    When Lamborghini does something expect the whole world to have a good look at it. Many companies have a rather subtle media launch but not Lambo as its the bad boy of the supercar world. So for its new Aventador Roadster media launch the company decided that five roadsters will be there at the Miami airport having a race with a jet aircraft. Rather apt we say.
    These new bulls had a race with a passenger jet and the Aventador roadster which clocked 210 mph outgunned the jet which has a take of speed of 150 mph. After this there was a photo shoot and everyone was very happy. Of course Lamborghini was quick to point out there was not impact to flights arrivals and departures. Though we have talked about this new Lambo recently as it was launched in India the stats beg to be repeated.

    The new Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster can immediately be recognized by the unique profile of its upper area, which extends along newly designed geometric lines from the removable roof to the engine hood. The two-piece roof is made entirely from carbon fiber using various technologies such as RTM and Forged Composite.
    These technologies guarantee maximum aesthetic performance and stiffness although each component is extremely light, weighing less than 6 kg. These two parts are removable, easy to handle, and being lightweight and simple to attach, can be stored in the front luggage compartment. The rear pillar has been redesigned to offer total support for the removable roof, accommodate an automatic protection system for passengers, and provide the engine compartment with ample ventilation.

    Right at first glance, it’s noticeable that the engine hood on the Roadster differs from the hood on the coupe because of its central “spinal column” with two pairs of hexagonal windows connected at the sides as if they were hyper-tech armor plates. Their purpose is to cool the engine, drain off rain water properly and, of course, allow the beauty of the V12 power unit to be admired. However all that aside, its the stunning looks that is the wow factor. The body of the new Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster sports a two-tone finish, as the windshield pillar, the two roof sections and the rear window area up to the “fins” are painted in gloss black.

    Even the interior has a new look. The use of leather called Sabbia Nefertem. The Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster also features new Dione 20?/21? rims and are crafted in light forged aluminum, they lower the weight of the vehicle by 10 Kg as compared with the standard set of rims. The hugely fast 6.5 liter aspirated V12 with 700 bhp and does 0 to 100 Km/h in only 3 seconds. Plus it has a top speed of 350 km/h. Rivals are few and perhaps when it comes to pure looks and presence there is nothing out there to match this big Lambo.
