A new prototypes of the Lamborghini Aventador’s long-awaited successor have been filmed on the move during a recent round of testing in Italy. With production of the Aventador recently ending, the Italian car manufacturer has turned its attention to its replacement. While the car manufacturer itself hasn’t revealed all that many details about the car just yet, we already have a good idea of what to expect. Both of the prototypes captured in this video by Varryx on YouTube appear to be equipped with their production-ready bodywork and are only covered up by a camouflage wrap and some thin sheets across most of the exterior.
The second prototype is particularly
intriguing due to its exhausts. Like almost all other Aventador successor
prototypes we’ve seen in recent months, it has exhausts exiting from high-up on
the fascia, right in between the LED taillights. What’s interesting about this
prototype is that there are four exhaust pipes but they join together, forming
two tailpipes and making for a very intriguing design. It is understood they
were used for emissions testing so the final production car won’t have
tailpipes that look anything like this.
Beyond its striking looks, we know that
Lamborghini’s new mid-engined supercar will be powered by a naturally-aspirated
V12 working alongside an electric motor and a small battery pack. It would
probably produce between 800 hp and 900 hp, ensuring that it has adequate power
to replace the Aventador while also closing the gap to Ferrari with its 818 hp
296 GTB and 986 hp SF90 Stradale.
Lamborghini is expected to unveil the new
model in March 2023 before it commences deliveries later in the year.
