Lamborghini has launched the Aventador S in India at Rs 5.01 crore. The new Lamborghini Aventador S is powered by a 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 engine that generates 730bhp of power, a rise of 41 bhp over its predecessor. The powerful engine comes mated to a seven-speed ISR (Independent Shifting Rods) gearbox. The vehicle claims top speed of 349kmph and does a 0-100kmph sprint in just 2.9 seconds. The Aventador S also gets three drive modes Strada (street driving), Sport and Corsa (race performance). The Aventador S is visually distinguishable from the Aventador it replaces courtesy its restyled nose and tweaked tail. Improved aerodynamics and engine cooling were central to the redesign. Lamborghini claims, downforce at the front is up by 130 percent while the active rear wing that has three positions enhances downforce by as much as 400 percent vis-à-vis the old Aventador. The automaker claims that the vehicle also offers the best handling even under the most slippery conditions by reducing the drag by 400 per cent. The hypercar also sees the inclusion of four-wheel steering which helps improve agility and high-speed stability, along with better low-speed manoeuvrability.
