Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4

The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 is a mid-engined flagship supercar by Lamborghini produced from 2011 to 2016. It is the successor to the Lamborghini Murciélago flagship supercar last introduced in 2001.
== Description ==
In keeping with Lamborghini tradition, the Lamborghini Aventador is named after a fighting bull. Aventador (pronounced: [aβentaˈðoɾ]) was a bull that fought particularly valiantly in the bullring of Zaragoza, Spain in 1993. The bull which the Aventador is named after earned the Trofeo de la Peña La Madroñera for its courage in the arena. The Aventador car's shape borrows heavily from the Reventón and Estoque cars.
The Aventador uses a new in-house-developed V12 engine codenamed L539. The fourth in-house engine and second V12 designed by Lamborghini, as well as the first all-new V12 since the 3.5 L engine in the 350GT, the L539 is naturally aspirated, is fed with multi-point fuel injection, and displaces 6.5 L (6,498 cc; 396.5 cu in). Specifically for the Aventador LP 700-4, the V12 generates at 8,250 rpm and at 5,500 rpm. It has a power-to-displacement ratio of per liter.
The Aventador's shape, as previously mentioned, draws strong inspiration from the Reventón and Estoque concept cars, while overall having a similar wedge shape to the Lamborghini Murciélago it replaced. The rear air intake slats are now in a different shape, and the headlights are a shorter version of those of the Estoque. Lamborghini claims a dry weight of , although the real car is much heavier, especially with all fluids and a full tank. European spec models have a weight of ,Motor Trend - First Test: 2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 European Spec while US spec models are much heavier, with .Car & Driver - 2012-Lamborghini-Aventador-LP700-4-specs (PDF) This results in a power-to-weight ratio of per tonne or per horsepower.
Power is delivered to all four wheels via a seven-speed single-clutch semi-automatic transmission built by Graziano Transmissioni, which achieves gear shifts in 50 milliseconds despite being single-clutch. The new, electronically controlled AWD system is developed and supplied by Haldex Traction, offering traction and handling capabilities based on their fourth-generation technology.
The Aventador LP 700-4 is capable of 0 - 60 mph (97 km/h) in 3 seconds, 0 - 100 mph (161 km/h) in 6.4 seconds, and a quarter mile (402 m) time of 10.9 seconds at 133 mph (214 km/h). Lamborghini claims a top speed of at least 217 mph (350 km/h) for all Aventador variants, except the Veneno with 221 mph (356 km/h). Sport Auto magazine measured a top speed of 230 mph (370 km/h) in 2012YouTube - Aventador TOP SPEED 370 km/h & Hockenheim Lap Test sport auto New Lamborghini LP 700-4.
Production was initially planned to be limited to 4,000 units, although Lamborghini eventually built its 5,000th Aventador in 2016. The base price of the Aventador starts at US$394,000.

