![]() Together with other advancements in weight reductions, Lamborghini have managed to keep the total weight similar to the Aventador SVJ. It is 188 kilos lighter than the Aventador's monococque. However, the successor to the Aventador will have an extended carbon monocoque front to back making it the first car in the world with this feature. This comes at a cost though, roughly 250 kilograms worth of extra weight. The battery pack will be one solid unit, nicely packaged and set under the central tunnel. With the help of electrics it is expected to produce 1050 horsepower at peak value. Two on the front axle, and one on the completely redesigned gearbox. There will also be electric assistance to the internal combustion engine, with not two but three electric motors. The engine will be all-aluminium, providing significant weight reduction. The new bull will have a 6.5 litre V-12 pushing over 800 horsepower. The engine is said to be completely new, as was expected. The heritage is astounding, the iconic Aventador has been around for almost 12 years now. There is plenty of chatter about this greatly anticipated car. It was so unbelievably VIP, that we were not invited.ĭetails about the new car have reached us anyway. Lamborghini will unveil the LB744 in "a few weeks.Just a few hours ago the Lamborghini Aventador successor was shown during a VIP event in Sant'Agata. This layout delivers through-the-road all-wheel-drive, meaning that there's no mechanical connection between the front and rear axles. The system's total output checks in at 1,001 horsepower. ![]() Power for the LB744 comes from a gasoline-electric plug-in hybrid drivetrain that consists of a new, 6.5-liter V12 engine located directly behind the passenger compartment, an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission mounted transversally behind the engine, a small electric motor integrated into the transmission, two electric motors on the front axle (one per wheel), and a 3.8-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack housed in what was previously the transmission tunnel. Here again, this layout saves weight by reducing the number of parts that need to come together to assemble the car. It incorporates a pair of hollow castings that the rear suspension system's shock towers and the powertrain's suspension system are integrated into. ![]() Out back, the structure that the engine, the transmission, and parts of the hybrid system are mounted on is built with high-strength aluminum alloys. Switching to a composite structure unlocks many advantages: It's 20% lighter than the Aventador's front structure, and it helps make the overall monofuselage 10% lighter than the Aventador's chassis. While the now-retired Aventador featured a carbon-fiber monocoque as well, its front structure was made with aluminum. Lamborghini built the LB744 around a new chassis called a "monofuselage" that consists of a carbon-fiber monocoque and a front structure made with Forged Composites, an innovative material the company has used since 2008. ![]() We still don't know what the model (which is called LB744 internally) looks like, but the firm revealed one way it kept the hybrid system's weight in check. Earlier in March 2023, Lamborghini detailed the gasoline-electric hybrid drivetrain that will power the Aventador's successor.
