A select group of customers were on hand to see the new bull-buster, and, based on what’s been seen, the Aventador looks to have taken a lot of its styling cues from the Lamborghini Reventon. How much of it is Revenston-inspired still remains to be seen. What we do know is that the ‘Aventador’ name will stick around given the lengths Lamborghini went through in obtaining a trademark for the name. So is it safe to say that the Murcielago successor will officially be named the Aventador? We’ll put our eggs in that basket and say yes.
UPDATE 12/14/10: We were doing our usual Facebook surfing earlier today when we chanced upon the fan page of the Lamborghini Club of Los Angeles. To our surprise, we came across a photo of the Aventador LP700-4 that the page says is the "ONLY real front end photo of the Lamborghini Aventador released so far". Check out the photo in the gallery; it won’t be too hard to find.
Updated 01/10/2010: Before the car’s official debut at the Geneva Motor Show, Maurizio Reggiani, Lamborghini’s r&d chief has offered new details regarding the Aventador. According to him, the vehicle will retain its V-12, all-wheel-drive layout, but the body and chassis will be entire constructed from carbon fiber. In collaboration with Boeing Corp. and the University of Washington, Lamborghini created a carbon fiber tub and body that boasts stiffness calculated as 35,000 Newton-meters per degree of deflection. By comparison of stiffness, the Koenigsegg CCR is 28,100 Nm, the Ferrari F50 is 34,600 Nm, and the existing Murcielago is 20,000 Nm. He also announced that the Aventador will use a new seven-speed automatic that, when in Corsa mode, allows shifting in 50 milliseconds. By contrast, a typical Formula 1 racecar shifts in 40 ms.
