Lamborghini Aventador Gets Mansory Carbon Fiber Suit
Carbon fiber offers weight saving benefits and good looks, a combination that German tuner Mansory used when putting together the Mansory Carbonado, essentially a Lamborghini Aventador packed with as much carbon fiber as would fit.
Not just upgrading the looks, Mansory added an optimized engine management system and high-performance exhaust, pushing the car’s power output to 754 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque. With the upgrades complete, including larger tires and ultra-lightweight carbon fiber trimmed rims, the Mansory Aventador will make the jump to 62 mph in just 2.8 seconds.
The cabin is outfitted with carbon fiber inlays, treated leather, and non-slip aluminum pedals to further advance the premium feel.
A new apron fitted with air intakes is the most visually prominent feature of the new carbon fiber suit, and the kit actually expands the car 40 millimeters in width over the front axle and 50 millimeters in over the back axle. New side sills help to direct air flow to the drive unit and rear brakes, and a larger spoiler on the back further adds downforce.
Only six examples will be made, and while pricing wasn’t announced the car is sure to command a healthy margin above its “normal” sibling..
