Now there's been a slow trickle of Lamborghini Aventador SV reviews that have come out of the Barcelona-held press event. But, if I am honest, I have yet to read one that actually was good. They all were, "meh" at best.
Yesterday though, Auto Express published an all-new video featuring its newly acquired talent, Steve Sutcliffe. Formerly of Autocar, it's clear that Auto Express is ready to put him to work — this is the second clip I've seen him appear in for this British publication. Being that he used to race, he's a great data point when evaluating completely mental cars on track, like the all-new Lamborghini Aventadator SV.
So, how did it fair out? Here's some quick takeaways:
- It is fast. Really, really fast.
- The suspension set up is MUCH stiffer than the standard Aventador. If you're buying one for the roads, be prepared for some abuse.
- The steering rack is quite a bit sharper and more focused, BUT...
- It still feels, as Sutcliffe says when pushed to the limit, "like quite a big wagon."
- The good news is it is MUCH louder than the regular Aventador, so you have plenty of V12 goodness to drown out everything else.
