Lamborghini has taken the cover off the all new Aventador S Roadster at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. Now, the Supercar has landed on Indian shores at a whopping price of Rs. 5.79 crore (ex-showroom, India). Just to remind, the car is an open-top version of the Aventador S coupe which was launched earlier this year.

The Aventador S Roadster comes with revamped aesthetics such as revised front bumper with integrated splitter, two-panel carbon fibre hardtop with each weighing 6 kg, new alloy wheels, electric rear window to reduce the noise when the roof is down. The new model also sports hexagonal exhaust, tweaked rear fascia, optional High gloss black and shiny visible carbon fibre trim while brand’s Ad Personam programme adds icing on the cake.
According to Lamborghini, the roadster is 50 percent more efficient in high downforce while front downforce has been increased by 130 percent and it results in 400 percent efficiency in low drag mode over the outgoing model.
The beast is powered by a 6.5-litre V12 engine that makes massive 730bhp power@8400rpm and 690Nm of torque@5500rpm. It claims to accelerate from 0-100km/hr in just 3 seconds with a top speed of 350km/hr. In addition, it comes with active front and rear suspension with horizontal springs and dampers. For braking, it has carbon ceramic disc brakes all around.
Like the Coupe, the Roadster also features Lamborghini Dynamic steering (LDS), 4-wheel steering system, 4-driving modes-Strada, Corsa, Sport and EGO. The EGO mode allows the driver to change the drivetrain settings, traction control and suspension suiting his driving skill.
