What can you say about a supercar that's so exciting that the start button is shielded by a red switch cover? Meet the new Lamborghini flagship, the Aventador LP 700-4, about to be displayed at the Geneva Motor Show tomorrow.
The new Lamborghini presents a sinister image
It has a unique carbon-fiber body and a 12-cylinder, 6.5-liter engine that develops 700 horsepower. Yet the car weighs only 3,472 pounds. Top speed is expected to be 217 miles per hour with zero to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds. Even with that blazing speed -- an 8% increase in the power -- fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are expected to be cut 20% over the previous model.
A new transmission decreases the shifting time, only adding to its fast take off. The car's name means the bravest of bulls. And yes, because it's a Lambo, the doors open upward.
