Purpose

I will try my best to provide detailed info on various cars and what is like to live with them, I have already produced a few for Jaguar-car-forums, I will do my best to be unbiased, but it will be hard for some cars. I will re-produce press releases and copy from other motoring news.

Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce roadster makes global debut in California at The Quail.

Automobili Lamborghini unveils the new Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce Roadster in occasion of the Monterey Car week in California. 

The Roadster, presented at the famous event ‘The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering’, is available in a limited series of 500 units worldwide and is the first series produced, open-top Lamborghini to bear the name Superveloce.

‘‘The Superveloce is the purest, most sports-oriented and fastest series production Lamborghini ever. 

The Roadster version represents our commitment to satisfying our passionate clients with immensely emotional driving dynamics combined with an extraordinary open air experience,’’ Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini said during the press conference at The Quail.


As a member of Lamborghini’s storied Superveloce family, the car offers greater performance with a power increase of 50 hp to 750 hp and a dry weight of 1,575 kg (3,472 lb), that is 50 kg (110 lbs) lighter compared to the Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster. This leads to an exceptional power-to-weight ratio of just 2,1 kg/hp (4,6 lb/hp).

The Roadster maintains the coupe’s breathtaking acceleration, sheer power and handling prowess. In an enhancement to the Superveloce coupé experience, the Superveloce Roadster’s features a power rear window that allows the free-flowing engine sound to fill the cabin with invigorating tones and harmonics during spirited driving.

The naturally aspirated, 6.5-liter V12 produces 552 kW (750 hp) at 8,400 rpm and 690 Nm (509 lb-ft) of torque. Acceleration from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) happens in 2.9 seconds with a top speed of more than 350 km/h (> 217 mph).

Lamborghini’s highly innovative 7-speed ISR transmission delivers an incomparably emotional gear shift and transfers the engine’s power to all four wheels through a Haldex Generation IV 4WD system. Of course, as in the SV coupé the car takes advantage of adaptive Magneto Rheological Suspension, a pushrod damping system and Lamborghini Dynamic Steering (LDS) for improved driving dynamics.

And as with the Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster, the SV Roadster comes with a two-piece hardtop made from carbon fibre featuring technologies such as RTM and Forged Composite®, which deliver a perfect surface finish, allow complex design shapes and the highest possible component stiffness combined with extremely low weight. 

Thus, the two roof parts each weigh less than six kilograms (13.2 lb) and can be stowed easily in the luggage compartment. They provide the perfect complement to the monocoque, which is entirely made from carbon fiber.

Deliveries of the Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce Rodster begin in early 2016 with base pricing of 357,000.00 Euros (excl. VAT) or USD 530,075.00 MSRP.

SHANGHAI 2015 - Lamborghini launches the Aventador LP-750-4 Superveloce Limited Edition in China.

  • Asian debut of the new Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce, a limited edition of 600 cars worldwide
  • 2015 marks Lamborghini's 10-year anniversary of entering into China market
  • Greater China remains the world's second largest market for Lamborghini
At the 16th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition, Automobili Lamborghini presents the Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce. 

Making its Asian debut, the Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce is the most sports-oriented, fastest and most emotional series model ever produced by Lamborghini, therefore giving a precise demonstration of Lamborghini's brand values -- Visionary, Cutting-edge and Pure. 

The car is limited to 600 units worldwide.

The Huracán LP 610-4, the successor to the iconic Gallardo, enters the same stage in Hall 6.1. Redefining the benchmark for luxury super sports cars in this segment, the Huracán has not only sustained the successful market performance of its predecessor, but is also destined to create a new legend.


The Aventador LP 700-4 Pirelli Edition, which celebrates the long and ongoing collaboration between the Raging Bull and the prestigious Italian tire manufacturer, is also introduced for the first time to China at this year's Auto Shanghai.

The year 2015 also marks Lamborghini's 10-year anniversary of entering into the China Market, which remains one of the most important markets for Lamborghini worldwide.

''After the worldwide debut last March at the Salon de l'Automobile in Geneva, today we present here in Asia the Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce. 

This new car represents the perfect combination of Lamborghini's expertise in lightweight engineering and sophisticated technical features.

The new Aventador LP 750-4 is the most exclusive, pure and emotional car in our current model range,'' said Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini.

The new Aventador Superveloce continues the Lamborghini tradition of SV models, pushing the boundaries in terms of performance and pure driving emotion. The weight has been further reduced by 50 kg through enhanced lightweight engineering, including significant use of carbon fiber. 

The naturally aspirated V12 engine's power is increased to 552 kW/750 hp. This results in a power-to-weight-ratio of 2.03 kg/hp. The Superveloce accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds and powers on to reach a top speed of more than 350 km/h (more than 217 mph).

USA - Aventador gets its North American debut at the 2015 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance.

Automobili Lamborghini unveiled the Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce at the recent Geneva Motor Show and is hosting its North American debut at this weekend's 2015 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance, on Saturday, March 14 at 5:30 pm on the Oceanside courtyard lawn of the Ritz Carlton, in front of Concours attendees and media.

Due in North American Lamborghini retailers this summer, the Superveloce is the new pinnacle of Lamborghini's flagship Aventador model range - a car created to enhance groundbreaking performance and unmatched design. Its engineers and designers sought to create the fastest and most emotional Lamborghini driving experience yet, thanks to increased engine output, reduced weight, increased aerodynamic performance and a track-focused aesthetic.


The result is pure, inspiring performance. The Aventador Superveloce launches from 0-62 mph in 2.8 seconds and reaches a top speed of more than 217 mph. This establishes the new Aventador Superveloce as the fastest and best-performing Lamborghini in history.

Every system in the car has been reconsidered to enable a new, elevated performance threshold. Engine output of the 6.5-liter V12 engine has been increased to 750 horsepower while weight has been decreased by 110 pounds. Weight savings comes from the removal of non-essential items as well as the lightening of remaining components. 

The infotainment, carpeting, soundproofing and front axle lifting system were all removed while lightweight carbon fiber is used in the production of most body elements and the single-piece racing seats.
