On December 19th, Lamborghini introduced the newest reimagining of its iconic S series. Through the years, legendary Lambo models like the Miura, Islero, Countach and Urraco have had their own S models. Now, a new member joins the family: the 2017 Lamborghini Aventador S in North Miami Beach FL. A true marvel among supercars, we are truly proud to give you a bit of information about it.
For starters, we thought we’d talk about the design changes. The Aventador’s nose was redesigned for the S model, offering a bigger splitter on the front and an additional pair of air ducts within the front bumper. On the back end, a black rear diffuser was introduced featuring fins and three separate single-exit exhaust tips. These enhancements alone lead to an increase in frontal downforce of 130%.
Now to the meat and potatoes of the model. Powered by a 6.5L V12 engine, the Aventador S generates roughly 730 horsepower alongside 507 pound-feet of torque. This leads to a maximum speed of 217 miles per hour, a 0 to 62 mile per hour time of 2.9 seconds, a 0-124 mph time of 8.8 seconds and an incredible 0-186 mph time of 24.2 seconds. Plus, it has the ability to break from 62 mph in just 31 meters. Those are some incredible figures.
