Lamborghini is said to have entered a new era with the recently revealed Temerario and Reveulto.
The two already released models are reportedly set to become the foundation for a range of one-off and limited-production variants.
Filing with the European Union Intellectual Property Office in April this year the firm hinted at a potential name for a new limited-production project in the works.
Lamborghini's filing for a trademark on the name "Fenomeno" is in its "opposition proceedings" which conclude on July 15.
It could be some time before the name is given to a product but Lamborghini might still surprise customers in the coming weeks.
A new limited-edition supercar has been confirmed to be in the works with Lamborghini set to reveal the motor at Monterey Car Week in August.
The brand says its new limited-edition model will "map out the future of Lamborghini super sports cars."
Select clients have reportedly already seen the model with it expected to be Lamborghini's most powerful car ever.
The new model is set to use Lamborghini's V-12 and just 29 examples of the motor are to be produced.
The new supercar will seemingly be named Fenomeno - which is Italian and Spanish for phenomenon.
Lambo owned by British pop star up for auction at huge price
Graphic representation submitted alongside the trademark filing shows the wordmark with styling similar to the brand's other supercars.
Horns appear on the F and O and the word is written in a slanted font.
Recently revealed supercars offered to consumers by the brand feature some pretty punchy engines.
The Revuelto features a 6.5-litre hybrid V-12 offering up a staggering 1,001 horsepower.
The Temerario boasts a twin turbo V-8 with three electric motors and delivers 920 horsepower.
To call a new model a phenomenon in comparison to 1,000 horsepower beasts like the Reveulto suggests the brand is cooking up something really special.
The teased new supercar is likely to boast even more impressive specs with the motor expected to be the brand's most powerful.
To achieve this the new supercar would need to beat out the Reveulto's staggering 1,001 horsepower which currently holds the record for the most powerful Lamborghini.

Fitch maintains Romania's investment-grade rating but budget strains remain
Aug 15 (Reuters) - Fitch maintained Romania's investment-grade credit status on Friday, keeping its "BBB-" rating after the new government pushed through steps to ease its budget deficit, but the outlook remained "negative" due to persistent financial pressures. A re-run presidential election earlier this year brought centrist Nicusor Dan into power in May after the country's worst political crisis in decades. The new broad coalition government has recently pushed through a series of tax increases and spending measures, aiming to cut the European Union's largest budget deficit. "Nevertheless, the socio-economic cost of the fiscal adjustment, tensions within the government coalition and strong support for far-right populist parties remain significant political challenges," Fitch said. The two-month-old cabinet of Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan is already grappling with a stalemate over planned cuts to state spending and public administration jobs. Its largest party, the leftist Social Democrats, have walked out of coalition meetings. The leftists, without which a ruling majority cannot be sustained, oppose cuts to EU-funded investment projects and to a controversial state budget investment scheme for local administrations. Fitch said it estimates Romania's budget deficit will remain among the highest in the "BBB" category, even while easing from last year's 9.3% of output to a forecast 7.4% this year and 6.3% in 2026. "Fiscal consolidation will only mitigate the upward pressure on debt given the very high starting deficit," it added. The central bank, prime minister and finance minister all warned earlier this week that recession risks have increased. Fitch sees growth at 0.7% this year. Like Fitch, Standard & Poor's and Moody's rate central Europe's second-largest economy on the last rung of investment grade with a "negative" outlook. S&P affirmed Romania's sovereign credit rating in an unscheduled ratings review in July but warned that the pending spending cuts will test the cabinet's stability. Moody's will review Romania in September.

Brain drain: Top universities are hoovering up more students, sparking fears lower-ranked colleges may have to merge to survive
Elite universities have hoovered up a larger share of students this year, putting lower-ranked institutions at risk of mergers, data suggests. New analysis by Times Higher Education shows that the top third of universities recruited two-fifths of school-leavers, leaving fewer for the others. These top establishments – mainly made up of the Russell Group – were looking to fill spaces left by a dip in international students. However, if the trend continues, the lower-prestige institutions will become unviable due to lack of numbers, experts warn. Bob Savill, head of student recruitment at the University of Chichester, told THE: 'For the rest of the sector, it's going to be very challenging and... one would imagine we'll see mergers, and so on, in the coming year.' Analysis of Ucas data released on A-level results day show 'higher-tariff' universities – those ranked in the top third for how demanding their entry requirements are – took a disproportionate share of the students this year. Of the total 255,130 UK 18-year-olds accepted on to degree courses, they took 41 per cent. This left 'medium-tariff' ones with 32 per cent of the share and 'lower-tariff' ones with just 27 per cent. The share taken by the top universities is a rise from 40 per cent last year and 37 per cent in 2023. Mark Corver, former managing director of dataHE, said: 'It will widen the effective resourcing gap between universities and mean things are not going to get any easier for lower-tariff [institutions].' The situation has been partly enabled by a rise in top grades, meaning more pupils hit the entry requirements for top universities. Overall, 28.3 per cent of entries got A/A* this year, compared with 27.8 per cent last year, and 25.4 per cent in 2019. Bar the Covid years of 2020-2022, when grades were vastly inflated due to teacher assessment when exams were cancelled, this is the highest proportion on record. The scramble for students has been caused by an overall drop in lucrative international applicants, after a change in visa rules. It meant three quarters of Russell Group universities entered clearing this year, including Durham, Bristol and King's College London. Between them, they had 3,492 courses available – 13 per cent of the 26,000 courses on offer across all universities. The Russell Group was contacted for comment. It comes as a report for Buckingham University found boys were 'chronically underperforming' at GCSE level, with results out on Thursday. Last year, 24.7 per cent of female entries achieved at least a grade 7 (the old A) – compared with 19 per cent of male entries.
