Lambo’s engineers have tuned the Aventador’s V12 to produce an additional 40 PS (39 HP) over its predecessor, for a total of 740 PS (730 HP) and 690 Nm (509 lb-ft) of torque. To achieve these numbers, the Variable Valve Timing and Variable Intake System have been optimized and the redline has been increased from 8,350 to 8,500 rpm.

Power is channeled to all four corners via the brand’s seven-speed transmission, and breaths through a new exhaust system, said to be 20 percent lighter. Tipping the scales at 1,575 kg (3,472 lbs) dry, the same as the outgoing model, the Aventador S needs 2.9 seconds to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) and can reach a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph). Its power-to-weight ratio, on the other hand, has been improved, and it now sits at 2.13 kg/hp.
