Lamborghini Aventador S Launched At Rs 5.01 Crore

Automobili Lamborghini India has introduced the Aventador S in the country at a price tag of Rs 5.01 Crore (ex-showroom, India). It is the facelifted version of the Aventador coupe and features a new front bumper, rear bumper, diffusers and air intakes. All these changes on the exterior make the car more aerodynamic. For instance, the new front splitter and diffuser add 130 per cent more downforce, thus making the car firmly planted on the road. The Aventador S was globally unveiled in December last year and is Lamborghini’s second launch in the country this year after the Huracan RWD Spyder, which was introduced on February 1, 2017.

The interiors aren't much different, from the standard Aventador and it still features the jet-fighter inspired cockpit. However, the old-school analogue dials in the instrument cluster have been replaced by LCD TFT display. The Italian super carmaker is also offering tonnes of customisation options. You can personalise your Aventador S through Lamborghini's personalisation division.

The naturally aspirated, 6.5-litre V12 motor is coupled to a 7-speed automatic gearbox which sends power to all four wheels. The big motor churns out 740PS of power and 690Nm of torque. All these mechanicals help the Aventador S reach 100kmph mark from a standstill in just 2.9 seconds, with a top speed of 350kmph.   

The most unique feature of the Aventador S is its four-wheel steering. While at low speeds the rear wheels turn in the opposite direction compared to the front, at high speeds they turn in the same direction. This helps to achieve a shorter turning radius at low speed and better cornering ability at high speeds.

The new Aventador S also features a new driving mode, the 'EGO', apart from the existing Strada, Sport and Corsa. The EGO mode lets the driver choose individual settings for the steering, suspension and engine.  

The Ferrari 812 Superfast and the Aston Martin Vanquish are its primary rivals in the international market. The Aventador S replaces the standard Aventador in India and its Spyder variant is likely to be introduced sometime later this year.
