This is Lambo's latest, most advanced Aventador ever. New aero dominates the entire bull, with its overall physique now much sleeker although equally pronounced as ever. This Aventador S being Lamborghini's successor as the next generation V12 flagship carries with it a number of new tech additions as well.



Performance

Firstly, the almighty NA V12 is now further optimized to the tune of 740hp. That's 40hp more than before, achieved by means of tweaking its VVT and VIS (Variable Intake System). This refreshed V12 also screams quite a bit louder too, having had its rev limiter raised from 8,350rpm to an all-new 8,500rpm mark.

Zerotohundred sprint is now dealt with in 2.9 seconds, with much thanks to Lamborghini's own Lightweight Independant Shifting Rod (ISR) 7 speed 'box. Now capable of super rapid 50 milisecond shift times. This incredible acceleration is heavily contributed by the Aventador S's new 1,575 dry weight, equating to just 2.13kg per hp.



There's also a new exhaust system. Introduced as part of a substantial R&D project, this exhaust is 20% lighter than its predecessors and further enhances Lamborghini's signature howl. Exhaust exiting the dirty dozen leads to their latest, 3 single pipe outlet design. No more 4 pipes.

Rear Wheel Steer

Totally new from the Lamborghini lair is their all wheel steer poison. Introduced for the first time and on their flagship V12 beast, this LRS (Lamborghini Rear Steering) is set to redefine driving dynamics of the Aventador S.

Critics are praising the Aventador S's brilliant new handling characteristics that seem to defy gravity. With the introduction of rear wheel steering, much like Porsche's own version in their recent 991.2 releases, this active rear axle provides a level of driving agility that is almost godlike.



Along with this Lamborghini Rear Steering integration comes with a host of electronic driving modes that are designed to offer unparalleled driver customization. Dubbed the EGO Concept, drivers can dial in on their desired response from the engine, transmission 4WD system, Rear wheel steering and dynamic suspension.

The EGO Mode is a new addition to the default driving presets, namely the Strada, Sport and Corsa



Body

Built on an ultra rigid carbon fiber monocoque chassis and further strengthened via attached aluminium frames, the new Aventador S is not only motorsport derived, it is extremely light as well. The new S is unmistakably fresh from the bullpen. At the front, its new nose and protruding splitter redirect airflow for increased aero advantage as well as for radiator cooling, while the air ducts on the side reduces aero interference from the front tyres. This feature also channels more airflow toward the auxiliary radiators.



At the rear, there's a huge black diffuser or otherwise, in carbon fiber as per customer request. This new diffuser has several vertical fins that amplify airflow to reduce drag through pressure recovery and to generate downforce.

These new aero trickery resulted in a significant addition in aero performance, equating to over 130% in improved front downforce. While its overall aero efficiency at full downforce sees an increment of 50% depending on its active rear wing position.

I wonder if anyone here knows how much can the rear tyres of these Lamborghini cost for a piece? Pirelli P-zero 335/30/20. If R35's RE070R can cost like around RM2000-RM2500 a piece, I wonder will these cost like over RM3000?

Veryon was supposedly 30k per tyre change including tyre, shipping to the shop in europe somewhere which is the only shop in the world with the tools to change the ridiculously wide tyre and actually changing it and shipping back.

A vent a door. I like the car but for 1.8m, I'm not sure I'd spent it on this bull. I guess it all depends on what it is you want from these cars eh?

Curiosity question. Looking at how much R35's price had dropped nowadays, I'm sure there people who bought the car but overwhelmed later by maintenance costs like price of tyres.

So, the same can probably happen to this car in future? Like a used Gallardo cost like RM400k nowadays but last time when they are new, they cost like RM2m. So, there might be people out there who are able to afford a RM400k car but not the maintenance of a RM2m car.

Veyron and other hypercar tyres are mostly exclusively made for that particular car itself. Probably can expect that kind of price since these are specially made products. But the tyres for this Aventador is not specially made for this car only.

The RM1.8m is price without taxes according to other sources. Can Tom verify this?

Not only the shipping cost, but because the car can run faster than the highest Y speed rated tyres so must be specially made. Y rated tyres are 300kph speed rated, the Veyron does 400 kph.

The Bugatti Veyron is a designed and developed by Volkswagen and is capable of sustaining speeds of 406km/h. For a high-speed machine such as this one, only Michelin can work that magic. Michelin Pilot Sport PAX (run flat) 245/690 R520 tyres in the front and 365/710 R540 rear tyres grace the Bugatti Veyron majestically

Only made by Michelin and special size too......lol:biggrin:

Well, just want to know about it. :biggrin: A friend once asked me how much can these 335 width tyres cost. I told him I'm not so sure. Maybe over RM3k a piece.

No matter how much prices of super duper cars drop, even after plummeting lower than 300K, it's still never a walk in the park. They have loan figures to think about, large upfront cash payment, high monthly commitment, etc etc. So no one buys these cars on a budget.

yes, 1.8M is without taxes

You have a point there. But I'm sure there are also some who bought these kind of cars from used market and own the car for a short period of time before selling it off again. Maintenance costs could be one of the factors behind the selling.

See one own financial standing loh! Cannot afford don't try to show off.....hhahahha

Like I mentioned before. my ex colleague had one 350Z, not that expensive compared to these Super cars, but than his financial standing is normal wage owner with family. By the time it came to renew Insurance, Road Tax and change tyres he sold the car. He kept roughly one year, bought time road tax still valid....lol:rofl:

Probably a lot of people never considered yearly maintenance costs when getting a car. :biggrin: Just thought about the overall price of the car. Like my friend I mentioned who wants to buy a CX-3. He just thought of monthly installment for 9 years. After I told him about service costs, tyres, roadtax, insurance only he realized about all these other costs. He never owned any car before, so he din't realize all these.

That is why most 350Z got no value nowadays. Price getting lower and lower. Good car but paying over RM4k for roadtax seems expensive. For tyres, I've seen 350Z owners going for cheaper alternatives like Achilles, Accelera, Jinyu... For budget reasons maybe.

Although Tom mentioned that no one will buy these supercars on a budget which he is correct, there might be people who can afford a car in around RM300k to RM400k mark such as C-class, 3-series, E-class or 5-series but chose to go for a used supercar in that price range. If the owner did not put maintenance into consideration beforehand, the owner might probably be overwhelmed by the maintenance costs of these supercars compared to entry level executive cars.
