History of Lamborghini AVENTADOR LP 720-4 50° Anniversario

In celebration of its fiftieth birthday and towards the  backdrop of the Shanghai Auto Present, Automobili Lamborghini is presenting a very special super sports automobile with unique gear and technology. The Lamborghini Aventador LP 720-4 50° Anniversario is a limited and numbered sequence of a hundred items worldwide. Every unit has a Cast Composite® badge with the 50° logo and a serial number.
With its output elevated to 720 hp, its new performance-oriented entrance and rear design, the special paintwork and unique interior trim, this Aventador is among the most unique models ever produced within the history of Lamborghini.

The Aventador LP 720-4 50° Anniversario represents a brand new spotlight of this globally profitable mannequin vary with carbon-fiber monocoque, twelve-cylinder engine and everlasting all-wheel drive. With its output of 720 hp, the 6.5-liter twelve-cylinder within the Aventador LP 720-4 50° Anniversario is 20 hp extra highly effective than the current V12 within the Aventador LP seven-hundred-4. This is due to a new particular engine calibration. With its extraordinarily quick-shifting ISR transmission, the anniversary model accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and reaches a top velocity of 350 km/h.

The front and rear fascias of the 50° Anniversario model have been redesigned and the aerodynamics further optimized. The front air intakes and the aerodynamic splitter have been enlarged and extended, and small flaps set into the sides. The rear end is completely new and features an enlarged diffuser and expansive meshwork that further improves engine-compartment ventilation. Overall, handling stability at extreme speeds has been optimized without impacting drag characteristics due to an increase of more than 50% in the aerodynamic efficiency compared to the Aventador LP 700-4.
The newly developed paintwork on the 50° Anniversario edition, Giallo Maggio (May yellow) is a tribute to the most preferred color chosen by Lamborghini costumers since the Miura and references the founding of Automobili Lamborghini in May 1963. The exclusive Giallo Maggio is an all-new color with a particularly intense glitter effect and will only be available on this edition. The structure of this paintwork in sparkling yellow includes a layer of transparent and highly reflective particles, that make the Aventador truly glisten, especially in the sun. The front and rear, as well as the sills, have a two-tone design in Giallo Maggio and matte black that emphasize the Aventador’s streamlined shape. Matching perfectly are the wheels painted in high-gloss black. Naturally, the Aventador LP 720-4 50° Anniversario can also be ordered in every imaginable color through the Ad Personam individualization program.
The interior of the Aventador LP 720-4 50° Anniversario is upholstered in an extremely fine, natural, semi-aniline leather. This leather, specifically developed for the Aventador 50° Anniversario, is worked through a particular tanning and coloring process that accentuates the full grain, natural look and smoothness of the leather.

The colors offered are inspired by Lamborghini’s home in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna. Thus, Nero Ade (black) is combined with Terra Emilia, a shade of brown evoking the earth of the region, a color that evaluates the exclusive positioning of this model. An alternative color is Giallo Quercus, a yellow color matching the exterior and stressing the vehicle’s sporty nature, is named for the yellow oak tree in the Sant’Agata Bolognese coat of arms. Featured in both versions is the exclusive Q-Citura stitch, a diamond pattern introduced especially for this celebratory model that highlights the Italian craftsmanship found in the interior of the Aventador 50° Anniversario.
