversary of the Lamborghini Miura with the exhibition “Born Incomparable”, which runs from March 18, 2026 to January 2027. The exhibition path tells the story of the birth, evolution and legacy of one of the most iconic models in the history of the brand, and of the global automotive industry.
The exhibition will feature a special selection of models and content related to the Miura, including the original chassis that was presented in 1965, and a Miura P400 S. During the year, two particularly rare cars will also be featured: the Miura Roadster, a unique project created by Bertone in 1968, and the Miura SVJ that was derived from the experimental prototype developed in 1970 by Lamborghini test driver Bob Wallace. Completing the exhibition will be the artwork “Disintegrating X – Miura” by artist Fabian Oefner, reproduced at a 1:1 scale. Alongside this exhibition, the museum will continue to display other iconic models, including Countach, LM002 and the most recent Few-Off creations.
In 2026, Automobili Lamborghini will also host a broader program of celebrations. Throughout the year several initiatives dedicated to the Miura will take place worldwide, including the Lamborghini Polo Storico Tour, organized by the brand’s Heritage department and dedicated to the Miura. Scheduled to run between May 6 to May 10 in Northern Italy, the tour will start in Piemonte and conclude during Lamborghini Arena, the festival of the Sant’Agata Bolognese brand that will take place at the Imola circuit on May 9 and 10.
“For Lamborghini, the Miura represented a moment of extraordinary revolution and a decisive push toward the company’s future. Telling this story through an exhibition dedicated to this iconic model is a fundamental step in celebrating its 60th anniversary,” commented Federico Foschini, Chief Marketing and Sales Officer of Automobili Lamborghini. “With this exhibition we want to offer visitors and enthusiasts the opportunity to see some particularly special examples up close and rediscover the history of the Miura and its fundamental role in shaping Lamborghini’s DNA.”
The Origins of the Miura
The “Born Incomparable” exhibition includes a section on the ground floor of the museum entirely dedicated to celebrating the Miura, retracing the key milestones of its technical and stylistic evolution through some of the most representative examples in its history.
The exhibition path opens with the Miura Chassis, the original chassis first presented at the Turin Motor Show in 1965. Displayed at the time before the car itself, as a bare structure painted in matte black and featuring the V12 engine mounted transversely behind the cockpit, the chassis immediately attracted the attention of both the public and industry experts. The lightweight tubular steel structure, characterized by thin walls and numerous lightening holes, weighed only 120 kilograms and represented a radical technical solution destined to redefine the architecture of road-going sports cars.
Alongside the chassis, the museum will display a Miura P400 S, the evolution of the first Miura presented in 1966. This version introduced several technical and comfort improvements compared to the P400, including a wider track, updated suspension with Koni shock absorbers, and more refined interiors. The 3.9-liter V12 engine delivers 370 CV, confirming the Miura as one of the most high-performance cars of its era and consolidating the model’s role as the progenitor of mid-engined super sports cars.
