Aventador Lamborghini LP 700 4 2012 Review

With Aventador LP 700-4, Lamborghini redefines the ultimate super market in the world of sports cars - the brutal power, outstanding lightweight engineering and phenomenal handling precision are combined with superior design and the best equipment to provide a unique driving experience. With Aventador, Lamborghini is a big step forward - and to build on the glorious history of the brand with the caption next car. The first customers will receive the new Lamborghini LP 700-4 Aventador late summer of 2011 e

The technology package of the Lamborghini LP 700-4 Aventador is absolutely unique. It is based on an innovative monocoque carbon fiber that combines exceptional light engineering with the highest levels of stiffness and safety. The new twelve-cylinder 6.5-liter displacement and 515 kW / 700 hp to comply with the latest high-revving fun with amazing low-end torque. With a dry weight of just 1575 kg (3472 lbs), which is extremely low for this class of vehicle, the power to weight ratio of only 2.25 kg per hp (4.96 kg / hp). Even the great value of the acceleration of 0-100 km / h (0-62 mph) in just 2.9 seconds and top speed of 350 km / h (217 mph) does not fully describe the extreme performance is winnowing. However, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions have been reduced by 20 percent over its predecessor, despite the considerable increase in power (8%).

ISR transmission is unique among current road vehicles, ensuring the best changing weather (only 50 milliseconds) and feeling very emotional trip, while the lightweight chassis with suspension push offers absolute precision handling and competition in performance. The interior offers specifically designed hi-tech capabilities ranging from cockpit with TFT drive select system.

The sculpture of extreme dynamics.

For Lamborghini, design is always the beauty of aggressive energy, elegance, impressive dynamics. At first glance, the new Aventador is, without doubt, a Lamborghini, clothing characteristic of the brand and the distinctive design language - with its extremely powerful proportions, lines and surfaces exactly accurate, and the muscles tense in every detail. The Lamborghini Centro Stile designers have carefully developed design language to give the Aventador a significant advantage of the new. This is a pioneering work of art, a dynamic sculpture, from the front line exacerbated by the very low ceiling for the distinctive rear diffuser. Each line has a clear function, every form is dictated by their need for speed, but the overall look is nothing short of spectacular and impressive.

Doors open upwards - naturally.

Really impressive proportions will be the total length of 4.78 meters (188.19 cm), adapted to the width of 2.26 meters active (88.98 inches), including the exterior mirrors, and further emphasizes the very low height of only 1.136 mm (44.72 inches). Needless to say, both ports of the carbon fiber monocoque open up - a feature that was introduced for the first time the legendary Countach and then used later in the model V12, like Diablo and Murciélago. However, the Aventador also raises its immediate predecessor, the Murciélago - electronically managed air intakes open depending on outside temperature and the need for cooling air, ensuring maximum aerodynamic efficiency. And for those who wish to circumvent them in the heart of the Lamborghini, the optional transparent engine hood has a twelve-cylinder, as a showcase for the technical work of art.
