Interior: Sacrifices have been made at the altar of performance here: In standard form, the Aventador SV has no infotainment system, manual seat controls and an unforgiving shell of a seat constructed of carbon fibre. Performance: The performance of the Aventador SV is staggering and the measures designed to make the car stick to the ground better have served to create a faster, more user-friendly and all-around better supercar. Technology: nose to tail and inside out, this Lamborghini is at the pinnacle of technological achievement. The thing is replete with lightweight carbon fibre, from the chassis on outward. The suspension system is derived directly from F1 racing. The engine is pushing the limits of naturally aspirated power generation. Cargo: Cargo? In a Lamborghini? Next question. The Verdict 9.0 Simply and unexpectedly, this Aventador is arguably one of the best supercars of all time. The writer was a guest of the auto maker. Content was not subject to approval.
