One of the nice things about Lamborghini is that they are still making new cars. A lot of the cars I talked about on this eight week journey have been old cars that aren’t in production anymore. Lamborghini is still making new cars and don’t look like they’re stopping any time soon.
Above is the Lamborghini Aventador. It has a very powerful 6.5L V12 and can crank out 690 hp. The Aventador is one of the more top end cars for Lamborghini and has a starting price of $415,000 which is A LOT of money. This car is meant to take over the Murciélago which is a decade older. They like every other car company have to upgrade their cars and that is why the Aventador was born. It has a 0-60 in 2.9 seconds which is like a quick yawn and it’s gone. This car has an engine sound that will put almost any car to shame and is scary loud.
Like the Aventador the Huracán was also created to replace an older model, the Gallardo. It uses the same V10 engine from the Gallardo but has a more aerodynamic body and just better overall performance. Surprisingly the Huracán has a faster 0-60 than an Aventador. The reason that this is surprising is the price of the two. The Huracán is only $250,000 which is around $150,000 cheaper than the Aventador. It has a 0-60 in 2.5 seconds which shaves .4 seconds off the Aventadors. The Huracán is a very sporty car for the price and might as well be more money than the Aventador. I usually don’t compare two cars from the same brand but, the Aventador is way too overpriced for what it is. When you buy the car you are practically just buying the V12 engine which isn’t worth it. In the end I assume everyone has come to a conclusion about what the best car brand is but personally I think it is Pagani.
