Lamborghini have this week unveiled their brand new flagship model at the world renowned Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland, and the Italian car makers haven’t disappointed with their latest offering.

The Lamborghini Aventador replaces the Murcielago model which was a previous best seller for the luxury car maker. The new Lamborghini model really packs a punch with a 6.5 litre V12 engine capable of achieving 0-62 mph in just 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph.

The interior of the Aventador features two TFT-LCD touch screens, one of which displays the car’s many functions, while the other screen displays the Lamborghini’s satellite navigation system and in-car computer. The car also features a 7-speed gearbox which powers all 4 wheels.

The new performance car sits just over a metre high, and also features upward opening doors so as to allow passengers in the Aventador the opportunity to make an attention-grabbing entrance.

The top name car maker announced at the grand unveiling of the Aventador car at the Geneva Motor Show that the first batch of cars will roll off the assembly line in time for summer. However these super cars don’t come cheap, with the starting price for a new Lamborghini Aventador standing at £242,000.
