Lamborghini Aventador SVJ

The Lamborghini Aventador LP 770-4 SVJ (with SVJ standing for SuperVeloce Jota) is a limited-run, track-focused version of the Aventador S.

Overview

Unveiled at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, the Aventador SVJ (Super Veloce Jota) is a track focused iteration of the Aventador S and an improvement over the Aventador SV. The 6.5-litre L539 V12 engine used in the entire Aventador lineage has been reworked and now generates a maximum power output of 770 PS (566 kW; 759 hp) at 8,500 rpm and 720 N⋅m (531 lb⋅ft) of torque at 6,750 rpm. The weight saving measures such as the extensive use of carbon fibre and titanium in the exhaust system has brought the weight down to 1,525 kg (3,362 lb), giving the car a power-to-weight ratio of 1.98 kg/hp. The Aventador SVJ can accelerate from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.8 seconds and 0–200 km/h (0–124 mph) in 8.6 seconds and can attain a top speed of over 349 km/h (217 mph).

A prototype of the variant had previously made a new production car lap around the Nurburgring Nordschleife in July 2018, beating the previous record holder, the Porsche 911 GT2 RS by setting a lap time of 6:44.97 with Lamborghini test driver Marco Mapelli behind the wheel achieved by using the Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tyres available with the car as an option.

The Aventador SVJ is the first production V12 Lamborghini model to feature Lamborghini's Aerodynamica Lamborghini Attiva (ALA) system. This allows the car to achieve 40% more downforce than the Aventador SV and 1% reduction in the coefficient of drag. The system adds aerodynamic components to the car including a disconnected front splitter, tri-dimensional air outlet on the bonnet, a large carbon fibre rear wing with a central fin, underbody aero design with vortex generators, and a large rear diffuser. The system works in conjunction with Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Attiva 2.0 (LDVA 2.0) management system, which uses inertial sensors to control the car's aero in 500 milliseconds.

The Aventador SVJ "63 Edition", a special edition commemorating the company's year of foundation (1963), featuring a special white livery with the number 63 more prominent on the car would be first offered for sale which limited to just 63 units while the whole production run of the Aventador SVJ would be limited to just 963 units (coupe) and 863 units (roadster) in total including the 63 units, with deliveries starting in the beginning of 2019. In total, 1,863 units will be built.

Summary

The Lamborghini Aventador SVJ was added in the Sixth Anniversary Update as a high end Class S car with the following statistics:

• Starting rank: 1397
• MAX rank: 1613 (+216)
• MAX+PRO rank: 1820 (+207)
• Tuning Kit bonus: +54
• Stock to MAX+PRO rank difference: 423
• Nitro Efficiency: 5.5/12/13.5

Performance

At stock, the SVJ has a high top speed and good handling/drifting radius at the expense of acceleration and nitro.

The SVJ rivals the TRION NEMESIS, Arrinera Hussarya GT, Aston Martin Vulcan and Lamborghini Terzo Millennio.

Usage

The SVJ is largely a collector's car as it sees little use in TLEs, only being used for Lamborghini-only or S-Class events if the player does not have a faster vehicle.

The SVJ is also a poor choice for multiplayer at MAX+PRO as it will be put in races with the 2018 McLaren X2, Lamborghini Centenario or Koenigsegg Jesko, none of which it can compete with. At stock, the SVJ will be placed with low Class B-A or high-end Class C vehicles.

The SVJ had some use for credits grinding as its Season 9 race is set on Rapid Transit and could be completed in 51 seconds. This niche was lost in the March 2020 hotfix that reduced the base payout for most Career races.

Price

The Lamborghini Aventador SVJ can only be acquired through its R&D event. It was made available from March 20 to 30, 2020 at a price of  14,250.

Upgrades cost  3,591,000 while Pro Kits require  1,196,800, 32 Class S Parts each, 64 V12 Engines, 60 Mid-Techs, and 40 Advanced Techs.
