Lamborghini Reventon Roadster review



        Lamborghini presents the ultimate driving machine among open-top two-seaters - the Reventón Roadster is a sports car of breathtaking fascination, menacing power and uncompromising performance. The 6.5 liter twelve-cylinder generates 493 kW, catapulting the Roadster from 0 to 100 Km/h in 3.4 seconds and onwards to a top speed of 330 KM/h. The open top Reventón is not only one of the fastest, but also one of the most exclusive cars in the world - Lamborghini has limited the series.


           The powerful arrowhead form at the front, the mighty air intakes pulled way forward, the broad side skirts, the upwards opening scissor doors and the rear end with its menacing edges  the Roadster is clad in a design of maximum functionality and spectacular clarity. Details set stylish accents, such as headlamps featuring bi-xenon units with LEDs forming the daytime running lights and indicators. The rear lamps are also equipped with LEDs.


           The V12 engine is a masterpiece of Italian engineering. Two chains drive its four camshafts that, in turn, operate the 48 valves. Together with the three phase adjustable intake manifold, the variable valve timing delivers a meaty torque build up. Dry sump lubrication ensures that the Hi-Tech power unit has a constant supply of oil, even under heavy lateral acceleration. The absence of the oil sump means a low mounting position - benefitting the car's outstanding handling characteristics.