=== Performance ===
====v6.8====
With its rank reshuffle, the Lamborghini Aventador now has improved acceleration and nitro efficiency. Although slower than the Cadillac 16 Concept in acceleration, the Cadillac has ungainly handling and larger vehicle size, making it a risky choice for narrow track sections.
Overall, the Aventador is an excellent alternative to the BMW M4 GTS, Ferrari Monza SP1, and Ferrari 812 Superfast.
====v1.9====
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 is a car that combines performance traits from the 9FF GT9 VMAX and Peugeot Onyx: fast acceleration, responsive handling and drifting, high top speed, and low nitro efficiency.
The Aventador's closest rivals are the Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe Touring Car 2014, Peugeot Onyx, and Koenigsegg One:1.
The Aventador LP 700-4's acceleration is inversely proportional to its speed at speeds 62 mph (100 km/h) below its maximum total speed – its acceleration decreases as its speed increases, to the point it reaches top speed in a noticeable amount of time after the Ferrari 330 P4, TVR Sagaris Special Edition, McLaren Mercedes MP4-25, Rezvani Beast Alpha, and Audi R8 e-tron Special Edition. It still posts quick acceleration as mentioned previously, though, with the ability to hit total speed at MAX+PRO with a Tuning Kit in 3.6 seconds. The LP 700-4 has a maximum total speed of 297.3 mph (478.7 km/h), although the Ferrari 330 P4 can pull off the same total speed at a lower rank but with better overall performance.
The LP 700-4's biggest disadvantage is its low nitro efficiency; this may perhaps be a performance trait based on the previous games' version of the Aventador. Even at MAX+PRO, this makes its driver mostly incapable of taking advantage of the faster boost a Level 3 Nitro provides because of how quickly the nitro depletes, requiring the use of a more-efficient Perfect Nitro that otherwise provides the same boost of speed as a Level 3 nitro.
In fact, if not for its abysmal nitro duration, the Aventador LP 700-4 would be nearly identical to the McLaren 675LT and 9FF GT9 VMAX in terms of performance.
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4's handling, while not bad by any means, is not the best in its class, although the Aventador LP 700-4 does have a somewhat sharp drifting radius that helps it clear difficult corners without too much trouble. The car, weighing in the game, does have an above-average steering capacity, enough to handle the S-bend curves of The Great Wall.
=== Usage ===
==== Events ====
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 has no use whatsoever in most Time-Limited Events thanks to being superseded by the McLaren 675LT and later cars like the aforementioned McLaren Mercedes MP4-25 and BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage. On the other hand, there are some events that may feature mid-high-end Class A cars, and the Aventador is always featured as the dominant car in those events even though the Sbarro Alcador and Chevrolet Corvette C3 have a higher rank and slightly higher total speed; this is due to the Alcador and C3 having much worse overall stats than the Aventador, especially in acceleration and handling. The Aventador is still the best car available for Lamborghini events, though, provided the player does not have all the necessary Blueprints for the Lamborghini Egoista and Lamborghini Aventador SV, although players can obtain free BPs for the Egoista by watching ads, as well as lacking the Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4 due to the extreme difficulty of its R&D. While the 330 P4 is superior, it had a problem of being a tokens-only car until March 23, 2018, and it would be better for the player to save tokens and cards for better cars like the Aston Martin Vulcan or Apollo Intensa Emozione (if the player obtained the latter through its R&D event but doesn't have enough free upgrades to max out the latter without spending as many tokens as possible).
====Multiplayer====
In Multiplayer races, the Aventador LP 700-4 struggles to stand out against faster cars, especially the Apollo IE, Audi R8 e-tron SE, AM Vulcan, 2018 McLaren X2, and even the and lower-ranked Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe Touring Car 2014, due to its own limitations – it would require an Extra Tank to keep up in most events, and even then, the player would have to do no mistakes to avoid ending with an empty tank, especially on tracks like Tokyo or Patagonia. Even the highest MP-friendly upgrade configuration, 1504 5152 with a rank of A1669 and a total speed of 290 mph (467 km/h), does not allow the Aventador LP 700-4 to compete as effectively as higher-end cars. In the same case, an upgrade configuration of 0403 2051, which gives a rank of A1599 and a total speed of 274 mph (442 km/h), does not have the same level of competitiveness as even the Lotus Evora Sport 410, which can reach 282 mph (454 km/h) at a rank of B1598 with an upgrade configuration of 0505 5555.

The Aventador LP 700-4 was featured in the Enduro Double Down events for the Weber Faster One and Zenvo ST1. For more information, see these EDD pages for the Weber and Zenvo.

== Asphalt 7: Heat==
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 appears as a Tier 7 car. It requires 115 stars to be unlocked and requires to be bought. However, it can be lent for .
Much like its future appearances, the Aventador is heavily focused in acceleration at the expense of everything else; while the Aventador has good launch and has among the best acceleration out of any car in the game when fully upgraded, it only has average handling and drifting radius, below average nitro efficiency, and the lowest total speed tier compared to the rest of Tier 7. Compared to the RUF RT 12 S, the Tier 7 starter car, the Aventador has the same total speed, better launch and acceleration, and worse top speed. Compared to the Ferrari 288 GTO, the Aventador has worse launch, similar acceleration, and slightly lower total speeds.
The Aventador can be described as one of the worst cars in its Tier; with it having the slowest total speed in its tier, slower than the Ferrari 288 GTO and RUF CTR 3, the Aventador cannot capitalize on its superior acceleration to beat faster threats. Its handling and drifting radius is additionally undermined by its large hit-box, as it is larger and wider than most cars in the game, making it ponderous to drive in narrow or sharp corners. While the Aventador can be useful in Career Mode early on thanks to its strong acceleration, it has no use in Multiplayer, as its speed tier is too low to compete with any other Tier 7 car despite being able to outrun all of them, except the 288 GTO, at the start of a race; the Aventador's total speed isn't even high enough to allow it to hold the lead on shorter tracks where it excels most. The Aventador thus is not recommended for purchase; despite possessing noteworthy acceleration, its low total speed means that any other Tier 7 car, with the possible exceptions of the RT 12 S and the 288 GTO, can easily beat it. As Tier 7 is the last tier unlocked in both Career and Multiplayer, and with the impending unlocks of significantly better vehicles at this point, it is a generally a better option to rent late-game Tier 7 cars, such as the RUF CTR 3 or the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport, with significantly better potential performance, than to purchase and upgrade the Aventador.
== Asphalt Injection==
The Lamborghini Aventador appears in Asphalt Injection as a high-end Class S car. Its main rivals are the Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SV, Ferrari Enzo Ferrari, and RUF RT 12 S. Oddly enough, it launches slower than the Ferrari Enzo Ferrari despite having a quicker acceleration rating.
