Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 Roadster 2014The 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 Roadster's design is the result of a careful study into the best way of combining performance, elegant style, ease of use and a driving experience that excites all five senses.
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. In just a few seconds the Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster can be admired in all its luxurious beauty.
Right at first glance, it's noticeable that the engine hood on the Roadster differs from the hood on the coupé 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.
These numbers, combined with a drive train featuring a centrally located, 6.5 liter aspirated V12 generating 700 hp, an ISR 7-speed gearbox and push-rod suspension make the new Aventador Roadster a unique super sports car with no direct competition.
Of course the Roadster's V12 also includes a
cylinder deactivation system when the engine is working at partial capacity, while the innovative, instant
Stop & Start system includes high-performance capacitors known as supercaps to awaken the engine.
This is an absolute first in the super sports car segment.
