Motor Authority

The Lamborghini Aventador has had several years on the market to break necks--both of passersby and of drivers engaging Corsa mode--but now it's getting an even more extreme variant: the Aventador Super Veloce, or SV.

These photos show that yes, Lamborghini can indeed take an extreme design and top it. With much more aggressive aerodynamics, a blazing red paint job, and 750 metric horsepower (hence the LP750-4 title), the Aventador SV is the latest track-honed weapon Lamborghini will offer to its patrons.

At about 50 kilograms (110 pounds) lighter than the standard Aventador, it's not just lighter, it's destined to be sharper and quicker, too. That's borne out in the numbers, hitting 62 mph in just 2.8 seconds--about a tenth quicker than the standard Aventador.

But the real proof of the Aventador SV's pudding will be in the corners, where the enhanced aero and lighter weight should allow it to post impressive lap times.

Even if the Aventador SV is outrun by more ordinary or more extreme supercars in the final tally, however, it will still be uniquely Lamborghini and undeniably head-turning.

Let's hope the buyers have whiplash insurance. They'll need it.
