Lamborghini launched the SuperVeloce specification all the way back in the 1960s, first appearing on the Miura, the nameplate that basically introduced the world to the mid-engine supercar. Dropped when the Miura was discontinued, the SV name returned nearly 30 years later when Lambo showcased the Diablo SV at the 1995 Geneva Motor Show. Since then, every range-topping Lambo has gotten an SV version. There was a Murcielago SV, and the Aventador SuperVeloce was presented at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show.
But while the SV badge has graced four different supercars as of 2015, not all of then have been offered as roadsters. The Miura was built as a coupe only (except for a one-off roadster), while the only drop-top version of the Diablo was based on the less powerful VT. The Murcielago was the first SV to lose its roof and it seems the Aventador is ready to follow suit, as a supercar sporting the body kit of the recently unveiled SV was spotted stretching its wheels with a removable top.
Updated 03/09/2015: Based on the recent spy shots and on the recently launched Aventador SV coupe version, we’ve created a rendering for the future Aventador SV Spyder version. We hope you like it!
Exterior
The supercar might be covered by a thick layer of camouflage, but there are plenty of hints that this is indeed a drop-top version of the recently unveiled Aventador SV. The first clue lies right beneath the Aventador’s pointy nose, in the form of an aggressive-looking apron that incorporates both the splitter and the massive air intakes seen on the coupe version. To find the second hint all you need to do is take a look at the rear end, which mimics the coupe’s from top to bottom. The menacing diffuser and the center-mounted exhaust system with four pipes makes the Aventador SV Roaster all but a certainty.
Of course, there are a few details that also set the drop-top apart from its coupe sibling, and I’m not just talking about the removable top. The engine hood seems different, which applies to all roadster Lamborghinis, while the large rear wing is nowhere to be found. It’s not yet clear whether the SV Roadster will be wingless or not, but don’t expect it to receive the massive wing seen on the coupe. It just wouldn’t look right and Lambo is aware of that.
Interior
Don’t expect much to change inside the cockpit, but look for a pair of nicely sculpted rollover hoops behind the seats and the same amount of carbon-fiber, leather and Alcantara. The roadster will also have the exclusive SV instrument cluster with yellow background, as well as the six available color combinations and the new, Lambo-exclusive "Carbon Skin" material.
Drivetrain
The Aventador SV Roadster will probably have the same 6.5-liter V-12 engine, which produces 740 horsepower at 8,400 rpm and 509 pound-feet of torque at 5,500 rpm. While the SV coupe is 110 pounds lighter than its standard sibling at 3,362 pounds, expect the roadster to weigh a bit more due to the extra reinforcement required by most drop-tops.
The SV’s power travels to all four wheels through a seven-speed, ISR automated-manual transmission and Lambo’s permanent AWD system. The 0-to-62 sprint should be similar to the coupe’s: 2.8 seconds. Top speed is a manufacturer’s claimed "over 217 mph".
The Aventador SV has three driver settings.
