Need a lighter, more powerful exotic bull? The Lamborghini Aventador SV, bowing at the 2015 Geneva Auto Show, just might be the answer.

The Aventador SV is 110 lbs lighter than the standard Aventador, and is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 pushing 750 horsepower and 509 lb-ft of torque to all corners through a seven-speed single-clutch automated manual connected to the SV’s Haldex permanent AWD system. Nil to 62 mph comes at 2.8 seconds, and tops out at 217 mph.

Aggressive aero and adjustable rear wing keep the bull close to the ground, while adaptive suspension individually adjusts wheel damping during cornering. Other features include electromechanical dynamic steering, carbon fiber seats and trim, and TFT gauge cluster.

While no pricing in U.S. dollars has been announced, Europeans can expect to spend €327,000 ($368,000 USD) before VAT, with deliveries beginning in the spring.

There's nothing sexier on wheels than a Lamborghini. I never cared for Ferrari.

  Lamborghini sells show pieces. Ferrari sells show pieces with technology allegedly derived from its race cars. From that perspective, Lamborghini cars are more honest about being show pieces.

SCE to AUX My son cross-shopped the RAV4 and Model Y, then bought the Y. To their surprise, they hated the RAV4.

David Murilee Martin, These Toyota Vans were absolute garbage. As the labor even basic service cost 400% as much as servicing a VW Vanagon or American minivan. A skilled Toyota tech would take about 2.5 hours just to change the air cleaner. Also they also broke often, as they overheated and warped the engine and boiled the automatic transmission...
Marcr My wife and I mostly work from home (or use public transit), the kid is grown, and we no longer do road trips of more than 150 miles or so. Our one car mostly gets used for local errands and the occasional airport pickup. The first non-Tesla, non-Mini, non-Fiat, non-Kia/Hyundai, non-GM (I do have my biases) small fun-to-drive hatchback EV with 200+ mile range, instrument display behind the wheel where it belongs and actual knobs for oft-used functions for under $35K will get our money. What we really want is a proper 21st century equivalent of the original Honda Civic. The Volvo EX30 is close and may end up being the compromise choice.
