Therefore, the name of the breeder as well as the bull as a logo strongly influenced the brand Lamborghini.<\/p>\n<p>In the same year, Ferruccio Lamborghini presented the Lamborghini Miura, <strong>at that time the fastest car in the world<\/strong>. It was one of the first highly motorized two-seaters ever. With its fascinating exterior and the V12 mid-engine, the Lamborghini Miura brought changes to the automotive industry unlike almost every other car. It presented a top speed of 280 km\/h and a sprint from 0-100 km\/h in 6,7 seconds. With this performance, the Lamborghini Miura set new standards in the sports car segment. Consequently, <strong>Lamborghini now was established as a brand<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Not only the exceptional performance was remarkable, but also the design. The unmistakable <strong>\u201ceyebrows\u201d around the head lights<\/strong> instantly became the trademark of the Lamborghini Miura.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;848&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/anuvpH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Picture<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/rgt3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Romain Drapri<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-nd\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CC-BY-NC-ND<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Enhancements of the Lamborghini Miura<\/h3>\n<p>475 units of the basic model with 350 HP were produced.

Finally, a large revision brought the <strong>Lamborghini Miura SV<\/strong> with a 385 HP strong engine<\/p>\n<h3>The influence on future models<\/h3>\n<p>The successor, the <strong>Lamborghini Countach<\/strong>, achieved similar success.
