Earlier this week, Italian luxury sports car manufacturer Lamborghini, teased a picture of what could be the last of the Aventadors. The carmaker then showed a silhouette of two vehicles which are now revealed as the coupe and roadster trims of the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae.
According to Lamborghini, the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae is the celebration of the iconic V12 super sports car and combustion engine in a final production model.
“The Aventador LP 780-4 denotes the final, purest, timeless naturally aspirated production V12 Lamborghini,” says Automobili Lamborghini President and CEO Stephan Winkelmann.
He adds, “it delivers the essential 12-cylinder experience in terms of inimitable design, engineering solutions, and the most emotive driving experience, and is the definitive Aventador concluding an extraordinary era. It is the last of its kind: it delivers the maximum power and conclusive performance expected from Lamborghini’s current V12 engine, combined with our inimitable flagship’s design DNA. The Aventador was destined to become a classic from launch, and the Aventador LP 780-4 is the most beautiful expression of timeless design and technical solutions in a final edition: Ultimae.”

Fans will also be able to see the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae in the metal at the upcoming Goodwood Festival of Speed happening today July 8, until Sunday, July 11.
Outside, the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae features elegant lines and surfaces unique to the Aventador.
The frame boasts a carbon fiber monocoque with aluminum at the front and rear. Likewise, the body offers extensive use of carbon fiber materials specifically at the hood, rear air inlets, and spoiler. Other panels are in aluminum and synthetic material.
It measures 4,868mm long (a hair shorter than the current SVJ model), 2,273mm wide, and 1,136mm tall. Its wheelbase is at 2,700mm and the vehicle’s overall weight distribution is at 43 to 57 percent, front and rear. It will ride on 20- and 21-inch forged alloy wheels fitted with Pirelli PZero Corsa tires.
The Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae will be offered in 18 colors but customers can personalize their Aventadors through Lamborghini Ad Personam.
The coupe will be launched in a two-tone, gray-on-gray configuration.
On the other hand, the roadster will be launched in Blu Tawaret and Blu Nethuns colorway with the roof panels in high gloss black carbon fiber.
Beneath the bonnet sits the 12-cylinder, 6.5-liter “Longitudinale Posteriore” (LP) engine that can generate a maximum power of 770 horses at 720Nm of almost instantaneous torque. The Euro 6-compliant engine is mated to a seven-speed ISR (Independent Shifting Rods) gearbox that features an electronically controlled all-wheel-drive system (Haldex gen. IV) with rear mechanical self-locking differential.
This powertrain setup allows the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae to reach a top speed of 355kph, go from zero to 100kph in just 2.8 seconds, and likewise from standstill to 200kph in just 8.7 seconds.
Stopping power comes from carbon-ceramic brakes with fixed monoblock calipers in aluminum with six pistons (front) and four pistons (rear).
The Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae will be equipped with Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Attiva (LDVA). In addition, it will feature four driving modes including Strada, Sport, Corsa, and Ego.
Lamborghini also fitted the Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae with the latest driver and passenger amenities. Included are the customizable TFT digital dashboard displays as well as in-car connectivity and controls. Apple CarPlay is said to manage voice-activated features although the Lamborghini telemetry system is still optionally available.
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 780-4 Ultimae will have a limited run of 350 coupes and 250 roadsters. The price and date of launch are yet to be announced.
