The Lamborghini Aventador J is a radically open automobile - exterior and
interior meld into each other. The designers and engineers in Sant'Agata
Bolognese have not only dispensed entirely with the roof, but also with the
front windshield. This requires that drivers of the Aventador J must have the
right equipment for driving at top speeds higher than 186 mph (300 km/h).
This kind of driving at the limit is a highly exclusive experience - the
Lamborghini Aventador J is fully functional for road use. It is an absolute
one-off: a one-of-a-kind piece of art.
"With the Lamborghini Aventador J, we have molded our brand DNA into its most
definitive form to date. This automobile is as extreme and as uncompromising as
only a Lamborghini can be," says Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of
Automobili Lamborghini. "The new Lamborghini Aventador J is the most radical
open supersports car of Lamborghini's history. Its name comes from our tradition
and combines an unconventional design with technology innovation. Nowadays we
are confronted with several regulations that we face in the spirit of challenge.
The Aventador J is the proof that, despite the rules, Lamborghini will always
make people dream, even in the future."
The Aventador: Extremely Open, Overwhelming Power
The Lamborghini Aventador J is a super sports car of positively dramatic
single-mindedness and openness. It combines the overwhelming performance of the
Lamborghini Aventador with the most intense experience of power and dynamics
imaginable in an automobile.
The technical basis for the Aventador J is the Aventador LP 700-4, Lamborghini's
new twelve-cylinder model. Presented in 2011, the Aventador has been acclaimed
by customers and journalists alike. The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4's
technology package is unique - its structure is based on an innovative monocoque
made from carbon fiber reinforced polymers that combines systematic lightweight
design with optimum stiffness and safety. The new twelve-cylinder with a
displacement of 6.5 liters and 700 hp (515 kW) combines the best in high-revving
thrills with mighty pulling power. Its super-fast ISR transmission, permanent
all-wheel drive and push-rod suspension combine this potent power with the
utmost handling precision.
