The Aventador’s successor is set to be the first supercar with a 100% carbon fiber front structure, including front-impact sections crafted from forged carbon.
According to Lamborghini, the carbon monofuselage is 10% lighter than the Aventador’s chassis, with the front frame being 20% lighter and offering a 25% increase in torsional stiffness compared to its predecessor.
The rear chassis is constructed from high-strength aluminum alloys, featuring two hollow castings in the rear dome area that integrate the rear suspension towers and powertrain suspension into a single component. This configuration reduces weight while enhancing rigidity.
The Aventador successor, codenamed LB744, will be Lamborghini’s initial High-Performance Electrified Vehicle (HPEV) supercar. Equipped with a new 6.5-liter V12 naturally aspirated engine delivering 814 hp @ 9250 rpm and 525 lb-ft of torque at 6750 rpm, the car also includes an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and two electric motors.
