Lamborghini released images of its new flagship, the Aventador, yesterday, and has released a video of the new car today. The commentary from Lamborghini president and CEO Stephan Winkelmann is in German—suiting the company’s German owners—but you do get to see the aggressive new car in action even if you don’t understand the language.
Débuting at the Salon de Genève, it follows the pattern of the 1970s Countach with its scissor doors, and has more geometric, angular styling to it than the outgoing Murciélago model.
Lamborghini claims it is ‘redefining the very pinnacle of the world super-sports car market—brutal power, outstanding lightweight engineering and phenomenal handling precision are combined with peerless design and the very finest equipment to deliver an unparallelled driving experience.’
Head to 2’22” in the video to get to the footage of the launch in Genève.
Deliveries begin in the late summer and the company promises additional videos.
