Starting its production run in 2011, the Aventador has been Lamborghini’s top-tier V12 model, since its predecessor the Murciélago. The Aventador was the company’s first new high-performance supercar in over a decade since it was launched in 2011. With a sleek geometric pattern, its design put Lamborghini at the forefront of the supercar market. Over the decade, there have been numerous variations of the Aventador, including the S, SV, and the most recent SVJ.
The SVJ has been equipped with a massive 6.5-liter, mid-mounted, and naturally-aspirated V12 engine that pumps out 730 horsepower and 509 pounds-feet of torque. It can propel the car from 0-60 miles per hour in just 2.6 seconds. With a figure of only 3,615 pounds, its build makes it the ultimate track car. Lamborghini’s advanced Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva system also provides additional downforce, which increases traction and keeps the car glued to the ground at 219 miles per hour.
As rumors prove to be true that the SVJ will be Lamborghini’s last naturally-aspirated V12 supercar, the vehicle’s demand has risen significantly. Though the Aventador SVJ’s base price starts at $421,321, it is worth over half a million dollars well-optioned. The 2021 Aventador SVJ is incredibly expensive and far from subtle, but it’s an iconic conclusion to a soon-to-be-extinct breed of old-school supercars.
