Overview

The 2017 Lamborghini Aventador SV Coupe makes for an excellent contender in the midsize coupe. With just one trim on offer, the 2017 Lamborghini Aventador SV has a base MSRP of $490,700, competing directly with the Ferrari F12 TDF Coupe and the Aston Martin DB11 AMR Coupe. Only a 6.5L V12 engine is offered, mated to a 7 Speed ISR automatic transmission. Together, they produce 750 horsepower and 507 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 2.8 seconds, the Aventador SV maintains a combined fuel economy of 13 MPG. Lamborghini offers the Aventador SV in 13 stunning colors, with the Blue Hera being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

The Lamborghini Aventador SVJ is a pure track-bred, stripped-out version of the Aventador, built for those who want an ultimate weapon to rip the tracks apart with its performance and shrieking exhaust note. The features like magnetorheological dampers, downforce-generating front, and rear fascia, as well as a massive rear diffuser and wing, and tweaked engine output, set it apart from the regular Aventador. Moreover, it is 100 pounds less than the standard Aventador in terms of weight.
