Mansory Carbonado based on Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4

Saturday, October 13, 2012

Building upon the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 tuning package that was first revealed at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year, Mansory has released preliminary images and details for a new version that incorporates even wider usuage of the lightweight material carbon fiber. Named the Mansory Carbonado, but also referred to as the "Black Diamond" model, only six examples will be made.
In standard form the Aventador LP700-4 already uses carbon fiber extensively, but Mansory has replaced almost every exterior panel with the strong composite material showcasing its natural carbon fiber weave pattern. Carbon fiber body components are now found in the front bumper fascia, front lip spoiler, front fenders, hood, side sills, quarter panels, rear apron with integrated diffuser and large rear wing. Mansory also exchanged the roof and engine compartment covers with carbon fiber versions. As a result of the new fenders and quarter panels, the width has grown by 40 millimeters on the front axle and 50 millimeters on the rear axle.
For performance Mansory optimized the engine-management and added a high-performance exhaust system, providing 754 PS (555 kW / 743 bhp) at 8,300 rpm and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) compared to the standard 700 PS (515 kW / 690 bhp) at 8,250 rpm and 690 Nm (510 lb-ft). The 12-cylinder accelerates the Aventador from zero to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds. The top speed is also raised to 355 km/h (221 mph).
Mansory has put a lot of effort into the ultra-light forged rims with carbon-fiber inlays. They measure front to rear 9.0 x 20 and 13.0 x 21 with tires in the sizes VA 255/30 ZR20 and HA 345/25 ZR21.
Interior is given the special leather treatment on the seats and dashboard, a newly designed airbag sports steering wheel made out of real carbon fiber and non-slip aluminum pedals.
