2015 Lamborghini Aventador Superveloce review - Autocar

What is it. : The Lamborghini Aventador always deserved better. Any car that counts the F117 Nighthawk among its design inspirations and an in-house 690bhp V12 as its power source ought to live permanently in the upper echelons of our affection. The Murcielago’s replacement was too crude and uncommunicative from the get go. as fast as a theme park ride, certainly - but it was a ride you were as happy to get out of as to get in. Lamborghini has addressed these problems in a manner wholly... Even more typically, it has then called the car something slightly different, limited the volume to 600 examples and jacked up the price by £60k. Fortunately, the Superveloce badge already means a great deal to the Lamborghini faithful. Feel, comfort and finesse were the Aventador’s deficiencies, but early suspicion is that these have been straightened out, too. The SV’s overhaul incorporates an improved dynamic steering rack, adaptive dampers, a recalibrated all-wheel drive system and a fixed rear wing that generates enough downforce to apparently make the V12’s extra grunt necessary beyond 125mph. The new SV-branded bucket seats and flat-bottomed steering wheel look great and play their part. Source: www.autocar.co.uk
