Confirmed: the most radical variant of the Lamborghini Aventador will be called SVJ and could be the new king of the Nürburgring

Supercars are constantly striving to outdo themselves thanks to their manufacturers, who take care to showcase each new version in order to achieve better results. The Lamborghini Aventador has established itself as one of the supercars of the moment, and its longevity on the market has allowed it to rank among the most acclaimed. This is demonstrated not only by the healthy number of sales the most fearsome bull has recorded, but also by its imminent new variant, which was revealed in this teaser video that confirms its name will be SVJ.

For months we have seen a more radical version of the Aventador terrorising the asphalt of one of the most demanding circuits in the world, the Nürburgring. After several test mules and several attempts to deliver a hard blow to the competition, it seems that Lamborghini is now ready to unveil this new version of the Aventador to the world, one that carries the name of one of the most iconic vehicles of the Italian marque.

This video continues to show this formidable Aventador in its characteristic camouflage livery, which is designed to keep us from making out any details. However, the fact that Lamborghini itself published the video suggests we will be able to meet this new version very soon. At the same time, the video’s title is encouraging enough to think we could be looking at the new king of the Green Hell.

This would mean that the new Lamborghini Aventador SVJ has dethroned the impressive and unbeatable Porsche 911 GT2 RS, a model that currently enjoys the status of the fastest production vehicle at the Nürburgring. However, the new tuning of the SVJ, with significant aerodynamic changes and a power increase, could have been enough to make it one of the fastest vehicles in the world.

We suspect that its heart still hides the same 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 that has powered the Aventador since its debut, but that on this occasion its output has been raised to 800 CV. In this way, together with the new ALA aerodynamics already seen on its sibling, the Huracán Performante, we could be looking at a true circuit devourer. At the same time, and quite possibly, Lamborghini has included a dual-clutch automatic gearbox.

For now the Italian marque has not revealed any information beyond this teaser video, which prepares us to meet the new Aventador SVJ. Quite possibly, Lamborghini will take advantage of the upcoming Paris Motor Show to unveil in premiere this more aggressive, faster and more radical variant of its fiercest bull.
