The 2023 Lamborghini Super Trofeo Asia was the tenth season of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo Asia. The season began on May 5 at Sepang International Circuit, and concluded on November 17 with the World Final at the Vallelunga Circuit. The season marked the series' return after a three year hiatus owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Pro class championship was dominated by the New Zealand duo of Marco Giltrap and Chris van der Drift, capturing the title with two rounds to spare. Absolute Racing teammates Aniwat Lommahadthai and Pasarit Promsombat secured the Am class title. Other championship winners included Oscar Lee and Dan Wells in the Pro-Am division, and Supachai Weeraborwornpong in the Lamborghini Cup.
