Overview
In a world that has become heavily reliant on technology, the 2021 Lamborghini Aventador takes a more nostalgic look at things. The large Lambo is a triumphant tribute to supercars of old, with its flamboyant facade and vociferous V-12. The 730-plus-hp 6.5-liter engine that's mounted behind the driver is naturally aspirated and crowd pleasing, but the Aventador's automated-manual transmission can be clunky in traffic.
Interior
For 2021, the Aventador receives very minor updates. The S can now be equipped with forged Leirion wheels as well as an Arancio Dac center wheel lock. The SVJ now comes with a glovebox, and you can order the badge in exposed carbon fiber. The price of the 2021 Lamborghini Aventador starts at $421,321 and goes up to $577,461 depending on the trim and options.
Exterior
We drove this brutally powerful monster and its roofless counterpart and experienced their tremendous acceleration and kidney-crushing cornering forces. The hefty machines heaved through the corners, but their incredible grip and four-wheel-steering systems helped them change direction on a dime. We have also driven the Aventador S and Aventador S roadster and found the latter's top-down ability makes it the better car for listening to the V-12's thrilling timbre.
Specs
In typical Lamborghini fashion, every Aventador supports a set of scissor doors that swing open. The low-slung interior is showing its age, but it can be fitted with a variety of premium materials and personalized options. The cabin won't hold many small items, and luggage space is limited. The dashboard features a digital gauge cluster that changes its layout whenever you select a new drive mode—Strada, Sport, and Corsa; Ego mode allows you to personalize the settings for powertrain, steering, and suspension.
