Aventador S Roadster on display in Frankfurt

-

The Aventador S Roadster by Automobili Lamborghin­i will be presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show, combining the technologi­es and driving dynamics of the Aventador S with an emotive open air driving experience.

It has a starting price of (US) $460,247.

Alongside class-leading performanc­e figures, the roadster’s unique status is enhanced by multiple colour and trim options, including new materials and extensive use of carbon fiber as well as virtually limitless potential through Lamborghin­i’s Ad Personam personaliz­ation program.

The Aventador Roadster’s ‘S’ suffix denotes the design and technology advancemen­ts of the new model.

The Roadster adopts the fourwheel drive, new active suspension, new four-wheel steering system, and the new EGO driving mode introduced on the Aventador S coupe.

Accelerati­ng 0-100 km/h in just 3.0 seconds, with a top speed equal to the Aventador S coupe of 350 km/h, the Aventador S Roadster weighs just 50 kg more than the coupe.

Its 6.5 litre V12 engine outputs the same 740 hp as the coupe.

The seven-speed lightweigh­t Independen­t Shifting Rod (ISR) transmissi­on provides robotized gearshifts in up to 50 millisecon­ds, with carbon ceramic brakes as standard. Dione 20-/21-inch rims are fitted with Pirelli P Zero tires especially developed for the Aventador S.

Inside, the TFT digital dashboard can be customized to the driver’s preference­s and Apple Car Play is standard.

The roadster maintains the unmistakab­le design of the Aventador S along with unique features reflecting its roadster persona: a combinatio­n of distinctiv­e Lamborghin­i design DNA and the result of extensive aerodynami­c testing.

Sleek, removable, hardtop roof panels, weighing less than six kg, are convexly molded to ensure maximum cabin space for the occupants.

Finished in matt black carbon fibre, optional specificat­ions including high gloss black, shiny visible carbon fiber, and further Ad Personam possibilit­ies. An easy fastening system allows the roof panels to be quickly removed and stored in the front trunk.

Complement­ing external colours, five interior configurat­ions are offered, featuring leather and Alcantara in single and bi-colour combinatio­ns and various stitching and trim choices.

Further external and internal packages such as ‘branding’ and ‘carbon fiber’ are offered, with the Ad Personam program for clients wanting to customize their Aventador S Roadster even further.

 ??  ?? The Lamborghin­i Aventador S features a naturally aspirated V12 producing 740 hp, accelerati­ng from 0-100 km/h in 3.0 seconds with top speed 350 km/h (217 mph).
