LAMBO ROADSTER
Lamborghini’s $460,000 Aventador S Roadster tips the scales at 740 horsepower and boils the blood with a 0-100 km/h of just three seconds.
The Aventador S Roadster by Automobili Lamborghini was 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 CarPlay 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.
