Edmunds takes the new Lamborghini Aventador for a test drive
As many exotic car fans may know, Lamborghini has been working diligently on a new replacement to take over the reins as their new flagship car (to replace the Murcielago).
Here is Edmunds’ write-up on the new car, which is scheduled to make its official debut to the general public in March 2011 at the Geneva Motor Show. Rumor has it that it will be called the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4.
The main highlights of this new car are an all-new 6.5 Liter V12 engine putting out 700 bhp, an all-carbon fiber tub, and a new ultrafast-shifting ISR transmission (Independing Shifting Rod) that shifts gears in an effortless 50 milliseconds. From the various descriptions of the car, it also sounds like this 1st iteration of the Aventador leaves some room for further refinement, such as bumping up the horsepower over time and room for adding more carbon fiber highlights to the interior and exterior of the car.
So for those of you ready to open up your wallet to place a deposit for the new Aventador, you might want to wait until the 1st-year kinks have been worked out and it’s gone through its 1st “refresh” stage. But then again, if you have the money and you want it now, you will definitely have an exotic car far ahead of the current competition.
