Lamborghini Aventador J Revealed
Lamborghini Aventador J Revealed-April 2024
2023-12-14 EST 02:30:54

The incredible Lamborghini Aventador J was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show and is truly a one of a kind vehicle. The Aventador J is fully road legal, although it’s possibly not the most practical vehicle and has been described more as “art”. Based on the Aventador, the “J” from its name comes from the rules of FIA world motorsport, where “appendix J” defines the technical specification of race cars in various classes.

Lamborghini Aventador J is one of a kind

The engine is taken from the Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4, which is a 12 cylinder 6.5 litre engine that produces 515 kW (700hp). It is permanent all-wheel drive, along with pushrod suspension which results in awesome power and exceptional handling.

It was important for Lamborghini to ensure the car was as light-weight as possible, which meant there had to be changes in the design. Weight reduction was made easier with this model, as there is no roof, no large windscreen, no aircon and no navigation system. Along with carbon fibre construction, the Lamborghini Aventador J weighs in at 1575kg.

The Aventador J comes with a number of interesting features, including the rear-view mirror which is more like a periscope. With no windscreen, just 2 small wind deflectors, driving in this car will require the appropriate headgear. The front of the car comes with a distinctive carbon fibre air scoop, with central fixing braces and upward tilting winglets on the outer edges. The wheels are rather impressive as well; the 20 inch rims at the front and 21 inch rims at the rear have an additional carbon fibre insert that functions like a small fan for optimum brake ventilation.

Unfortunately the Lamborghini Aventador J is not even a prototype, only one was made and it has already been sold; for over 2.1 million euros.
