Highlights

    When Lamborghini launched the Aventador SV, we all thought that it was the end of the line but when we asked Stephan Winkelmann about this, he smiled and said that there was in fact more in store and well, here it is. Lamborghini has unveiled the 2016 Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce Roadster and it earns the honour of being the first series-produced Lamborghini convertible to wear the coveted Superveloce emblem.

    Lamborghini had revealed the Aventador Superveloce Coupe at the 2015 Geneva Motor show and if you thought that one looked menacing, well the Roadster is no different. The SV Roadster gets the same body kit as the Coupe which is crafted largely out of carbon fibre. The add-ons are designed to provide more downforce at high speeds, minimize drag, and direct more cooling air to the engine bay.

    Under the hood of the Roadster, there's a naturally-aspirated 6.5-litre V12 engine that generates 750bhp. The car is built entirely by hand at the company's plant in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. The Superveloce Roadster does the 0-100km/h sprint in just 2.9 seconds while top speed is rated at close to 350km/h. So it stays true its name, for Superveloce does stand for 'super fast'

    A seven-speed ISR transmission sends power to all four wheels thanks to the Haldex Generation IV four-wheel drive system. With no roof, the SV Roadster has lost some weight and is now 49 kg lighter which shows the improved performance. Just 500 will be made and they're now up for grabs. So, if you have deep pockets, there's nothing like an open top Superveloce.
